Understanding ownership records
Ownership records deserves its own verification step when working with NFT Basics. Do not rely only on a familiar label or a default selection in the interface. Consider the active network, the destination or contract, the current on-chain state and the result you actually expect. For transfers, signatures or approvals, review the address, network, amount, gas information, contract or permission scope before confirmation. Afterward, use the transaction record or an appropriate block explorer to verify what happened. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed unilaterally by a wallet, so prevention matters more than recovery.
In a real NFT Basics workflow, ownership records should not be treated as an isolated field. Read it together with the active network, the source of the asset, the destination, the party initiating the request and the expected on-chain result. If any part differs from what you intended, stop before confirming and verify the source and parameters instead of trying repeated approvals.
Keep verifiable on-chain references such as transaction hashes, contract addresses and network names when they are relevant. A web page that asks for a seed phrase, private key or verification code should be treated as a serious warning sign. Legitimate support should not request those secrets, and a wallet cannot reset or recover a private key on behalf of the user.
How contracts and collections affects the workflow
Contracts and collections deserves its own verification step when working with NFT Basics. Do not rely only on a familiar label or a default selection in the interface.

- Confirm that the action matches your goal for contracts and collections
- Verify the address, network and amount before a transfer
- Review the target and permission scope before signing or approving
- Check transaction history and on-chain status after completion
Working with transaction approvals
Transaction approvals deserves its own verification step when working with NFT Basics. Do not rely only on a familiar label or a default selection in the interface.

Common risks and risk checks
