1️⃣ Solana Mobile native ecosystem token officially launches airdrop and trading Solana Mobile officially launched the SKR token and opened airdrop claims on January 21st, distributing nearly 2 billion tokens to 100,908 Seeker users across five user levels: Sovereign, Luminary, Vanguard, Prospector, and Scout. As an SPL token within the Solana ecosystem, SKR will be used for governance, staking, application review, and device security. The total supply of the token is 10 billion, with 30% allocated for airdrops and community incentives. This development marks the start of the “mobile hardware + crypto incentives” business model entering a substantive execution phase in 2026, attracting significant funding attention.
2️⃣ Gate’s global debut and contract trading support price increase SKR was launched on Gate’s global platform for spot trading (SKR/USDT trading pair) at 10:00 (UTC+8) on January 21st. Later that day at 13:00, it completed migration from pre-market perpetual contracts to official perpetual contracts, and simultaneously launched SKR/USDT perpetual contracts on Gate Perp DEX. The official contracts support 1-50x long and short positions. As the first exchange to list SKR, Gate’s diversified trading pairs and liquidity support have facilitated rapid price growth.
3️⃣ Strong incentive mechanisms and ecosystem narratives drive market expectations The initial staking annual yield for SKR is approximately 28% APY, employing a mechanism of linear inflation and staking incentives to encourage early participants to lock in tokens long-term and enhance network security. Toly, co-founder of Solana Labs, stated that the low-price phase benefits developers by allowing them to fully enjoy early participation dividends, and emphasized that building a truly prosperous ecosystem requires a 10-year cycle, providing theoretical support for SKR’s long-term growth. Meanwhile, some funds are shifting from main chain assets (SOL) to new ecosystem incentive assets, reflecting market optimism about Solana Mobile’s ecosystem expansion. This shift has driven SKR’s short-term strong rally.
