Solana Token Snapshot Tool
Export all token holders as CSV for airdrops and analytics. Non-custodial, 0.02 SOL, no signup required.
What Is a Token Snapshot?
A token snapshot is a point-in-time export of every wallet that holds a specific SPL token, along with their balances. Snapshots are essential for airdrops, governance distributions, and holder analytics. Without a snapshot, you'd have to manually query the Solana RPC for every token account — a slow and error-prone process.
The CreateSolana snapshot tool queries the Solana blockchain via dedicated RPC nodes, collects every token account for your mint, and exports the results as a clean CSV file with wallet address and balance columns.
How the Snapshot Tool Works
- Enter your mint address — the tool validates it against the SPL Token program.
- Query all holders — dedicated RPC nodes paginate through every token account.
- Download CSV — get a spreadsheet with address, balance, and percentage of supply.
The tool charges 0.02 SOL per snapshot regardless of holder count. For tokens with tens of thousands of holders, this is dramatically cheaper than running your own indexer. The CSV is ready to paste directly into our Multisender tool for instant airdrops.
Use Cases
Airdrops to existing holders, governance token distributions, holder concentration analysis, whale tracking, and community engagement metrics. If you've just launched a token with our Token Creator, a snapshot lets you see exactly who's holding and plan your next distribution.
Accuracy and Limitations
The snapshot reflects balances at the time of query — it is not a historical snapshot at a specific block. For historical snapshots, you'd need an archive RPC node. The tool excludes accounts with zero balances by default but can include them if needed. Large holder counts (50,000+) may take 30-60 seconds to complete.
Best Practices for Token Snapshots
Take your snapshot at a strategic time. If you're planning an airdrop, snapshot before announcing it to prevent users from gaming the distribution by buying tokens after the announcement and selling immediately after. The snapshot captures a point-in-time state, so once it's exported, the balances are frozen in your CSV regardless of subsequent on-chain activity. This is the Solana equivalent of a "snapshot block" on Ethereum.
Clean your CSV before using it for airdrops. Remove known exchange hot wallets, team wallets, and liquidity pool addresses if you don't want to airdrop to them. The snapshot tool includes the percentage of total supply for each holder, making it easy to identify and filter out whale wallets or concentrated holdings. You can also sort by balance to exclude dust holders (wallets with negligible amounts) who may not be genuine community members.
Always verify the mint address before running a snapshot. Solana mint addresses are case-sensitive base58 strings, and a single character error will return an empty or incorrect result. The tool validates the address against the SPL Token program, but double-checking against Solscan or Solana Explorer ensures you're snapshotting the correct token. If your token has a Token-2022 mint, make sure the tool supports querying Token-2022 accounts — the CreateSolana snapshot tool handles both programs automatically.
How Much Does a Token Snapshot Cost?
The CreateSolana token snapshot tool charges a flat 0.02 SOL per snapshot, regardless of the number of holders. Whether your token has 10 holders or 100,000, the price is the same. This makes it dramatically cheaper than running your own indexer or paying for premium RPC access to paginate through token accounts manually.
There are no additional network fees charged to you — the 0.02 SOL covers the RPC query costs. The CSV file is delivered as a direct download immediately after the query completes. For tokens with very large holder counts (50,000+), the query may take 30-60 seconds, but the price remains the same. If the query fails due to an RPC error, you can retry at no additional cost.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I take a snapshot at a specific past block?
The standard snapshot tool queries current balances at the time of the request. Historical snapshots at a specific block height require an archive RPC node, which retains full state history. If you need a historical snapshot, contact us — we can run archive queries for an additional fee. For most airdrop use cases, a current snapshot is sufficient since you control when to take it.
Does the snapshot include Token-2022 token holders?
Yes. The CreateSolana snapshot tool queries both the classic SPL Token program and the Token-2022 program. When you enter a mint address, the tool automatically detects which program the token belongs to and queries the appropriate token account list. The CSV format is identical regardless of the underlying token program.
Can I export the snapshot in a format other than CSV?
The primary export format is CSV, which is compatible with virtually all spreadsheet applications and can be pasted directly into our Multisender tool. The CSV includes columns for wallet address, token balance, and percentage of total supply. If you need JSON or another format for programmatic use, you can easily convert the CSV using any standard data processing tool.
