**Affirmed position.** The Promise and Perils of Corporate Governance-by-Design in Blockchain-Based Collectives: The Case of dOrg presents the following source proposition: Second, the chapter demonstrates how dOrg addresses agency problems by way of corporate governance-by-design. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Applying blockchain to corporate governance requires the relevant authorities, who most likely understand the governance use case but not the technology, to reach consensus on how and when to implement it. 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.
