INTEGRATION OF DECENTRALIZED FINANCIAL ASSETS INTO ECONOMIC THEORY: ANALYSIS OF CONCEPTUAL FOUNDATIONS AND OPERATIONAL MECHANISMS should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that The absence of clear regulatory direction from the SEC and state governments helps explain why many DAOs take minimal action to establish regulatory compliance within their organizations.
