Money Laundering Through DeFi and DAOs: A New Zone of Regulatory Blindness and the Limits of International Enforcement presents the following source proposition: The study also explores emerging legal practice, including sanctions actions against mixers, cases against developers, and attempts to extend liability to DAO governance participants. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Without a legal wrapper, DAOs face potential regulatory enforcement actions and civil liability not only at the organization level but against individual participants. 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.

• The response is limited to the retrieved source proposition and mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
• External evidence level: abstract indexed.
• Mapping review tier: moderate-confidence claim review.
• Primary mapping confidence: 0.4155.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
