I think there is a misconception. Most of the time you don't own the digital asset. This is an intentional quirk around money, contracts, etc. You have the right to use it in the present form through the platform as long as the platform has a contract with the IP owner to enable that.

For this to change there either needs to be incentive for the platform and IP owners or there needs to be legal changes to require it.

Also, blockchain means that anyone who has your ID can know you entire catalog of ownership. This removes privacy.
