Because these assets are kept on blockchain, one does not have to be concerned regarding their safety. What's more? You would be the sole owner of these assets. Thus, the creator or developer would not be able to claim ownership. Furthermore, users have unlimited opportunities to earn money through the blockchain. Here's a glimpse.
