The new utility token aims to power Solana Mobile’s expanding Web3 mobile ecosystem and accelerate global adoption.

Solana Mobile, a subsidiary of the Solana blockchain, has reaffirmed its ambition to shape a full-fledged mobile Web3 ecosystem. After introducing its dedicated smartphone, the Solana Seeker, the company is now preparing to launch its own native token, SKR, an announcement made via X. Scheduled for release in January 2026, SKR is expected to mark a major milestone in the evolution of Solana Mobile’s decentralized mobile architecture.

Solana Mobile positions itself as a visionary project working to build a decentralized economy that can onboard more devices and manufacturers over time. The long-term goal is for its ecosystem to compete with giants such as iOS and Android. At the heart of this strategy lies the Solana dApp Store, which serves as the core distribution hub for decentralized applications. However, until now, a key missing piece was a dedicated economic engine capable of fueling adoption at scale.

SKR: A New Economic Engine for the Solana Mobile Ecosystem

SKR is designed as a utility token that will support the economic foundations of Solana Mobile’s ecosystem. It will first serve as a reward mechanism for “guardians,” the validators responsible for approving applications within the Solana dApp Store. Beyond that, SKR will provide treasury resources to fund community rewards, ecosystem growth initiatives, protocol development, and fair compensation for developers, users, and partners.

The new cryptocurrency will launch with a fixed supply of 10 billion SKR, which will unlock gradually over 48 months. Unlock allocations will prioritize ecosystem partners, growth initiatives, the Solana Mobile team, and Solana Labs.

Notably, 30% of all SKR tokens, equivalent to 3 billion, are already reserved for airdrops at launch, targeting active users and early supporters of the Solana Mobile ecosystem.

Solana Mobile also released projected inflation estimates for SKR. The team expects inflation to begin at around 10% at launch, before gradually declining to 2% annually within ten years. This early-stage inflation model, they say, is designed to incentivize early participation and investment.

Further details about SKR and the broader Solana Mobile roadmap will be revealed during Breakpoint 2025 in Abu Dhabi, scheduled for December 11–13, 2025.
