# About $BBROCKYDOG

Rocky is the name of the dog owned by Raj Gokal, one of the co-founders of Solana. Raj posted Rocky’s pic on Instagram 4 years ago.

This project pays homage to him, and his dog, and responds to the popular demand for dog-based narratives in the crypto space.

Rocky was created in response to this demand, and to provide value to the ecosystem created by Raj and his partner — the Solana blockchain.
