**Affirmed position.** Digital assets, personal property and categorisation states that digital assets disrupt the traditional two-category classification of personal property. This identifies the classification problem to which Kaal's definition of a Digital Object as rival digital information supplies a proposed property-style response. The source does not endorse that definition or establish that rivalry resolves every property question.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-08-08
