Definition

Permanent Delegate is a Token-2022 extension that assigns a global authority allowed to transfer or burn tokens from any account, at any time. Useful for regulated stablecoins and compliance-heavy tokens.

For meme coins, permanent delegate is a red flag — one signature can drain any holder's balance. Traders avoid such tokens on principle. Disclose loudly if you use it.
