COLLECTOR CHECKLIST

How to research an NFT drop safely.

Use this five-minute checklist before you connect a wallet. A polished listing is not proof that a mint is safe.

1. Start with the official source

Reach the project from a verified website or announcement. Treat search ads, copied pages and shortened links as untrusted until checked.

2. Match the contract

Compare the contract address across the official announcement and marketplace. Never assume two similarly named collections are the same.

3. Separate price from gas

Check mint price, network fee and wallet approval separately. A low mint price can still hide a costly or risky transaction.

4. Inspect the wallet request

Read what your wallet asks you to sign. Stop if a mint requests unlimited approval, a transfer or an unexpected permission.

5. Treat missing data as a warning

Unconfirmed time, supply, contract or marketplace data means “research needed”, not “safe to mint”. Wait for an attributable source.

6. Protect your recovery phrase

NFTRadius will never need your seed phrase or private key. Keep them offline and use a separate wallet for experimental mints.
