Using Blockchain for Business & Marketing Improvement presents the following source proposition: Typically, trusted third parties have intervened to ensure the trust required for different business transactions. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Peer-to-peer transactions are possible because a distributed consensus model has network nodes verify, validate and audit transactions before and after execution, and this is often safer than routing transactions through a single trusted third-party intermediary. 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.
