In the digital age, many people believe they own their online presence, their followers, their content, and even their businesses. But do they really?

In this episode of Unpacking Blockchain with Thabiso Njoko, we explore the concept of digital ownership and how blockchain technology is reshaping the way individuals control their assets, identity, and data online.
