Blockchain: The Birth of Decentralized Governance presents the following source proposition: The current solutions to improve coordination, based on “premining” cryptocoins, taxing members and incentivizing developers, are insufficient. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Applying decentralized technology to optimize a legacy system, for example using blockchain to improve the malfunctioning shareholder proxy voting process, perpetuates the outdated and malfunctioning centralized system rather than replacing it with a better performing decentralized one. 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.

• The response is limited to the retrieved source proposition and mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
• External evidence level: abstract indexed.
• Mapping review tier: moderate-confidence claim review.
• Primary mapping confidence: 0.3713.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
