Freeze a Solana Token Account
Stop one wallet transferring your token, or unfreeze it again. Needs the freeze authority.
Wallet not connected
Connect your wallet to freeze or unfreeze a holder. You sign every action yourself, and nothing is custodial.
Common questions
What does freezing a token account actually do?
It stops one wallet from transferring one specific token. They keep the tokens and the balance is untouched, but they cannot send, sell or swap them until the account is thawed. It does not affect their SOL, their other tokens, or anything else in their wallet.
Can I unfreeze a wallet afterwards?
Yes. Freezing is fully reversible for as long as you still hold the freeze authority: thaw the same address and everything works again. What is not reversible is revoking the freeze authority itself, which is a different action on a different page.
Should I keep the freeze authority at all?
For most community tokens, no. It is the authority buyers distrust most, because its existence means someone can stop them selling, and our Rug Check counts it against a token while it is live. Most credible projects revoke it. Keep it only if you have a concrete reason you would be willing to defend publicly.
Can I freeze every holder at once?
Not from this tool, which does one address per action. Freezing many at once is the separate Bulk Freeze tool, which works from a list you check before anything is signed. They are kept apart on purpose: freezing a whole holder base is something nobody should be able to do casually.
Does freezing let me take someone's tokens?
No. Freezing prevents transfers and nothing more. The tokens remain owned by that wallet the entire time and there is no authority on a standard SPL token that moves another wallet's balance to you. Freezing is a lock, not a seizure.
The freeze authority was revoked. Can I get it back?
No. Revoking is permanent for the freeze authority exactly as it is for the mint authority. Once it is gone, no wallet can ever freeze an account for that token again, which is usually the point.
Read this before you use it
This is the most sensitive tool on the site. Freezing is public and on-chain against a named wallet, so use it only where you could explain it by address in public: a confirmed exploit, a legal obligation, a closed test. A frozen account still owns its tokens and gets them back the moment it is thawed. Freezing is a lock, not a seizure.
If your token should never be freezable, go to Revoke Authorities and give up the freeze authority for good. After that the Rug Checker reports it clean on that count.
