1-Hawk Tuah Girl: SEC concludes meme coin probe
Haliey Welch, known as the “Hawk Tuah Girl” in a viral video, said the U.S. authorities closed their inquiry into the contentious meme currency with her slogan without taking action.
“For the past few months, I've been cooperating with all the authorities and attorneys, and finally, that work is complete,” Welch told TMZ.
The SEC ended the inquiry without charging Haliey. Since they did not sue her, she has no crypto or securities constraints in the future.

Welch avoided SEC fines, but the coin's designers are being sued for issuing the token without regulatory authority.
Welch's sources claim he has cut links with the coin's LLC and won't promote it.
Welch became famous after describing a physical act in a street interview went viral. She used her newfound fame for the “Talk Tuah” podcast and other projects.
