# What is SKR token? Seeker's asset and holders chat

> What SKR is on Solana: the verified mint, supply, staking and Guardians with dates, Solana Mobile's channels, and an SKR-gated room on Cherry.


What is SKR token? SKR is the native asset of the Solana Mobile ecosystem, an SPL token on Solana that launched on 21 January 2026 for the Seeker phone and the Solana dApp Store around it. This page covers what the token does, where its holders talk, and how a room that checks the real mint works on Cherry (cherry.fun), a wallet-to-wallet messenger where you sign in with a wallet, DM any address, and join token-gated group chats.


## What is SKR token

SKR is an SPL token at mint `SKRbvo6Gf7GondiT3BbTfuRDPqLWei4j2Qy2NPGZhW3` with six decimals, issued by Solana Mobile, the company behind the Seeker phone. Of the 10 billion genesis supply, 30% went out as airdrops unlocked at launch, 25% to growth and partnerships, 15% to the Solana Mobile team on a 12-month cliff and a 36-month vest, and 10% each to liquidity, Solana Labs and a community treasury. Issuance adds 10% in the first year and decays 25% a year toward a terminal 2%.

The work the token does is curation. Holders stake SKR to Guardians, the operators who verify devices and review app submissions to the Solana dApp Store; Guardians are elected by the holders who stake to them. Staking epochs run two days and you can unstake after one. About 4.93 billion SKR were staked across the network on 12 September 2026.

About 6.99 billion SKR circulate of the 10.59 billion issued so far, worth about $130 million on 12 September 2026 and spread across more than 46,000 wallets. Solana Mobile's Seeker Summer campaign ran four rounds of quests from July to August 2026 and paid out more than 100 million SKR to owners.

## Where SKR holders talk today

Solana Mobile documents the token at [solanamobile.com/skr](https://solanamobile.com/skr), runs a [Discord server](https://discord.gg/solanamobile), and posts as @solanamobile on X. Those are company channels: announcements, support, hackathons.

Two things called SKR sit next to each other, and the difference decides who gets into a room. The token is the mint above, tradeable by anyone. A `.skr` name is a soulbound identity claimed on a Seeker device and checked once; Solana Mobile reported more than 75,000 of them by October 2025. A name proves you own the device. The token proves nothing about hardware, and plenty of wallets hold one without the other.

Cherry's [Seeker Club](https://cherry.fun/learn/guides/seeker-club/) takes the first route: gated by a `.skr` name, it had 8,640 members and 58,266 messages on 12 September 2026, rated 4.9 stars from 41 reviews.

A room for the token gathers a different crowd, phone or no phone.

## SKR holders on Cherry

[SKR Holders on Cherry](https://chat.cherry.fun/@skr)

Cherry opened an SKR Holders room at [chat.cherry.fun/@skr](https://chat.cherry.fun/@skr) on 11 September 2026. Cherry created it and runs it: this is Cherry's holders room, not Solana Mobile's channel, and Cherry is not affiliated with the SKR team. Entry is a single token balance rule against the mint above, minimum 1 SKR. On 12 September 2026 the room was public, with one member and no reviews.

Every name in the member list passed [an on-chain check](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/token-gated-chat/) by the app itself. Nobody DMs you a verify link, and membership is re-checked in the background, so a wallet that sells out loses access. Holders can [DM any wallet address](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/dm-a-wallet-address/) from there, including wallets that never opened Cherry. Type $SKR in the composer and the message renders a token card with price and market cap, swap powered by Jupiter. Size goes through [OTC escrow](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/otc-escrow/) in the mobile app, where a program settles both legs atomically and refunds a deal that times out. An [airdrop campaign](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/airdrops-and-quests/) can pay SOL or an SPL token to the wallets that pass the same balance check.

Cherry ships on the [Solana dApp Store](https://cherry.fun/learn/guides/chat-app-for-solana-seeker/), so a holder with the phone signs in through the Seed Vault Wallet and their `.skr` name becomes their [display name](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/wallet-identity/). One room can carry both rules and admit either kind of holder.

## How to create an SKR-gated room

1. Open [chat.cherry.fun](https://chat.cherry.fun) and sign in with a Solana wallet. The wallet signs a message; nothing goes on-chain, no gas.
2. Create a group with a name, description and handle, and set it public so it gets a storefront page.
3. Add an access requirement of the token-balance type and paste the mint `SKRbvo6Gf7GondiT3BbTfuRDPqLWei4j2Qy2NPGZhW3`. Check that the symbol resolves to SKR before saving.
4. Set the minimum. 1 SKR admits any holder; a higher minimum narrows the room to larger positions. A group takes up to five rules under all (every rule passes) or any (one is enough), so a second rule can add `.skr` name owners.
5. Share the room's public link. Visitors see the requirement, and whether their wallet passes, before joining.

## Risks and disclaimers

SKR started trading in January 2026, most of its supply reached wallets through airdrops, and issuance keeps adding to circulation on the schedule above. A balance gate proves a wallet held the minimum when it was read, not that its owner is honest, so scam links and impersonation still need mods who can mute and ban. Group chats on Cherry are not end-to-end encrypted, by design, so moderation and bots can work; DMs are end-to-end encrypted with keys derived from your wallet. The figures here are as of 12 September 2026 and move constantly. Nothing here is financial advice. Tokens can lose value.

## FAQ

### What is the SKR token used for?

Staking and curation. SKR holders stake to Guardians, the operators who verify devices and review app submissions to the Solana dApp Store, and those Guardians are elected by the holders who stake to them.

### Is SKR the same thing as a .skr domain?

No. SKR is a tradeable SPL token at the mint above. A .skr name is a soulbound identity claimed on a Seeker device and verified once. A wallet can hold one without the other, so a room gated by SKR and a room gated by .skr admit different people.

### Is the SKR Holders room on Cherry run by Solana Mobile?

No. Cherry created and runs it, and Cherry is not affiliated with the SKR team. It is a holders room for anyone whose wallet passes the balance check, and it does not speak for the project.

### How much SKR do I need to join the holders room?

The room at chat.cherry.fun/@skr asks for at least 1 SKR in the wallet you sign in with, so any holder qualifies. An owner running their own room can set any minimum.

### What happens if I sell my SKR?

Membership in a gated public group is re-checked on-chain in the background. A wallet that drops below 1 SKR loses access to the room; the re-check can take up to a few days to catch up.
