Haliey Welch, better known as the “Hawk Tuah girl,” has claimed the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has closed its investigation on her and the HAWK meme coin without pursuing any enforcement actions. However, the SEC themselves have not commented or confirmed this claim. The assertion follows the HAWK token’s meteoric rise to a reported $500 million market cap before crashing below $60 million, causing significant losses for many investors and attracting regulatory attention. Welch announced the alleged probe closure via comments made to TMZ. Welch told TMZ , “For the past few months, I’ve been cooperating with all the authorities and attorneys, and finally, that work is complete.” Welch’s assertion that she faces no legal consequences related to the HAWK token’s dramatic boom and bust has drawn controversy within the crypto community. Many have now questioned how Welch can walk away without legal consequences despite the financial losses faced by investors. Critics argue that the situation shows a gap in regulatory oversight, especially when it comes to high-risk projects like meme coins. Welch’s lawyer James Sallah added, “The SEC closed the investigation without making any findings against, or seeking any monetary sanctions from, Haliey. Because they did not bring any action against her, there are no restrictions on what she can do in regards to crypto or securities in the future.” Related: Black Friday for Longs? $253 Million Wiped Out in 24 Hours over Binance News Legal analyst James Murphy (known online as “MetaLawMan”), suggested that if the SEC probe was closed without action, it wouldn’t necessarily be surprising. Meme coins are generally not classified as securities, which means the SEC doesn’t have jurisdiction over them. He said that the agency is focusing on its core responsibilities, and if fraud was involved, it could be investigated by criminal prosecutors or state consumer protection agencies. For background, the SEC itself recently clarified that most meme coins don’t meet the criteria for investment contracts it regulates, based on established Supreme Court precedent.

While Welch and her lawyer claim the SEC matter is concluded favorably for her, the absence of official agency confirmation leaves the final status unclear.

Pump.fun, a platform central to Solana’s meme coin boom last year, continues to see sharp declines in protocol fee revenue and overall trading volume. Current data reveals a stark difference from its peak activity earlier in 2025. As of March 28, Pump.fun’s protocol fee revenue stands at $1.2 million, according to data from DefiLlama. This is a significant drop from January, when the revenue was $7.07 million. Specifically, this marks an 83% decline from the all-time high in just three months. While this marks a slight improvement from a low near $671k reported just last week, the steep decline highlights a significant contraction in user activity. The platform now faces considerable loss in both revenue and market presence within the Solana meme coin ecosystem.

As of Friday, the daily volume stood at $97.21 million, compared to $390.3 million in January. This marks a more than 75% decrease from its peak. The decline in Pump.fun’s revenue and trading volume is part of a broader slowdown in the meme coin market, which had seen massive growth in 2024. A report by Binance revealed that meme coins were the top-performing crypto sub-sector in 2024, with average gains of over 212%. Solana became the go-to blockchain for meme coin trading, and Pump.fun played a key role. In 2024, Pump.fun facilitated the launch of over 5.7 million new meme coin projects and generated more than $400 million in revenue.

Many now view the sector, initially popular for perceived “fair launch” opportunities, as increasingly fraught with fraud and manipulation risks. Adding to the platform’s woes, Pump.fun itself was recently compromised. On February 26, the platform’s official Pump.fun X account was hacked and used to promote fraudulent tokens, including a fake governance token named PUMP.

One suit alleges the platform’s easy token launch process facilitated the creation and promotion of unregistered securities, claiming influencers were used misleadingly, resulting in investor losses. That suit seeks rescission of token purchases, damages, and attorney’s fees. This followed a similar earlier lawsuit which, in addition to alleged securities law violations, also accused Pump.fun of allowing the promotion of inappropriate content via its platform.

Just when many thought Pumpfun was losing steam, trading activity soared to a record high on Friday, accounting for 20% of Solana DEX volume and reinforcing its dominance. Over the past 30 days: • Non-Pumpfun memecoins led with 33% of DEX volume. • $SOL - $USD pairs followed at 27%. • Pumpfun memecoins surged to 25%. • Other tokens made up 15%. Raydium, which once handled 70% of Pumpfun trades, has lost ground to PumpSwap, now processing over 60% of them. However, Raydium still controls 90% of non-Pumpfun token trading.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) disclosed on March 27 that it is pursuing civil forfeiture of approximately $23 million in digital assets following a guilty plea from Gotbit Consulting LLC and its founder, Aleksei Andriunin. The DOJ’s move follows criminal proceedings where the Boston-based federal court accepted Gotbit’s admission of manipulating trading activity on behalf of cryptocurrency clients. The firm, which operates as a market maker in the digital asset sector, allegedly engaged in schemes to fabricate trading volumes, misleading investors about liquidity and demand. As part of its resolution with the federal government, Gotbit agreed to surrender the crypto holdings linked to these activities. In its announcement, the DOJ stated: The government seized USDT (tether) and USDC (circle) from un-hosted cryptocurrency wallets controlled by Gotbit Consulting LLC. Tether and circle are stablecoins, meaning their value is tied to the U.S. dollar. The government claims the assets represent proceeds of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud, as well as property involved in unlawful transactions. These allegations are currently part of a civil forfeiture complaint and have not been adjudicated. Andriunin, a 26-year-old dual citizen of Russia and Portugal, was arrested abroad in October 2024 and extradited to the U.S. in February 2025. Prosecutors said that between 2018 and 2024, Gotbit operated a wash trading scheme, using custom-built software and multiple accounts to simulate trading activity and manipulate token prices. Tokens such as Robo Inu and Saitama, which were among Gotbit’s clients, are now under separate investigation. As part of the plea deal, Gotbit agreed to shut down all operations and forfeit the $23 million. The DOJ stated: “Pursuant to the plea agreement with Andriunin, the government will recommend a sentence of up to two years in prison.” 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。
