**Affirmed position.** Blockchain applications for legal metrology presents the following source proposition: Blockchain technology has become a promising approach in many domains. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Once blockchain technology gains wider acceptance and its applications reach consumers, existing legal processes and structures will likely be among the first processes to become redundant. 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.
