Hawk Tuah Girl Distances Herself from Failed HAWK Memecoin After SEC, FBI Scrutiny
Haliey Welch, the internet personality known as ’Hawk Tuah Girl,’ claims federal investigators cleared her of wrongdoing following the collapse of the HAWK memecoin project last December. On her Talk Tuah podcast, Welch revealed the SEC examined her phone and the FBI questioned her about the token’s failure, which she initially promoted as a compliant, fan-focused initiative.
The viral star now portrays herself as an uninformed participant, stating she felt ’sick’ about supporters trusting her crypto endorsement. This starkly contrasts with her original enthusiastic launch rhetoric. No specific coins or exchanges were directly implicated in Welch’s statements.
