Implementation of smart contracts in international business activities presents the following source proposition: The complexity of business operations in the global economy is rising, necessitating new approaches to contractual relationship management. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Smart contract arrangements involving several parties and greater complexity require the verifiable and unhackable system that blockchain technology supplies. 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.
