首先是名氣，然後是加密貨幣，最後是訴訟

哈莉·韋爾奇 (Haliey Welch)，田納西州人，今年夏天因街頭採訪而成為網路明星

Haliey Welch, who became an internet sensation earlier this year for her street interview antics, has finally addressed the class action lawsuit filed over her cryptocurrency $HAWK.

Haliey Welch 今年早些時候因其街頭採訪滑稽動作而成為網路紅人，她終於解決了針對她的加密貨幣 $HAWK 提起的集體訴訟。

In a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, Welch acknowledged the suit but noted that it only names her crypto partners, Alex Larson Schultz (“Doc Hollywood”) and Clinton So, along with So’s platform overHere and the Cayman Islands-based Tuah the Moon Foundation.

在週五在X（前Twitter）上發布的聲明中，韋爾奇承認了這起訴訟，但指出，訴訟中只提到了她的加密貨幣合作夥伴Alex Larson Schultz（“Doc Hollywood”）和Clinton So，以及So 的平台overHere 和開曼群島 -總部設在圖阿月亮基金會。

"I take this situation extremely seriously and want to address my fans, the investors who have been affected, and the broader community,” Welch wrote. “I am fully cooperating with and am committed to assisting the legal team representing the individuals impacted, as well as to help uncover the truth, hold the responsible parties accountable, and resolve this matter.”

韋爾奇寫道：「我非常嚴肅地對待這一情況，並希望向我的粉絲、受到影響的投資者以及更廣泛的社區發表講話。」「我將全力配合並致力於協助代表受影響個人的法律團隊，因為並協助查明真相，追究相關責任人的責任，解決此事。

She went on to advise those who lost money on $HAWK to contact Burwick Law, the firm that filed the suit against Schultz and So and advertised its services on X in the immediate aftermath of the coin crash.

她接著建議那些在 $HAWK 上蒙受損失的人聯繫 Burwick Law，該公司對 Schultz and So 提起訴訟，並在硬幣崩盤後立即在 X 上宣傳其服務。

"I will continue to keep you updated on any further developments,” Welch added.

韋爾奇補充道：“我將繼續向您通報任何進一步的進展。”

The suit, filed in federal court in Manhattan, includes a dozen plaintiffs who claim to have collectively lost more than $150,000 in the $HAWK debacle. It alleges that the defendants “leveraged Welch’s celebrity status and connections” and “created a speculative frenzy” in order to jack up the coin’s price as trading began, ultimately luring in “first-time cryptocurrency participants” who were drawn to the project as fans of Welch.

該訴訟向曼哈頓聯邦法院提起，包括十幾名原告，他們聲稱在 $HAWK 事故中總共損失了超過 15 萬美元。據稱，被告“利用韋爾奇的名人地位和人脈”並“製造投機狂潮”，以便在交易開始時抬高代幣的價格，最終吸引“首次加密貨幣參與者”，他們作為粉絲被該項目吸引韋爾奇的。

The complaint contends that Schultz and So violated securities laws, and even indicated their efforts to skirt those laws on the Spaces call. It notes, too, that $HAWK was never registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

訴狀稱，舒爾茨等人違反了證券法，甚至在 Spaces 電話會議上表示他們試圖規避這些法律。它還指出，$HAWK 從未在美國證券交易委員會註冊。

The choice to go after Welch’s collaborators rather than the self-described “Queen. of Memes” herself suggests what many observers have already assumed: that she played no meaningful role in how $HAWK was conceived or distributed, serving merely as a face to market the token.

選擇追捕韋爾奇的合作者而不是自稱的“女王”。 Memes 本人提出了許多觀察家已經假設的內容：她在 $HAWK 的構思或分發方式中沒有發揮任何有意義的作用，僅充當代幣行銷的代言人。

As YouTuber Stephen Findeisen, who investigates crypto fraud under the handle Coffeezilla, reported earlier this month, Welch had received an up-front payment of $125,000 to promote the coin to her community, along with 50 percent of net trading proceeds after operating costs paid to third parties. This is in addition to owning 10 percent of the entire $HAWK supply, which she cannot sell for a year.

正如負責調查Coffeezilla 下的加密貨幣欺詐行為的YouTuber Stephen Findeisen 本月早些時候報道的那樣，韋爾奇收到了125,000 美元的預付款，用於向她的社區推廣該貨幣，以及支付運營成本後淨交易收益的50%第三方。除此之外，她還擁有 $HAWK 全部供應量的 10%，而她一年內無法出售這些供應量。

Whether those stakes will amount to anything is anyone’s guess.

任何人都在猜測這些賭注是否會產生任何作用。
