How to Revoke Authority

Connect Wallet

Connect the wallet that holds the mint authority or freeze authority for your token. You must be the current authority holder to revoke.

Select Token & Authority

Enter your token's mint address. Choose which authority to revoke — mint authority (controls supply), freeze authority (controls account freezing), or both.

Revoke & Verify

Click Revoke and approve the transaction (0.1 SOL each). The authority is permanently removed on-chain. Verify on Solana Explorer — the authority field will show as null.
