# SeekerVault
|
- 2026-03-09: SeekerVault refunding begins. Target was $50K, $2,095 raised.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Decentralized data sovereignty and monetization protocol built for the Solana Seeker device. Attempted to raise $75,000 through Futardio but failed to reach target, raising only $1,186 (1.6% of goal) before entering refund status.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The project proposed combining Walrus protocol for decentralized storage with Seal for decentralized secrets management (DSM) on Sui blockchain, targeting the 150,000+ Seeker device owners with a freemium model (20MB free, 100GB for $10/month in SKR).

## About SeekerVault
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Every one of the **150,000+ Solana Seeker phones** ships with 128GB of storage — but zero decentralized backup. Right now, those users are forced onto Google Drive and iCloud. That's insane.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**SeekerVault fixes this.** We're the native encrypted storage layer for Seeker, built on Walrus + Seal. But we're not just a backup tool — we're building the **data monetization protocol** for mobile crypto.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Here's the vision:**
|
|
||||||
1. 📦 **Encrypted Backup** — Replace iCloud for 150K+ Seeker users. Client-side encryption, decentralized storage. Your keys, your data.
|
|
||||||
2. 🤖 **AI Agent Vault** — As AI apps flood the Seeker ecosystem, agents will need persistent, encrypted memory. SeekerVault is the secure storage layer for agent context, model outputs, and private data — where no platform can read, revoke, or mine your AI interactions.
|
|
||||||
3. 🏪 **Creator Vaults** — Token-gated content stores where creators sell encrypted files, research, alpha — directly to subscribers. No middlemen. No deplatforming.
|
|
||||||
4. 💰 **Data Marketplace** — A decentralized storefront where anyone can list and sell digital content on-chain.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Why This Wins
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **150K+ captive users** — Every Seeker owner needs backup. We're the only decentralized option.
|
|
||||||
- **AI-ready infrastructure** — Mobile AI is exploding. Every on-device agent needs somewhere to store memory, context, and outputs. SeekerVault is that layer — encrypted and decentralized.
|
|
||||||
- **Working product**
|
|
||||||
- **Revenue from Day 1** — 20MB free tier → 100GB for $10/month payable in SKR. Subscription revenue feeds the treasury.
|
|
||||||
- **SKV utility unlock** — Post-funding, we integrate SKV as a payment option with **discounted storage pricing**. Pay with SKV = cheaper plans. Direct buy pressure from real usage.
|
|
||||||
- **Creator flywheel** — Every creator who shares their Vault link brings new users organically. This is a growth engine, not just a storage tool.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Why Hold $SKV?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is what makes SeekerVault a **token play**, not just a utility app:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Discount utility** — Users who pay with SKV get reduced storage pricing. This creates direct, ongoing demand for the token from real users.
|
|
||||||
2. **Subscription revenue** — Primary payments in SKR feed the treasury. SKV payments add a second revenue stream with built-in buy pressure.
|
|
||||||
3. **AI storage demand** — As AI agents ship on Seeker, every app that needs encrypted memory drives storage usage. More agents = more subscriptions = more token demand.
|
|
||||||
4. **Creator economy tax** — % of every storefront transaction flows to the DAO treasury.
|
|
||||||
5. **150K pre-built TAM** — Seeker owners are already crypto-native. Adoption friction = near zero..
|
|
||||||
6. **Treasury grows with usage** — More users + more AI agents = more subscriptions = more revenue to the DAO.
