# Transfer Token Ownership

With Freewallet you are able to transfer Token Ownership. Token Ownership is a representation of control over issuance and description of your token on Counterparty. \
\ <mark style="color:yellow;">Token Ownership is also somewhat of the last cryptographic control an asset has even if the supply has been entirely destroyed or lost.</mark> \
\
Subassets can still be minted with Token Ownership even if the original token supply is permanently 0 and the description of the asset can still be changed or updated. Though all records of changes to the description of this token are still public and cannot be changed.\
\
Some artistic Counterparty projects requires sending Token Ownership to a 'burn address' to restrict the token being changed in the future, so it is useful to know how to use this function.
