Business model digitalization and decentralization through nonfungible tokens (NFTs): multicase research presents the following source proposition: Originality/value This study contributes to the specialized literature on the relationship between digital NFT innovation and related BM changes in different market niches within the digital marketplace ecosystem. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Blockchain-based smart contracts in digital marketplaces are the technology most likely to extend and lead the decentralization of the relationship between businesses and their counterparties. 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.
