GOVERNING ISLAMIC EDUCATION IN A DECENTRALIZED SYSTEM: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS, ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOLS, AND PESANTREN IN WEST SUMATRA should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Jurisdiction over the public blockchain does not exist within the present doctrinal infrastructure for jurisdiction, and in practice the blockchain cannot be regulated or governed because it is decentralized and autonomous. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through decentralization governance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
