It serves as the bridge between secure Web3 hardware and truly decentralized software, ensuring that your digital life—backups, private files, and premium content—remains entirely under your control. ### **Our Mission** To empower the 150,000+ Seeker owners to own their data as securely as they own their private keys. We believe that a "decentralized phone" is only as sovereign as its storage layer. Our goal is to eliminate the forced dependency on centralized cloud storage providers . --- ### **How It Works** SeekerVault leverages a cutting-edge, "un-deplatformable" technical stack that combines high-capacity storage with decentralized secrets management: * **The Storage Layer:** We utilize the **Walrus** protocol to ensure your data is distributed across a decentralized network, making it resilient to hardware failure or censorship. * **The Security Layer (DSM):** We integrate **Seal** for Decentralized Secrets Management. Seal relies on access control policies defined and validated on the **Sui blockchain**. This ensures that encryption and decryption are governed by on-chain logic, removing any single point of failure. * **The Monetization Layer:** We turn storage into a business. Creators can launch token-gated **Content Vaults**, allowing them to sell access to private files, media, and research directly to their audience without Web2 middlemen. --- ### **Why SeekerVault?** * **Privacy by Default:** All cryptographic operations are managed by **Seal** and executed securely on your Seeker device. By utilizing the device's **Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)**, we ensure that your identity-based keys are never exposed to the operating system or unauthorized apps. * **Incentivized Security:** Through our **Point Streaking** model, we reward users for migrating their sensitive data from centralized clouds to the SeekerVault ecosystem. Top "streakers" earn a percentage of subscription revenue. * **Predictable Economics:** A simple subscription model—**20MB free** and **100GB for $10/month** (payable in SKR)—abstracts the complexity of blockchain gas fees into a familiar user experience. --- ## **Use of Funds** ### **Monthly Burn Breakdown — Team, Infra, Marketing, and Runway** We are seeking **$75,000** to fund **6 months** of operations, taking SeekerVault from dApp store entry to a fully functional decentralized content marketplace. | Category | Monthly Allocation | Key Details | | --- | --- | --- | | **Team** | **$4,000** | Core engineering and product management for Solana/Sui integration and TEE optimization. | | **Infrastructure** | **$5,000** | Operation of **Walrus** publisher nodes and **Seal** for decentralized encryption/decryption. | | **Marketing** | **$1,000** | Community growth | | **Total Monthly Burn** | **$10,000** | | * **Runway:** **6 Months** . --- ## **Roadmap & Milestones** ### **Key Deliverables with Target Dates** #### **March 2026: Ecosystem Access & Entry** * **Solana dApp Store Listing:** Native accessibility for all Seeker devices (currently in review). * **Storage Subscription Launch:** Deployment of the tiered storage model: * **20MB Free:** Entry-level tier for all Seeker users to test the **Seal** encryption flow. * **100GB Pro ($10):** High-capacity Backup payable in **SKR** or **SKV** (SeekerVault token). #### **Q2 2026: The Monetization Layer** * **Online Content Subscription Service:** Enabling creators to launch token-gated "Vaults" where fans pay to unlock exclusive encrypted files. * **Permissioned Sharing:** Utilizing **Seal** access policies to automate identity-based decryption for subscribers via threshold cryptography. #### **Q3 2026: The Marketplace** * **Data Store Front:** Launch of the decentralized storefront where users can list, discover, and sell digital content (research, media, datasets) directly on-chain. --- ## **Market & Differentiation** ### **Target Market, Competitive Edge, and Go-To-Market** ### **Target Market** * **The 150k+ Seeker Community:** Primary acquisition of users who purchased decentralized hardware but currently rely on centralized file backups. * **Web3 Creators:** Alpha groups and digital creators seeking an **un-deplatformable** subscription and data-delivery model. ### **Competitive Edge** * **Decentralized-First Architecture:** Unlike standard cloud options, SeekerVault leverages **Walrus** for data storage and **Seal** for the encryption/decryption layer. This ensures a truly un-deplatformable stack where no single entity holds the keys. * **Hardware Synergy:** Deep integration with the Seeker device, providing a seamless mobile UX that generic web3 storage protocols cannot replicate. * **Low Friction / High Security:** Identity-based encryption (via Seal) allows users to secure data as easily as a standard login, but with the security of threshold cryptography. ### **Go-to-Market (GTM)** * **The "Hook" Strategy:** Every Seeker user gets **20MB free** to experience the speed of decentralized backup instantly. Upgrading to the **100GB / $10** plan is a one-click process. * **Incentivized Migration (Point Streaking):** Users earn points daily for securing their files with SeekerVault. At the end of each cycle, the top 100 "streakers" earn a percentage of that cycle’s subscription revenue. * **The Creator Flywheel:** By leading with the **Online Content Subscription Service**, every creator who shares a link to their "Vault" acts as an organic user acquisition channel for the SeekerVault ecosystem. ### **DEMO** | **PDF Preview** | [Watch Demo](https://seekervault.xyz/assets/pdf%20preview%20seekervault.mp4) | | **Video Upload** | [Watch Demo](https://seekervault.xyz/assets/video%20demo%20seekervault.mp4) | | **Picture Upload** | [Watch Demo](https://seekervault.xyz/assets/Picture%20upload%20seekervault.mp4) | ## Links - Website: https://seekervault.xyz - Twitter: https://x.com/seekervaultxyz ## Raw Data - Launch address: `7U7F3g1y81PJ97pQdA85moD732kctKGLizKgCHqnGW2d` - Token: 3M1 (3M1) - Token mint: `3M1UfefsfrtBNkaDnrbnchRakEixhd8GGzFpnNuSmeta` - Version: v0.7 - Closed: 2026-03-05
