We had the privilege of interviewing the co-founder, Christian Rees. Here are excerpts from the interview.
Hi Christian, It’s great to have you with us today! Please share about yourself with our readers.
Hi, I am the proud Co-Founder of Hannicoin. I am responsible for the development of Hannicoin’s unique tokenomics and LP protocol ensuring low cap circulation per DEX listing in a controlled decentralized manner. I also play a role in formation of strategic and forward thinking marketing plans in conjunction with Konstantin in order to elevate to Hannicoin Brand.

How did you become involved in the Crypto Market?
I am a South African Entrepreneur who has been obsessed with cryptocurrencies since my teenage years. Upon graduating, I began to invest in many meme coins, like most degens.
My trading became serious about two years following that as I began moving into then-thriving Defi pools and other altcoins with strong potential. This gives me a mix of traditional De-Fi and meme experiences. These experiences, combined with my knowledge of Crypto Trading, allowed me to quit my full-time employment and make a considerable income in Crypto. This was a crucial pivoting moment towards my life as I know it now, and I don’t regret a thing :).
What has it been like working at Hannicoin and what has the experience entailed?
After being approached by Konstantin, we have been hard at work, often working 18-hour days on this project of passion. We created a comprehensive whitepaper and developed profit-sharing strategies for our community.
Do you have any suggestions for those interested in the project or details about its future?
I suggest you sign up for our discord. We have some amazing promotions that are and will still be happening in regard to a major community airdrop. Our VIP investors also have something really special in store for them, but this will be shared in Q3-Q4. What I can say at the moment is that we are looking to increase dividends to pool holders based not only on token sales but also on some of our future revenue channels. That’s all I will say for now, though; I don’t want to ruin the surprise we have in store for our Investor group.
We also had the privilege of interviewing the co-founder, Konstantin El Akid. Here are excerpts from the interview.
Hi Konstantin, It’s great to have you with us today! Please share about yourself with our readers.
Hi, I am German/ Tunisian, and I grew up in the Sunny South of Spain. I’m 32. I come from a Sales background, having worked in High-End Real Estate companies.

Please tell us about your Crypto Journey.
I only got involved in Crypto towards the end of 2023 when a friend of mine opened my eyes about this “Stockmarket on Steroids”. Since then, I have been trading various Altcoins with my business partner, Christian Rees, who’s been a good friend of mine for many years. When I told him about Crypto at the end of last year, he told me he was actually trading himself as well, and I realized how much knowledge Chris had already gained about this industry.
Please share about how $HANNICOIN was born.
I came up with the idea of making our own Cryptocurrency one day, although at the time, we weren’t quite sure what kind of project we would settle on, as we are very success-driven. At the beginning of this crazy meme coin maniac cycle around March 2024, I had a realization, and I said to Chris let’s make our own meme coin, but not just any ordinary Meme; we need to stand out and be special.
I instantly thought of Hannibal. My whole life, ever since I can think back, my Dad has spoken to me about Hannibal Barca. He told me stories about him and how he was one of the greatest generals this world has ever seen. He would tell me all those stories because Hannibal was a Carthaginian and a Berber, like us(Tunisians). When I pitched my idea to Chris, at first, he was a bit hesitant due to the saturated nature of the Meme coin market at the time, but I was thinking about this very issue. What do we need to do to not be just another Meme coin but something outstanding instead? Something that the crypto world hasn’t seen.
Giving it some thought, I came up with the idea of creating a VIP community and a voting rights system. We believe this will be the ideally blended DeFi/Meme Coin of the future. After explaining this to Chris, I could see his excitement. He knew we may have hit a jackpot with this idea. He agreed and then let his creativity play, adding that after we successfully launched our Meme, we could then create an NFT series about Hannibal and, at a later stage, even create a Hannibal Barca Game. That’s how our outstanding Whitepaper was created.
We’ve designed the perfect blend between DEFI/MEME and with the vision of diving into GameFi in the near future. It’s truly a Crypto unlike any other. This is How $HANNICOIN was born.
Thank you so much, Christian and Konstantin, for giving us your precious time! We wish you all the best for your journey ahead!
