Home Ownership

                 Home Ownership

. Owner-occupancy or home-ownership is a form of housing tenure in which a person, called the owner-occupier, owner-occupant, or home owner, owns the home in which they live.[1] The home can be a house, such as a single-family house, an apartment, condominium, or a housing cooperative. In addition to providing housing, owner-occupancy also functions as a real estate investment


.  The home ownership rate is the ratio of owner-occupied units to total residential units in a specified area.[7][better source needed]

The connection between the token and the asset is what makes them unique. NFTs can be traded and exchanged for money, cryptocurrencies, or other NFTs—it all depends on the value the market and owners have placed on them. For instance, you could draw a smiley face on a banana, take a picture of it (which has metadata attached to it), and tokenize it on a blockchain. Whoever has the private keys to that token owns whatever rights you have assigned to it. Cryptocurrencies are similar to NFTs, in that both are secured on blockchain networks. The key difference is cryptocurrencies are fungible, or interchangeable. While there's no sig...
