She pretended to spit saying ‘hawk tuah spit on that thang’, it went viral, and she’s a huge name now – having garnered almost three million Instagram followers and released her own podcast.

She’s brought out her own clothes line with the words ‘Hawk Tuah’ brandished on caps and other items of clothing, but now, she’s tested the cryptocurrency industry and debuted her own meme coin called $HAWK.

The coin’s value completely tanked within 20 minutes of its launch – plummeting from as much as $490 million to just $41 million, leaving fans out of pocket.

It has left investors claiming she carried out a rug pull, which is where creators of cryptocurrency sell off their stock leading to prices crashing and those who put money into it with coins worth next to nothing.
