The “Hawk Tuah” Girl, Haliey Welch, has broken her silence after disappearing for two months.
Welch, who immediately went under fire after her failed meme coin launch, disappeared amid calls from social media asking for her to be jailed.
The coin, $HAWK, lost investors a lot of money while the developers made off with millions after what appeared to be a neat pump-and-dump scheme.
Haliey has maintained her innocence, claiming she was also a victim as she was merely promoting the coin and didn’t have anything to do with the back-end work. Her ‘Talk Tuah’ podcast, which had been dormant since the failed launch in December, was back with an episode this week; FaZe Banks was on as a guest. The episode isn’t officially out and leaked online this Thursday as it was prematurely uploaded before being quickly deleted. Of course, the internet was able to save some of it. “I want to start by saying thank you to all my true fans,” Hailey began.
She continued by saying her team was still trying to figure but couldn’t hold back the tears.
“I feel really bad for all the people that got affected by it,” Welch added while explaining how the venture was sold to her.

Banks had previously advised the “Hawk Tuah” Girl to fire her team. He revealed he agreed to appear on the podcast under some strict conditions, including not allowing the episode to get leaked and manipulate the market, as well as providing a fix after the coin’s mismanagement.
“Now today, the episode ‘randomly’ gets leaked. The price of $HAWK is pumping, and they completely fumbled the bag, yet again,” he tweeted as he accused Welch’s people of insider trading and mishandling the situation.
“Fire everybody, your team’s f**king retarded,” he added.
The YouTuber also advised everyone to “stay far away” from $HAWK as most of it is owned by unknown devs.
