Tokens Matter: How to Win Votes and Influence DAOs presents the following source proposition: DAO governance is commonly mediated using ‘governance tokens’ in a one-token-one-vote system. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Reputation voting has two advantages over one token one vote: it is non fungible, which avoids corruptive elements, and it aligns incentives for members individually and for the institution as a whole at the same time. 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.
