Lead Plaintiff motion deadline
  • $HAWK investors filed a lawsuit against Tuah The Moon Foundation for misleading buyers by promoting $HAWK tokens as profitable investments while failing to register them as securities.
  • On December 4, 2024, $HAWK launched with a market capitalization of $16.69 million, rapidly reaching $491 million before plummeting over 90% within hours.
  • $HAWK investors can join this case to be notified about potential recovery.
Case Details:

Between November 26, 2024, and December 5, 2024, the defendants promoted $HAWK as a groundbreaking memecoin combining blockchain technology with mainstream culture. Influencer Haliey Welch, known for her podcast "Talk Tuah," helped attract many first-time cryptocurrency investors.

During its pre-sale, $HAWK raised about $2.8 million through whitelisting and airdrops. When the token launched on the Solana blockchain on December 4, 2024, its market value soared to $491 million within hours.

However, the token’s value crashed shortly after, losing over 90%, leaving many investors who followed Welch’s endorsements with significant losses. The complaint claims $HAWK was marketed as an investment promising profits, classifying it as a security under U.S. law. Despite this, the defendants failed to register the token with the SEC, violating the Securities Act.

Based on these events, $HAWK investors filed a lawsuit against Tuah The Moon Foundation, claiming:
  • It misled investors about $HAWK’s potential as a secure and profitable investment.
  • It sold unregistered securities in violation of federal securities laws.
Investors believe the defendants misrepresented $HAWK as a safe and lucrative investment.
