A non-sovereign asset is an asset whose value and existence are not directly controlled, issued, or guaranteed by a national government or central bank. Its price is determined by market supply and demand, often backed by code or decentralized consensus, rather than state decree. This type of asset operates independently of traditional fiat currency systems. It represents a store of value outside governmental influence.

Their rise challenges traditional monetary systems and sparks discussions about financial independence and inflation hedging. The increasing interest in non-sovereign assets by investors and institutions highlights a growing demand for financial instruments beyond state control, prompting regulatory responses and market adjustments.
