Political and Economic Implications of Blockchain Technology in Business and Healthcare presents the following source proposition: Like information sharing was catalyzed on the pre-blockchain internet, transactions are now triggered on the new internet of value. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Blockchain extends what the Internet did for information: it makes it possible to transfer and exchange value and assets without traditional centralized intermediaries, by storing information in a decentralized, accessible and secure online environment. 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: 0.3994.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
