**Affirmed position.** Analysis of the Application of Blockchain Technology in Banking presents the following source proposition: Blockchain technology provides a decentralized KYC process, enhances transparency and security in shareholding management, and facilitates the establishment of a decentralized governance structure within banks. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Blockchain technology enables managers to charge per transaction fees, which undermines the existing 2/20 fee model, because it facilitates seamless and efficient calculation of management fees per transaction. 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.
