First Solana Saga smartphone launched in 2023 with a price tag of $1,000 (eventually dropped to $599), started the wave of DePIN products on Solana that we have right now.

Saga owners received an airdrop of 30 million BONK tokens. At the time of the airdrop, these tokens were valued at approximately $10.

However, as BONK's price surged, the value of this airdrop skyrocketed.

At its peak, the BONK airdrop alone was worth over $1,000, surpassing the original cost of the phone.

With additional Airdrops and Benefits like Saga Monkes NFT, the price jumped to $2,000 on secondary markets like eBay.

TEEPIN: A Trustless Mobile Architecture

It’s Solana Mobile’s new security system built into the Seeker phone. You don’t need to trust the phone company, apps, or updates — everything is verified on-chain.

How it works (in simple terms):

  • Your phone's software is fully verified and secure

  • No one can secretly change or track it

  • You see what’s real, on-chain — always

TEEPIN makes sure your phone is 100% yours — safe, private, and crypto-native.

SKR Token: Powering the Solana Mobile Ecosystem

You earn it. You use it. You help to decide what's next.

  • Users get rewarded for using the phone and apps

  • Devs get paid based on real activity, not downloads

  • Community can help decide the future of the platform (DAO)

There is no conformation of SKR Airdrop to Seeker buyers (Personally, I think it can happen), but if you use a phone you get rewarded, this is confirmed.

Airdrops & Rewards

SolanaFloor launched the official Seeker Hub. Track your airdrops, claims, future perks, and alpha.

Eligible tokens and rewards may vary by pre-order date (down below, you can see the tokens buyers have already got).

A lot more is coming, Wallet Connect confirmed that Solana Mobile will be part of the WCT token claim campaign.

The Vision

Toly (CoFounder of Solana Labs) — “Seeker’s goal is to build a crypto-native mobile ecosystem that can compete with Apple and Google”.

  • Controlled on-chain by a DAO, not a corporation

  • The DAO decides the rules, app store logic, and even how value is shared or monetized

Apple controls its ecosystem, Seeker is replicating that — but making the on-chain and community governed, fully decentralized.

Availability

The Seeker is still available for pre-order on Solana Mobile's official website, with shipping set to begin on August 4, 2025., with shipping set to begin on August 4, 2025.
