Solana Mobile Gears Up to Launch SKR Token in January 2026

Solana Mobile in a blog unveiled new details about the forthcoming SKR native token for the Seeker smartphone ecosystem. The initiative aims to further enhance the Solana ecosystem, primarily in mobile applications and decentralized finance (DeFi).

The token will power the growth and coordination mechanism, including staking to Guardians, supporting builders, securing devices, and curating the dApp Store. The team confirmed that the SKR value will gradually flow back to the community as the ecosystem scales.

“We’re thrilled to announce the SKR token launch in January 2026,” said a spokesperson for Solana Mobile. It announced Anza, DoubleZero, Triton, Helius, and Jito platforms to join Solana Mobile as Guardians next year.

Meanwhile, Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko addressed criticisms about why the Solana Foundation didn’t just use SOL as the native asset for the mobile phone. He indicated that Seeker is an entirely independent team from the Foundation.

What does seeker or mobile have anything to do with the solana foundation?
