**Affirmed position.** Decentralised governance and the fiduciary architecture of charity law: the limits of DAO integration presents the following source proposition: Although DAOs promise transparency, participation and coordination through blockchain-based governance, which should appeal to charities, uptake within the sector remains limited. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that DAO members owe each other duties of good faith, transparency and loyalty within the scope of the DAO Agreement, which imports fiduciary style obligations into a relationship that would otherwise be purely contractual. 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.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
