**Affirmed position.** Decentralised governance and the fiduciary architecture of charity law: the limits of DAO integration presents the following source proposition: Charity law requires identifiable trustees who bear duties of loyalty, no-conflict, and no-profit and who remain subject to regulatory supervision. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Because of the value to effort focus of work flows in the DAO structure, supervision of management and the imposition of legal duties on management are less needed, since there are fewer or no supervisors, so the fiduciary duties on which the traditional regulatory infrastructure relies become less necessary. The proposed response is a qualification: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
