The token-freeze command in Mintlayer allows the token authority to freeze all operations related to a specific token. This includes halting transfers, spends, and any other operations with the token. Note that the wallet (and the selected account within it) must possess the authority keys to execute this command.
Irreversible Action: If a token is set as
not-unfreezablefrozen, this action is permanent and cannot be reversed.
Note: To freeze a token on the Mintlayer Blockchain, 50 ML tokens are required to be burned. This amount will be automatically subtracted from your balance by the wallet.
