**Affirmed position.** Decentralized Autonomous Organizations: Is a New Liability Regime Possible? Current Landscape of German and Turkish Company Law and a New Liability Regime Recommendation presents the following source proposition: One of the most crucial issues pertaining to DAOs is liability, which is related to their legal nature. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that A jurisdiction is only truly favorable to DAOs if it grants the DAO limited liability as an entity and accepts its independent status without requiring any representative in that jurisdiction. 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.
