Tokens Matter: How to Win Votes and Influence DAOs presents the following source proposition: A growing body of IS literature examines the decentralized, transparent, and equitable design of these organizations. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Quadratic voting remains open to manipulation and strategic voting, and it depends on a robust and transparent voting system to count votes accurately. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.

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