The second generation of Solana Mobile was renamed Solana Seeker and officially unveiled, with pre-sales exceeding 140,000 devices.
September 19, 2024 – Solana Mobile Inc., a subsidiary of blockchain technology company Solana Labs, Inc., today unveiled its highly anticipated second-generation web3 mobile device, Seeker, scheduled for release in 2025.
Seeker was launched in secret as “Chapter Two” earlier, and following the success of Solana Saga, Seeker has sold over 140,000 units in 57 countries. This response has further inspired innovation in Web3 mobile within the Solana community, and the ecosystem team is developing exclusive decentralized applications (dApps), rewards, and features for Seeker in anticipation of the device’s launch.
“We founded Solana Mobile with the mission of bringing crypto to mobile,” said Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana and CEO of Solana Labs. “To achieve this, we need to make Seeker easier and cheaper to use, and integrate its hardware and software more deeply with Web3. The support from the Solana community so far has been incredible, and we believe that with features like the new Seed Vault Wallet and a more optimized Solana dApp Store, Seeker will become the iconic Web3 mobile device when it launches next year.”
Solana Seeker’s main benefits announced:
Seed Vault Wallet: A mobile-first crypto wallet natively integrated into the device’s self-hosted Seed Vault to ensure a seamless Web3 experience, supporting double-click transactions and easy account management. It is a wallet built exclusively for Seekers in partnership with Solflare.
Solana dApp Store 2.0: Features a new rewards tracker and improved dApp exploration capabilities, covering areas such as payments, DeFi, DePIN, NFTs, AI, and games.
Seeker Genesis Token: A non-transferable (soulbound) NFT that unlocks rewards, exclusive access, offers, and content across the Solana ecosystem.
Hardware improvements: Seeker has significant improvements over its predecessor, including a lighter body, brighter display, more advanced cameras, and longer battery life.
Early bird pricing for the Solana Seeker is $450, with pre-sales ending September 21, 2024. For more information and to pre-order, visit solanamobile.com.
