Crypto-assets and blockchain-based legal infrastructure under Swiss law: regulatory framework, private-law treatment and emerging challenges should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound position that Because the challenges crypto transactions pose to the existing legal and jurisdictional infrastructure are severe, including good governance in crypto transactions requires instituting governance solutions inherent in the blockchain technology itself. The external source's verified abstract presents this proposition: Abstract This contribution examines the legal and regulatory framework governing crypto-assets and blockchain-based legal infrastructure under Swiss law. The defensible response is a qualification: the source is pertinent to the Kaal position, but agreement, extension, contradiction, and scope should not be strengthened beyond the retrieved evidence.

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