How wallet connection works

This app uses your wallet to sign transactions securely. We never have access to your private keys or funds. You remain in full control at all times.

Revoke Token Authority

Permanently give up control your buyers worry about: minting more supply, freezing wallets, and changing the token. Each revoke is a signed, on-chain trust signal anyone can verify.

0.1
SOL per authority
Forever
irreversible
1 approval
confirm in wallet

What this does: a brand-new token leaves you holding three powers - mint authority (create more tokens), freeze authority (freeze holder wallets), and update authority (change the name, symbol or image). Revoking them removes those powers for good, which is exactly what serious buyers check for before they ape in.

This is irreversible. Once an authority is revoked you can never get it back. New to this? Read the revoke authority guide first.

Connect your wallet to begin

Use the Connect Wallet button in the header. You must connect with the wallet that currently holds the authority you want to revoke.

The three authorities, and what revoking each one proves

Mint authority

Whoever holds it can create new tokens at any time, which dilutes every holder. Revoking it sets the mint authority to none on-chain, so the supply you launched with is the supply forever. Keep it only if your plan genuinely needs new supply later, such as staking rewards, and say so publicly.

Freeze authority

Whoever holds it can freeze any holder's token account so they cannot sell. It is the setting honeypot tokens rely on, so most buyers and scanners will not touch a token that still has it. Revoking it means no wallet can ever be frozen.

Update authority

This one belongs to the Metaplex metadata, not the token itself. Whoever holds it can change the name, symbol, logo and links. Revoking it makes the metadata immutable, which stops anyone rebranding the token after people have bought it. Check that your logo and links are right first, because they are locked from then on.

Checking it worked

On Solscan, a revoked mint or freeze authority shows as empty on the token's page, and revoked update authority shows the metadata as not mutable. Anyone can check this, which is the point: it turns "trust us" into something buyers can verify themselves. The free rug checker reads all three for any token.

Revoking authority: common questions

How much does it cost to revoke authority on a Solana token?
Here it is 0.1 SOL per authority you revoke, with the network fee covered. Authorities that are already revoked are shown as done and cost nothing.
Can I get an authority back after revoking it?
No. Revoking sets the authority to none, and there is no instruction that can set it again. That permanence is exactly why it counts as proof.
Which authorities should I revoke before adding liquidity?
Mint and freeze at the very least, because those are what rug checkers flag first. Revoke update authority too once your name, logo and links are final.
Why can this tool not revoke some authorities?
It can only revoke an authority held by the connected wallet, or by our minting wallet on older tokens created here. If a third wallet holds it, only that wallet can revoke it.
Does revoking affect my holders or the pool?
No. Balances, trading and the liquidity pool are unaffected. Revoking only removes the power to change the token later.
