Blockchain technology and money laundering presents the following source proposition: A significant part of the paper is dedicated to an introduction to DLT - (Distributed Ledger Technologies), i.e. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Digitized and automated trust is not a stable substitute for institutional trust, because it is experiencing crises of its own that undermine the proliferation of value enhancing internet based platform businesses and distributed ledger technology businesses. 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.
