Blockchain state-of-the-art: architecture, use cases, consensus, challenges and opportunities presents the following source proposition: Blockchain is a chain of blocks where each block contains a set of transactions that are digitally signed by its verifier and stored across the distributed network so that all the legitimate stakeholders can access/verify them. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that The distributed consensus model, in which network nodes verify and validate transactions before execution, makes it extremely rare for a fraudulent transaction to be recorded in the blockchain, and it does so without compromising the privacy of the parties. 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.
