The Seeker (SKR) token, the utility and governance asset of the Solana Mobile ecosystem, went live on Wednesday, the company said in a post on X.
Users of the Solana Seeker smartphone have 90 days to claim airdropped SKR tokens, which can be staked to earn rewards.
The airdrop is available to at least 100,000 users and 188 developers, with almost 2 billion SKR tokens distributed to the community through the launch, worth about $26.6 million at the time of publication.
