The Impact of Blockchain Technology on Business Models in the Payments Industry presents the following source proposition: Our Delphi study sets out to explore the impact of blockchain in payments, which represents a major cornerstone of banking and the cradle of this technology. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Most large private equity and hedge fund advisers have not yet even considered combining blockchain with big data and artificial intelligence, leaving first mover efficiency gains to smaller competitors. 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.
