HAWK is a Solana-based memecoin launched on December 4, 2024, in partnership between internet personality Haliey Welch (the 'Hawk Tuah girl') and Web3 launchpad OverHere Limited. Within 15 minutes of launch the token reached a $491 million market capitalization before collapsing over 93% in value the same day, with on-chain data showing approximately 97% of supply was concentrated in insider wallets and only 3% available to the public. A federal class-action lawsuit naming Alex Larson Schultz, OverHere Limited, Clinton So, and Tuah The Moon Foundation for alleged unregistered securities violations remains active as of 2025; Haliey Welch was separately investigated by the FBI and SEC but claims to have been cleared.
