PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS FOR DECISION-MAKING IN DECENTRALIZED SYSTEMS presents the following source proposition: The blockchain technology, on whichcryptocurrencies are based, is one of the most innovative and promising technologies in the market. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Legacy systems at private investment funds and banks are more expensive, more error prone, and slower than emerging blockchain technologies, a gap illustrated by the $1.7 trillion in processing fees banks charged in 2014. 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.
