The Digital Immune System presents the following source proposition: This chapter argues that robust governance enables innovation and is a source of competitive advantage. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that By 2019 the ICO market had lost its defining advantage over venture capital: because most ICOs between 2018 and 2019 imposed one to three year lockups, neither market offered early liquidity to investors or issuers, making the two substantively similar. 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.
