Conan is an Ethereum-based meme coin named after the heroic US special forces dog who gained fame for his role in the 2019 raid targeting Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Conan also aims to harness cryptocurrency to revolutionize economies and positively impact society. As part of this goal, it is dedicated to supporting charities that help military personnel and their families.^[1][2]

On February 25, 2024, the creators of Conan, who are affiliated with the team behind MAGA, transferred 20 billion CONAN tokens to Trump's wallet at the project's launch. Initially valued at $40,000, these tokens have since appreciated significantly in value.^[3]

Backstory

Conan is a special operations military working dog in the United States 1st SFOD-D (Delta Force). He is a male Belgian Malinois and was named after late-night talk show host and comedian Conan O'Brien. He is a veteran canine of the United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM) and has served in over 50 combat missions.

K9 Conan, like all MWDs, was trained by the 341st Military Working Dog Training Squadron at Lackland Air Force Base, which is located in Texas. Though his rise to fame in the raid against ISIS brought him out of his previous classified position, the remainder of the missions he went on were classified.
Conan, the heroic dog, gained international recognition for his brave and selfless actions during a daring raid carried out by the United States Special Forces. This courageous Belgian Malinois played a vital role in the operation that targeted ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in 2019. Despite sustaining injuries in the line of duty, Conan's unwavering dedication and resilience captured the hearts of people worldwide, making him a symbol of bravery and sacrifice among military and dog lovers alike.^[4]

Technology

Conan operates on the Ethereum blockchain, which utilizes a robust and secure proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This advanced technology ensures the network's security, scalability, and energy efficiency, making it a sustainable choice for long-term growth. The Ethereum blockchain provides a decentralized platform for Conan, allowing seamless and transparent transactions.

Conan leverages the power of smart contracts, which are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement directly written into code. These smart contracts automate various processes within the Conan ecosystem, enhancing efficiency and reducing the risk of human error. The contract renouncement and liquidity burn further bolster the project's security and trustworthiness, enabling the community to take full control.^[9]
