Solana Mobile will roll out a native token called SKR at the start of next year, a move that ties a new crypto asset directly to the company’s Seeker smartphone and its growing app network.
According to the company’s own blog and subsequent reports, SKR is being positioned as a governance and incentive token for people who use, build for, or operate parts of the platform.
Solana Mobile Confirms SKR Launch
Solana Mobile confirmed that SKR will launch in January 2026 and that the total supply will be 10 billion SKR. The announcement appeared on the company’s official channels and was widely picked up by crypto news outlets.
SKR Tokenomics
The total SKR supply is 10 billion SKR.

Token Distribution And Staking
Reports have disclosed a detailed split of that 10 billion. Some 30% is reserved for airdrops. 25% goes to growth and partnerships. 10% is set aside for liquidity and launch, another 10% for a community treasury, and 15% for Solana Mobile itself, etc.
This arrangement puts a large chunk of supply into the hands of users and partners from day one, with a sizeable allocation kept for the company and its parent.
How SKR Will Be UsedAccording to the Solana Mobile post, SKR will be used to reward builders and reinforce device security, and it will help coordinate how the dApp Store and related services work on Seeker devices.
The company also described a “Guardian” model meant to involve trusted actors in tasks like app review and device verification.
Who Might Benefit FirstSeeker owners and early dApp developers are the most likely to see immediate benefits. Airdrops are intended for users and builders, so people who actively use Seeker apps or who run services for that ecosystem could receive SKR at launch.
Based on reports, the token’s real value will hang on how many people buy Seeker phones, how many apps appear, and how active the community becomes.
A big airdrop number does not guarantee broad usage, and governance systems often face challenges if participation is low or power concentrates with a few parties.
