STUDY OF THE GOVERNANCE OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY presents the following source proposition: Distributed among a network of nodes, the term distributed ledger technology (DLT) is also used to describe a system in which transactions are recorded from multiple places at the same time (on different nodes in the network) without a central data store. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that The distributed consensus model, in which network nodes verify and validate transactions before execution, makes it extremely rare for a fraudulent transaction to be recorded in the blockchain, and it does so without compromising the privacy of the parties. 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.
