    3. Choose the function mintwithURI and fill the form with specified "to address" and "token id". (The address is in hex format, you have to use the base58/hex decoder to transfer it to a base58 format)

    4. Choose the contract sender address as "Sender Address", since only the contract owner can mint new tokens.
