Decentralized Finance presents the following source proposition: Evolution in blockchain and cryptography technologies are the driving forces for decentralized finance’s growth. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Judging by the legal issues that arose around sharing platforms, blockchain-enabled sharing services will likely not be accepted quickly or without resistance from incumbents challenged by new ways of delivering a service or product. 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.
