Revoke Mint Authority on Solana for SPL Token and Token-2022 Mints

A token's supply can no longer grow once you revoke mint authority on Solana, because minting needs that authority. Tokens from any tool work, on SPL Token or Token-2022, and the authority's own wallet signs the revoke. A mint authority revoke on Tokenry costs 0.05 SOL, plus Solana's network fee.

How it works

Steps to revoke mint authority from a Solana token

  1. 1

    Phantom, Solflare or another wallet holding mint authority

    Connect the wallet whose address is set as that authority on the token. Holding a balance of the token does not give a wallet that authority.

  2. 2

    Enter the mint address and check who holds each authority

    Paste the token address (its mint address) or pick it from "Your tokens", which lists tokens your wallet holds. The tag beside mint authority should read "You hold this".

  3. 3

    Mint authority review and wallet approval

    Check the "After this" row, which reads "Nobody, permanently", next to the token's program and the fees. Press Revoke Mint Authority, then approve the transaction in your wallet.

How to Revoke Mint, Freeze & Update Authority on Solana

Revoking a token's authorities locks it down so no one can mint more supply, freeze wallets, or change its name. Here is how to revoke mint, freeze, and update authority on Solana, no-code or by CLI.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Something not covered here? Contact support.

Can mint authority be restored after it is revoked?

The revoke is irreversible, because the mint is left with no authority that could sign a change back. Mint every amount you still plan to issue, such as tokens for an airdrop or a liquidity pool, before you revoke.

What do I pay to revoke mint authority on Solana?

The service fee to Tokenry is 0.05 SOL, plus Solana's network fee. Both are paid in the revoke's own transaction, so if it fails or expires, no service fee is charged. Once one revoke lands, any retry fails because the mint authority is already none, so the fee is never charged twice.

Does Raydium flag a token that keeps its mint authority?

Raydium's interface does. Per Raydium's docs on token risks, pools whose token still has a mint authority get a MINT tag. A revoke sets that authority to none, which removes the reason for the tag.

Can holders still transfer the token after mint authority is revoked?

Holders keep their balances and can send, receive and trade the token as before. The revoke removes one permission on the mint, so no holder's token account is touched and no tokens are burned or moved.

The details

More about how to revoke mint authority

01

Token supply with the mint authority set to none

Mint authority controls who can mint new tokens of an SPL token. A revoke calls the token program's SetAuthority instruction and sets that authority to none. From then on, no wallet, Tokenry's included, can add to the supply, though holders can still burn their own tokens. The guide to what revoking mint authority means covers the term in depth.

Both Solana token programs are supported, SPL Token and Token-2022. The SPL Token CLI command spl-token authorize <MINT_ADDRESS> mint --disable, shown in the SPL Token docs, sets the same authority to none.

02

Who signs the revoke and what Tokenry checks

Tokenry's server reads the mint on-chain before it builds the revoke. It stops with "Your wallet is not the mint authority for this token" or "This token's mint authority is already revoked" when either applies. Otherwise it builds an unsigned transaction with your wallet as the fee payer, and nothing moves until that wallet signs.

Your signed transaction is checked and simulated on the server first, and a revoke that fails the simulation is never broadcast. Rejecting the request in your wallet, or pressing "Try again" after an error, returns the page to the review step. A confirmed revoke shows "View on Solscan", which opens the transaction.

03

Freeze and update authority after the mint revoke

This revoke leaves the token's freeze authority and update authority with their current holders. Removing either takes its own signed transaction, and after this one confirms, the confirmation screen links to each one your wallet still holds.

Freeze authority can still freeze holder token accounts until you revoke freeze authority. Update authority can edit the token metadata; the update authority revoke works on Token-2022 tokens whose metadata sits on the mint itself. When you create a new token, the Solana token creator can remove mint authority at that point too, as part of its 0.15 SOL fee.
