Designing a Blockchain Model for the Paris Agreement’s Carbon Market Mechanism should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that The data mining that produces scarcity in existing blockchains also slows creation, so high speed transactions cannot be achieved for the foreseeable future without a different consensus design.

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