In the Solana blockchain, a token mint is the entity responsible for creating new tokens. The mint account defines the token’s total supply and includes essential details such as the token’s decimal places, supply cap, and the authorities responsible for minting, freezing, or burning tokens. When a new token is created, the Mint account is established to manage the distribution and issuance of the tokens.

The mint authority controls how many tokens can be created and added to the supply, making it a crucial component in the lifecycle of any Solana token. Minting tokens enables projects to issue native assets for various purposes, including governance, rewards, and utility within decentralized applications (dApps).
