# What is True Ownership? True Asset Ownership in gaming is a transformative concept that radically changes players' relationship with their in-game items. Before blockchain technology, assets were owned by game publishers and players could access their items, but did not truly "own" them. We have seen many examples[^1][ ](https://gamerant.com/call-duty-warzone-shutdown-cosmetics-skins-gone-what-happens/)where game publishers removed access to assets previously thought to be owned by players. True Asset Ownership means players have sovereignty over the assets they earn or purchase. They can hold, sell, or even burn those items if they choose. They truly own the assets. ### True Ownership in Aavegotchi Aavegotchi has a deep and diverse array of onchain game items. All items can be traded natively with no restrictions via the Aavegotchi Dapp. * [GHST Token](/own/tokens/ghst-token.md) is the official governance token of Aavegotchi. Holding it grants players voting power within [AavegotchiDAO](/governance/about-aavegotchidao.md). * [Aavegotchis](/own/game-items/aavegotchis.md) are the primary onchain asset of Aavegotchi. Currently, there are only 25,000 of them, with no plans to mint more. You'll definitely want to own one of these, if you can. * [Portals](/own/game-items/portals.md) are mystery boxes that contain random Aavegotchis inside. Most of the Portals have been opened, but there are still some unopened ones that may contain rare Aavegotchis. * [Wearables](/own/game-items/wearables.md) are equippable onchain assets that power up your Aavegotchi and make it more stylish. There are hundreds of Wearables to choose from, so dig in! * [The Forge](/own/game-items/the-forge.md) is not a single asset, but a class of onchain assets that allow players to craft new Wearables. * [Gotchiverse](/own/game-items/gotchiverse.md) includes all of the assets playable in the Aavegotchi "Gotchiverse" game, the official metaverse of our gaming universe. Visit the [Aavegotchi Baazaar](https://dapp.aavegotchi.com/baazaar/aavegotchis), the official marketplace of Aavegotchi, to learn more and make your first purchase.
