Guardian-Based Staking Powers SKR

The SKR token is set for release on January 21, 2026. It will enable staking, governance, and ecosystem coordination through Solana Mobile’s app market and security system. Users can stake tokens to agents called Guardians. Guardians verify devices and enforce platform standards. This setup connects economic rewards to device security and ecosystem participation.

Stakers will influence platform rules, admissions criteria, and financial circulation. The token aligns user incentives with long-term platform stability and developer growth. Participants gain hands-on roles in managing the Solana Mobile ecosystem. Guardians act as intermediaries, combining technical verification with community decision-making.

Token Supply and Incentives

SKR will have a total supply of 10 billion tokens. It follows a linear inflation model starting at 10% in the first year. Inflation will decrease yearly, reaching a 2% terminal rate after six years.

Community allocations account for a large share. Thirty percent of tokens will be distributed via airdrops. Eligible recipients include Seeker device owners, dApp users, builders, and Solana ecosystem participants. Growth initiatives will receive 25% of tokens. Liquidity and launch allocations will get 10% each. The Solana community treasury will hold 10%. Solana Mobile will receive 15%, and Solana Labs will hold 10%. Early supporters will influence platform rules and economic structures.

Seeker Smartphone Integrates SKR

The second-generation Seeker smartphone, released in August, will integrate SKR functionality. The device builds on the previous Saga model with upgraded hardware and deeper on-chain integration. It supports decentralized applications and advanced security tools tailored for Solana.

SKR will extend governance, staking, and incentive structures across devices. Users and developers can interact with the token through direct staking and ecosystem participation. The model encourages economic engagement and long-term platform commitment.

Solana Mobile plans to provide more information about SKR and its extended ecosystem at the next Solana Breakpoint event. The token aims to link smartphone technology, blockchain governance, and developer incentives in a single mobile framework.
