Blockchain in accounting, accountability and assurance: an overview presents the following source proposition: Design/methodology/approach The authors present a review focussing on the papers published in this special issue. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that As of the publication of this article, a review of published court opinions showed that no court had reviewed, assessed, or scrutinized the uses and applications of blockchain technology. 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.
