Note: The tool only tell you the origin of a NFT which can help you to verify it manually. It will not tell you whether a NFT is a real or fake.

You can manually verify the NFT's authenticity via the creator address & mint address.
On Solscan, we can compare the creator addresses with another NFT on a verified NFT collection in a marketplace such as solanart.io.
- Head to solanart.io & select the collection. In this example we are using Degen Ape Academy which has a verified collection of Degen Apes.
