# kaal:position:2026-08-08-224

**Affirmed position.** Provably secure, smart contract-based naming services identifies smart-contract storage size as the main implementation obstacle because stored information is the most expensive resource to access and modify and must be minimized for viability. This Greek-language abstract independently supports Kaal's blockchain-storage constraint. It concerns a naming-service construction and does not establish the full comparative-computation claim.

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

**Holds when.**

- 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: substantively reviewed abstract-level agreement.
- Primary mapping confidence: 0.62.
- The primary mapping cleared the automated ambiguity test; substantive scope remains review-bound.
- Evidence is limited to an exact proposition in a Crossref-indexed abstract; full text was not reviewed.
- No relationship is treated as external endorsement, citation, causation, or validation of a broader Kaal claim.
