Agentic Commerce: The Paradigm Shift from Human-Mediated to Autonomous AI-Driven Transactions in Digital Payment Systems should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Even if every user and supporter of the blockchain and their locations were known, it would still not be possible to exercise jurisdiction in the traditional meaning of the word, because the system operates largely autonomously. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through agentic commerce, 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.
