How to Revoke Mint Authority on a Solana Token

To revoke mint authority on a Solana token created with DexLab Minting Lab, open the token in Token Hub, select the Manage tab, open Update Mint Authority, check Remove Mint authority, and sign the transaction in your wallet. The same flow through the Update Freeze Authority card revokes freeze authority. Revocation is permanent and cannot be undone.

Revoking mint authority fixes the token supply forever, because no wallet can mint new tokens afterward. Revoking freeze authority permanently gives up the power to freeze the token accounts of holders. Both are common trust signals that traders look for before buying a new token.

How to Revoke Mint or Freeze Authority

  1. Open your token in Token Hub

    Go to Token Hub and open the page of your token. Connect the wallet that currently holds the authority you want to revoke; the authority cards stay disabled for any other wallet.

  2. Select the Manage tab

    The Manage tab lists every management action for the token. It is available for tokens created with the current DexLab Minting Lab; tokens created elsewhere show a notice instead.

  3. Open Update Mint Authority or Update Freeze Authority

    Each authority has its own card. The card shows an input for a new authority address, which you leave empty when revoking.

  4. Check "Remove Mint authority" (or "Remove Freeze authority")

    Ticking the checkbox disables the address input and shows the warning that removing the authority is permanent and cannot be undone.

  5. Sign the transaction

    The app simulates the transaction first and then asks your wallet to sign. Once the transaction confirms, the authority is set to none on-chain and the token page reflects it.

Revoking authority FAQ

What does revoking mint authority do?
It permanently removes the ability to mint new tokens. The total supply becomes fixed at its current amount, which is why a revoked mint authority is a common trust signal for buyers.
What does revoking freeze authority do?
It permanently removes the ability to freeze token accounts of the token. Nobody can lock holders out of transferring afterward. You can also launch without freeze authority in the first place: the DexLab create form ships with the freeze authority toggle off by default.Create a Solana token
Can I transfer an authority instead of revoking it?
Yes. The same card accepts a new authority address. Enter the address instead of ticking the remove checkbox, and the authority moves to that wallet. Revoke only when you want the power gone forever.
Is revoking reversible?
No. The interface warns that removing an authority is permanent and cannot be undone. Once the transaction confirms there is no way to restore the authority.
How much does revoking an authority cost?
A small Minting Lab service fee applies, defined per action by the on-chain fee configuration; tokens created through Minting Lab pay 50 percent of the standard fee. The Solana network fee is added on top, and your wallet shows the exact total before you sign.Token creation cost
Why is the Manage tab not available for my token?
The Manage tab covers tokens created with the current DexLab Minting Lab. Tokens created with the legacy version or outside DexLab show a notice instead of the management cards.
