Solana Mobile Expands Web3 Mobile Ecosystem with TEEPIN Architecture, SKR Token, Confirms Seeker Shipping Date
Solana Seekers will begin shipping worldwide August 4, 2025
SAN FRANCISCO, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Solana Mobile Inc., a subsidiary of leading blockchain technology company Solana Labs, Inc., today announced the next phase of its Web3 mobile ecosystem. The company revealed the official ship date for its flagship Seeker device, August 4, 2025, and introduced two foundational pillars of its long-term strategy: TEEPIN, a decentralized infrastructure architecture, and SKR, the native asset powering the Solana Mobile ecosystem.
Seeker, the "Definitive Web3 Mobile Device," will begin shipping globally on August 4, 2025. Seeker comes equipped with a hardware Seed Vault and Genesis Token, and all new features like the Seed Vault Wallet, Seeker ID, and a reimagined SolanadApp Store offering a vastly improved UX for secure onchain engagement.
Building An Open Mobile Ecosystem
To support the growth of an open mobile ecosystem, Solana Mobile is expanding its platform to additional hardware manufacturers while decentralizing its web3 mobile ecosystem. Central to this vision is TEEPIN — the Trusted Execution Environment Platform Infrastructure Network — a three-layered technical architecture that allows developers, users, and device makers to participate in a secure, trustless mobile environment.
"TEEPIN represents the next evolution in mobile — a framework where trust isn't granted by a central authority but verified through cryptography," said Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder and CEO of Solana Labs. "By leveraging secure hardware that already exists on modern smartphones and governing access on-chain, we're unlocking open innovation, platform ownership, and a decentralized future for mobile."
Solana Mobile's TEEPIN Architecture Overview:
- Hardware Layer — Device-level Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) allow cryptographic attestation of software and hardware integrity.
- Platform Layer — Verified users and apps connect atop onchain verification, enabling global app distribution without traditional gatekeepers or excessive fees.
- Network Layer — A decentralized trust network that spans devices and applications, managed by a Guardian Network of community leaders and organizations.
Introducing SKR, the Native Asset of the Solana Mobile Ecosystem
At the center of Solana Mobile's framework is the forthcoming SKR, the native asset of the Solana Mobile ecosystem. SKR will power economy, incentives, and ownership across the ecosystem, while aligning users, developers, and hardware manufacturers towards growing the web3 mobile ecosystem.
"Aligning incentives is essential to building a truly decentralized and self-sustaining mobile ecosystem," said Emmett Hollyer, General Manager of Solana Mobile. "It transforms the traditional mobile business model by giving stakeholders actual ownership in the platform. Instead of being passive consumers in someone else's walled garden, users, developers, and hardware manufacturers become active stewards of a community-owned digital infrastructure."

Solana Mobile's second-generation device, Seeker — which has sold over 150,000 units so far — begins shipping globally on August 4, 2025. Early Adopter pricing remains available for a limited time at $500.
