Digital autonomy signifies an individual’s or entity’s capacity to govern their digital identity, data, and assets independently. This concept refers to the ability to operate within digital environments, particularly blockchain networks, free from centralized control or intermediation. It involves direct ownership and management of cryptographic keys, self-sovereign identity credentials, and digital asset holdings. Achieving digital autonomy minimizes reliance on third-party custodians or platforms, thereby enhancing individual control over one’s digital presence and financial resources.
