Private Property Rights

Definition

Private Property Rights legally define an individual’s or entity’s exclusive authority to own, use, control, and dispose of assets, whether tangible or intangible. In the context of digital assets, this refers to the ownership of cryptocurrencies, tokens, and other digital representations secured by cryptographic keys. These rights are fundamental to economic systems, providing incentives for investment and innovation. They are often protected by legal frameworks and constitutional provisions.
