DeFi Governance and Decision-Making on Blockchain presents the following source proposition: The paper reviews the literature on traditional finance governance models and blockchain-based governance mechanisms in DeFi platforms, and discusses the challenges and opportunities in designing decentralized governance models for DeFi platforms. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Decentralized finance and participatory governance models create their own problems, specifically unresolved regulatory frameworks and ethical considerations, so decentralization is not a costless substitute for existing institutional arrangements. 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.
