Context

While attempting to register as a dRep, I mistakenly entered text into the payment address field. When I cleared the payment address, an error message appeared that prevented me from proceeding with the registration. Here, the payment address field behaves as if it is required, unlike the link field, where clearing the text does not trigger an invalid URL error

Steps to reproduce

1. Connect your wallet.
2. Navigate to dRep registration process.
3. Enter some text into the payment address field and then clear it.

Actual behavior

Clearing the payment address field results in an invalid payment address error message, which prevents continuation of the dRep registration process.

Expected behavior

The payment address field should be optional, so clearing it should not trigger an error message.
