SKR serves as the native token for the Solana Mobile ecosystem. The token has a fixed total supply of 10 billion. Distribution splits across multiple categories, with 30% designated for airdrops.
The allocation plan reserves 25% for growth initiatives and partnerships. Another 10% supports liquidity and launch activities. A community treasury receives 10% for future ecosystem proposals. Solana Mobile holds 15% while Solana Labs controls 10%.
Eligibility for the initial distribution came from a snapshot of onchain activity. The snapshot tracked usage tied to the Seeker device and its applications.
Token Utility and Staking
The token enables holders to participate in governance decisions. Users can delegate SKR tokens to help secure the mobile ecosystem. Staking rewards go to participants who lock their tokens.
Stakers can vote on economic parameters and ecosystem initiatives. The staking model aims to encourage early adoption through an inflation schedule.
Inflation starts at 10% in the first year. The rate decreases by 25% each year until reaching a terminal rate of 2%. Inflation events occur every 48 hours.
Price Performance and Market Data
SKR currently trades at $0.01062 according to Coingecko. The token price rose 54% in the past 24 hours. Trading began following the airdrop launch on Tuesday evening.
