“霍克·圖阿”（Hawk Tuah）女孩哈利·韋爾奇（Hahiy Welch

她的$ Hawk令牌的市值為4.9億美元，然後墜毀超過95％

Haliey Welch, who became famous online as the "Hawk Tuah girl," started crying in her first podcast episode since being accused of "rug pulling" her supporters in an alleged crypto scam. Her $Hawk token, which was marketed as a community-first, playful memecoin, had a $490 million market cap before crashing by over 95%. Welch, who is not named in the investors' class-action lawsuit, insisted she had "no bad intentions" and was "tricked" by those overseeing the project.

哈利·韋爾奇（Haliey Welch）在網上以“霍克·圖阿（Hawk Tuah）女孩”的身份出名，他開始在她的第一個播客劇集中哭泣，因為被指控在涉嫌的加密騙局中“拉扯”她的支持者。她的$ HAWK令牌是作為社區優先，嬉戲的Memecoin銷售的，其市值為4.9億美元，然後墜毀超過95％。韋爾奇（Welch）在投資者的集體訴訟中沒有命名，他堅持認為她沒有“不好的意圖”，並被監督該項目的人“欺騙”。

After the launch of the $Hawk token on December 4, 2024, and its rapid price increase, investors quickly realized something was amiss when the token collapsed in a matter of minutes. The value of the token plummeted over 95%, wiping out millions in assets. What was once a marketplace valued at nearly half a billion dollars had now shrunk to $41 million.

在2024年12月4日推出$ HAWK代幣以及價格迅速上漲之後，投資者很快意識到，當代幣在幾分鐘內倒塌時，有些事情是不對的。代幣的價值暴跌了95％以上，消除了數百萬美元的資產。曾經價值近五億美元的市場縮水到4,100萬美元。

Accusations of a "pump-and-dump" scheme, in which insiders cause a price increase in a coin, then sell at its value, quickly arose. Coffeezilla, a well-known cryptocurrency journalist, also accused those involved of insider trading and possibly manipulating investors. Most suspected Welch and her team of having gotten everyone to believe that the project existed.

對“泵送”計劃的指控，其中內部人會導致硬幣的價格上漲，然後以其價值出售，很快就出現了。著名的加密貨幣記者咖啡齊（Coffeczilla）也指責那些參與內幕交易和可能操縱投資者的人。最懷疑的韋爾奇和她的團隊讓所有人都相信該項目存在。

Welch, however, denied any wrongdoing, claiming she was misled by those overseeing the project. Despite her public statements, most investors remained skeptical, calling for accountability and financial restitution.

但是，韋爾奇否認有任何不當行為，聲稱她被監督該項目的人誤導了。儘管她公開聲明，但大多數投資者仍然持懷疑態度，要求責任和賠償金。

The failure of $Hawk led to a storm of lawsuits, with investors filing legal complaints in rapid succession. Several entities involved in creating the token were sued by investors. OverHere Ltd., Tuah The Moon Foundation, and key persons such as Clinton So and Alex Larson Schultz were sued for fraud in offering and selling an unregistered security.

$ HAWK的失敗導致了一系列訴訟，投資者迅速提出法律投訴。涉及創建令牌的幾個實體被投資者起訴。 Overhere Ltd.，Tuah The Moon Foundation以及Clinton So和Alex Larson Schultz等關鍵人物因欺詐而被起訴，以提供和出售未註冊的安全性。

Interestingly, Welch herself was not included in the suit, but she faced a lot of backlash in the public sphere, with many holding her responsible for using her web success to generate financial reward at the expense of her followers.

有趣的是，韋爾奇本人並未被包括在訴訟中，但她在公共領域面臨很多強烈反對，許多人負責以自己的網絡成功以犧牲追隨者為代價來獲得經濟獎勵。

Welch responded to the controversy by going silent. She took down her podcast, "Talk Tuah," deleted promotional tweets for $Hawk, and vanished off social media, avoiding press and public appearances for several months.

韋爾奇通過沉默回應了這一爭議。她取消了播客“ Talk Tuah”，刪除了$ HAWK的促銷推文，並消失了社交媒體，避免了幾個月的新聞和公開露面。

Despite Welch's silence, speculations about her involvement in the $Hawk scandal continued unabated. However, that changed in early 2025 when a leaked episode of her podcast with YouTuber FaZe Banks was posted. In a tearful audio, Welch discussed the scandal for the first time ever.

儘管韋爾奇保持沉默，但人們對她參與$霍克醜聞的猜測仍然沒有減弱。但是，在2025年初，當她與YouTuber Faze Banks的播客洩露的一集洩漏時發生了變化。韋爾奇在一個淚流滿面的音頻中首次討論了醜聞。

"I never planned for any of this to have happened. I thought I was part of a group that would be exciting for my followers," she said, her voice trembling with emotion. "I lost as much as everyone else."

她說：“我從來沒有計劃過任何事情發生。我以為我是一個對我的追隨者來說會令人興奮的團體的一員。”她的聲音充滿了情感。 “我失去了其他所有人。”

She also added that all of the proceeds from the podcast episode would go towards charities for animals recently displaced and affected by fires, in a seeming attempt to deflect controversy and steer discussion towards philanthropy. While her return received a mixed reaction, with many empathizing with her and others speculating whether her outburst of emotion was a calculated move to revamp her tainted image.

她還補充說，播客劇集的所有收益都將用於最近因火災流離失所和影響的動物的慈善機構，似乎試圖將爭議和引導討論轉移到慈善事業上。儘管她的回歸收到了不同的反應，但許多人對她和其他人的同情心，猜測她的情感是否是對她的污染形象進行改造的一項計劃。
