Haley Welch, known as “Hawk Tuah Girl”, is now removing herself from the unsuccessful Hawk Memcoin of last December-before she was proud to launch it despite calling it a completely obedient, fan-centered token.
One in new episode In Tua Podcast, Welch claimed that the FBI was questioned and handed over his phone to the SEC, but eventually “clean” of wrongdoing.
“They walked through my phone, so they cleaned me. I was good to go,” she said. “I wish we knew what we now know.” He also dodged direct responsibility, instead prepared himself as an unknown pawn: “I have nothing to hide.”
But Welch’s latest comments – claims that she did not understand Crypto and feel “sick” that fans trusted her – stood opposite to her original declaration in November 2024.
At that time, Welch said that she was “excited to be a part of Meme culture” and “learned a lot” while working with partners launched to bring $ Hawk in life.
The token, which was launched on Solana, hit a market cap of $ 491 million briefly before dropping in less than $ 100 million. Welch’s team claimed that the project was legally obedient and was supported by the Cayman Foundation, and said that its tokens would be vested in three years.
Welch claims that the user losses are less
She claimed that initially the customer’s loss was estimated to be $ 1.2 million as high, the actual loss figure is $ 180,000.
However, there are still 10,149 token holders Solskain And many of those holders never sold, then the loss was never felt. The $ 180,000 figure does not include those holders.
Comments on his podcast are not buying the story.
“She admits that she did not know anything about it, but decided to support it and promote it anyway?” Read a YouTube comment. Another said, “You should never have associated yourself with something that you do not understand.”
Hawk prices are 99% below the December summit, sitting on a market capitalization of $ 104,000 till Tuesday morning.
