**Affirmed position.** THE MAPPING OF LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN DECENTRALIZED GOVERNANCE ERA presents the following source proposition: This paper summarizes the relationship between decentralized governance and local economics development, and the mapping of LED’s concept at the country that implemented decentralized governance model. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Bitcoin proved that a decentralized digital representation of value is possible, but it is not efficient enough for wide use because the rest of a decentralized economic environment does not yet exist around it. 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.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
