Real ownership means one thing: nobody else can take it away from you. If there's someone out there with the power to flip a switch and strip you of what's yours, then you never truly owned it in the first place. That's the whole point—genuine control, genuine sovereignty. It's not just about having something; it's about having the power to keep it.

True ownership means others can't touch your stuff; otherwise, it's a joke.

That's right, this is true ownership. But in reality, who has truly held it?

Well said, this is the core of Web3. Without true control, it's just self-deception.

At the end of the day, it's still that saying: true assets are assets, everything else is an illusion. My wallet, only I can be the master of.

That was a bit harsh, but it really hit the pain points of traditional finance.

That's correct. True ownership means no one can touch your belongings; otherwise, it's just an illusion.

lmao "genuine sovereignty" until the exchange gets hacked or you lose your seed phrase to a phishing link... then what? actually if you read the smart contract's fine print, most people are one bad transaction away from proving this whole thing wrong
