The Transaction Supply Chain
His LAN article is Issue 1/Transaction Supply Chain. Logos has published a related article, "PriFi and the Incomplete Institution: Securing the Transaction Supply Chain" (15 September 2026). It argues that blockchains protect settlement well but leave the other stages of a transaction exposed, from discovery and negotiation to enforcement. See PriFi.
