Blockchain Consensus Mechanisms: A Bibliometric Analysis (2014–2024) Using VOSviewer and R Bibliometrix presents the following source proposition: Blockchain consensus mechanisms play a critical role in ensuring the security, decentralization, and integrity of distributed networks. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Trust and security in digital financial systems and decentralized networks cannot survive the arrival of quantum computing without quantum resistant cryptographic protocols, making the shift to quantum safe cryptography a precondition for the quantum economy rather than an optional upgrade. 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.
