[Solana's unreleased mobile phone is in high demand, with orders reaching $70 million] According to Mars Finance, the revenue of this new version called Seeker is almost five times that of Solana's first encrypted mobile phone Saga. Seeker is not expected to be available until the summer of 2025.
Solana Mobile, the team behind the blockchain smartphone, has received $70 million in pre-orders for its second mobile device, the project said Thursday.
So what's driving demand? New markets.
“More than half of our orders are coming from Asia Pacific countries, and we were previously unable to sell phones in the region,” Emmett Hollyer, general manager of Solana Mobile, told DL News ahead of the Token2049 conference in Singapore this week.
