加密推出後，“霍克·塔阿”女孩哈利·韋爾奇被指控內幕交易

22歲的年輕人哈利·韋爾奇（Haliey Welch）今年夏天因其病毒的“霍克·圖阿（Hawk Tuah）” tiktok視頻而聞名，他因許多人認為她的加密貨幣災難性發射而受到抨擊。

Haliey Welch, the 22-year-old who became famous this summer for her viral "hawk tuah" TikTok video, is now facing backlash over her cryptocurrency launch, which many are calling a "rug pull."

哈利·韋爾奇（Haliey Welch）是一位22歲的年輕人，今年夏天因其病毒的“霍克·圖阿（Hawk Tuah）” tiktok錄像而聞名，現在在她的加密貨幣發布會上面臨反彈，許多人稱之為“地毯”。

Welch's latest career move, after becoming a celebrity, was to launch her own "meme coin," a form of cryptocurrency that is created as a joke or for entertainment purposes. However, shortly after Welch and her team of advisors launched $HAWK on the blockchain platform Solana on Wednesday evening, its value began to plummet almost immediately.

韋爾奇（Welch）成為名人之後，韋爾奇（Welch）的最新職業舉動是推出自己的“模因硬幣”，這是一種加密貨幣形式，是為了開玩笑或出於娛樂目的而創建的。但是，在韋爾奇和她的顧問團隊在周三晚上在區塊鏈平台索拉納（Solana）上推出$ HAWK之後不久，其價值幾乎立即開始下降。

Now, some are suggesting that Welch may have run afoul of the Securities and Exchange Commission, an independent oversight agency that regulates financial markets, including cryptocurrency.

現在，有些人建議韋爾奇（Welch）可能會違反美國證券交易委員會（Securities and Exchange Commission），這是一個獨立的監督機構，該機構對金融市場進行了監管，包括加密貨幣。

According to a report from Rolling Stone, some investors in the Welch cryptocurrency have already filed complaints with the SEC, alleging that what took place could be what's known as a "rug pull" – when developers hype up a crypto project to inflate the value, only to quickly profit off it before it tanks and they disappear.

根據Rolling Stone的一份報告，Welch加密貨幣的一些投資者已經向SEC提出了投訴，聲稱發生的事情可能是所謂的“地毯拉力” - 當開發人員炒作加密項目以使價值膨脹，以誇大該價值，即只是為了在儲罐之前快速從中獲利並消失。

Welch and her team, however, have taken to social media to dispel the notion that the meme coin was a scam.

然而，韋爾奇和她的團隊已進入社交媒體，以消除模因硬幣是騙局的觀念。
