60,000 preorders and countingβ¦
A heartfelt thank you to this amazing community for your unwavering support and belief in the vision. You are the core of the #Chapter2 journey.
βChapter 2β is poised to be the successor to the Solana Mobile Saga, the brandβs inaugural crypto phone which made waves in the market for its innovative integration of cryptocurrency functionalities.
Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder and CEO of Solana Labs, shared his excitement over the communityβs response. βThe response to Solana Mobile has been incredible,β Yakovenko stated. βSince Chapter 2 was announced, weβve had over 60,000 preorders and built a real community of dedicated users.β
Scheduled for a 2025 rollout, the βChapter 2β device seeks to offer a more affordable gateway into the world of crypto, with a preorder price set at $450. This pricing strategy marks a significant reduction from its predecessor, the Solana Mobile Saga, which initially hit the market at $1,000 before dropping to $599.
The success of the Saga model, which sold out in the U.S. by Dec. 15, 2023, laid a solid foundation for its successor. With the introduction of βChapter 2,β Solana Mobile aims to extend its reach within the crypto community, offering a physical phone equipped with crypto-supporting software that appeals to a wider audience.
In addition to the preorder milestone, Solana Mobile has introduced a leaderboard to encourage community engagement and referrals ahead of the βChapter 2β launch. The top 1,500 referrers will receive a non-transferrable Element NFT, along with the opportunity to earn rewards from various Solana ecosystem teams, including Mad Lads, Jupiter, Tensor, and Backpack. The first leaderboard snapshot took place on Feb. 6 at 2 p.m. ET, with each preorder wallet receiving a token post-snapshot as a token of appreciation and engagement.
