Address verification

Understand the type of address verification

Updated over a month ago

Utila displays two types of verified addresses:

  • Verified by the admin quorum

  • Verified by Utila

1. Verified by the Admin Quorum (cryptographically signed)

Your address book is cryptographically signed by your admin quorum. This makes every approved address tamper-proof, verifiable, and under your full control. Each address book entry is an exchange deposit address.

  • Your admin quorum has signed the address with their security keys.

  • The signature is verified on your mobile device, proving it matches the digital fingerprint created during approval.

  • The address is marked with a green check mark.

  • Any change to the address, name or blockchain breaks the signature, and the system requires a new quorum approval, ensuring nothing can be altered silently.

  • This keeps you trustless, since neither Utila nor any malicious actor can modify or replace the address without detection.

2. Verified by Utila (system-verified)

  • The address is known to Utila and was checked by the system or the team.

  • The address is marked with a blue or black check mark. A black tick is for a Utila Link address.

  • This is helpful for clarity, but not signed by your admin quorum.

  • This is not fully trustless, since Utila is still the source of truth.
