<h4>What is Verify Contract Address Ownership?</h4>
As an improvement to our previous NFT update process, users now can have their ownership of a contract address be verified and tied to their QUASA NFT account.
Previously, Quasa adopts a signed message method where the owner of the smart contract will need to sign a message claiming ownership of the particular contract for every submission.
The signed message is a security step to ensure that only you are the owner of the contract/key address that was used to create your NFT.
Moving forward, once a user has claimed ownership of a contract address, the user will be able to update their NFT information and address name tag without needing to sign a new message for future submissions.
The contract owner can verify ownership of multiple addresses under a single Quasa’s account.
<h3 id="to-have-an-address-verified-the-user-would-need">To have an address verified, the user would need :</h3>
<ol>
 <li>A&nbsp;QUASA NFT&nbsp;account</li>
 <li>To have signed a message once to verified ownership of each address</li>
</ol>
<h4>How to Verify Contract Address Ownership?</h4>
Verify NFT Ownership process involves verifying the ownership of a smart contract address with the&nbsp;address used to create the NFT and then linking the contract address to the owner's Quasa account.
Before claiming ownership of your contract address that was used to create the NFT and obtaining an NFT ownership certificate, make sure that:
<ul>
 <li>the source code has already been deployed onto the&nbsp;blockchain</li>
 <li>the source code has already been verified</li>
</ul>
The steps to verify your contract address ownership explained:
Step 1: Log into your QUASA NFT account (if you do not have an QUASA NFT account, you can sign up for an account <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quasa.androidapp&amp;gl" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.)
Step 2. After you are logged in, click "Verify NFT Ownership" in the menu, copy the signing message on the screen that opens.
Step 3. Go to <a href="https://mycrypto.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MyCrypto.com</a> and sign the copied message.
You will be provided options to sign the message with your wallet interface by clicking on the "Sign Message Manually" button or sign with Web3 (Metamask).
Sign this message with your key that was used to create the NFT. (This is a security step to ensure that only you are the owner of the contract/key address that was used to create your NFT.)
<h4>Follow the below steps to sign using Web3 (Metamask)</h4>
Step 1:&nbsp;Upon clicking on "Connect to Web3", you will be presented with the interface to log into your Metamask account.
