The creator of the HEX token, Richard Heart, has been placed on Interpol’s Red Notice list for tax fraud and violent assault.

Despite being on the Red Notice list, Heart has not acknowledged the charges against him. Instead, he has maintained his focus on his crypto projects and expressed optimism about the future.

“My whole life I’ve been preparing for the future. Anticipating it. Creating it. I’ve never been safer and I’m excited for the future. The Honorable Justice in SEC v me should have her ruling out soon. Donald Trump will be in office soon. PulseX, PulseChain, HEX, INC are all functioning wonderfully. This makes some entities mad, but there’s literally nothing they can do about it except be mad. It feels great to be wanted. Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come,” Heart stated.

Earlier this year, Heart's legal team submitted a letter to Judge Carol Bagley Amon of the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York to counter the SEC's claim of securities fraud.

Following the announcement of the Red Notice, HEX token prices surged by 30%, rising from $0.0032 to $0.0044. According to CoinMarketCap, HEX's market capitalization declined by 50% in December, reaching $2.54 billion. PulseX's total value locked reached $700 million in December before dropping to $534 million, according to DefiLlama.
