Additionally, the company said nearly 2 billion SKR is being distributed to the community through this initial launch, with claims available through the Seed Vault Wallet on Seeker devices and via approved platforms on Solana.  Coverage of the rollout describes SKR as a governance and staking asset for the Solana Mobile platform, with a maximum supply reported at 10 billion tokens. The move comes barely 2 months after CNF reported plans for Solana Mobile to launch the SKR token alongside the Seeker smartphone in early 2026. SKR Claim and Staking Details for Seeker Season 1 Participants For Seeker users, Solana Mobile directs claimants to open the Seed Vault Wallet, navigate to the Activity Tracking tab, and submit a claim transaction. The company said wallets should hold roughly 0.015 SOL to cover network fees, and the claim window is 90 days. Unclaimed tokens are scheduled to return to an airdrop pool after April 20, 2026. Developers who shipped qualifying apps to the Solana dApp Store during Season 1 can claim allocations through Solana Mobile’s publishing portal. The company linked the developer distribution to app delivery during the Season 1 period. After claiming, holders can stake the token through Seed Vault Wallet or a web interface. Solana Mobile said staking begins earning immediately, with inflation events every 48 hours and 0% commission at launch. The staking flow delegates SKR to Guardians that verify device authenticity, coordinate dApp reviews, and enforce community standards, with an unstake option subject to a 48-hour cooldown.  SKR has also begun to trade in both centralized and decentralized markets. Bybit has provided access on its platform and includes the identical contract address deployed by Solana Mobile. CoinMarketCap data showed SKR surging over 60% in 24 hours to $0.013, with 24-hour volume above $40 million at the time of publication. Meanwhile, Solana Mobile said Seeker Season 2 is underway, with new featured apps and partner integrations aimed at driving ongoing usage across categories such as DeFi, gaming, payments, and DePIN.
