Hayden Davis, a known crypto scammer wanted by Interpol, launched the WOLF meme coin, which reached a $40 million market cap before crashing.
On-chain analysis revealed that a large portion of WOLF's supply was controlled by wallets linked to Davis.
Davis, despite his history of fraudulent activities and Interpol warrant, continues to create new crypto projects under false identities.
Despite being wanted by Interpol, notorious crypto scammer Hayden Davis is back at it. This time, heโs behind WOLFโa meme coin that skyrocketed to a $40 million market cap before crashing in days. Itโs the same old story: hype, FOMO, and then a sudden collapse, leaving investors in shock.
Davis is no stranger to the game. He has already pulled off multiple rug pulls, including LIBRA and MELANIA, vanishing with millions while investors are left counting their losses. Yet, despite his criminal history and ongoing scams, he keeps launching new tokens under fake identities – slipping past authorities and fooling traders again and again.
So how does he keep getting away with it? And what exactly happened with WOLF? Letโs break it down.
The WOLF Hype Trap – Another Scam in Disguise?
WOLF gained popularity after being promoted by the WallStreetBets (WSB) community, attracting a wave of investors. But on-chain analysts at Bubblemaps soon uncovered a major warning signโ82% of the total supply was controlled by a small group of wallets. This suggested insider manipulation and a possible rug pull.
Bubblemaps, working with crypto investigator Coffeezilla, traced 17 addresses and five cross-chain transfers, all linking back to a single wallet: OxcEAe. They claim this wallet belongs to Hayden Davis.

โStarting with the WOLF creator 6MsuHd, we followed funding transfers back across 17 addresses and five cross-chain transfers. All led to a single address: OxcEAeโthe same one owned by Hayden Davis!โ
Despite these concerns, WOLF shot up to a $40 million market cap before crashing, reinforcing suspicions that Davis was behind yet another scam.
Davisโs Long List of Crypto Scams
Crypto analyst Ian Balina warned about these overly hyped and unregulated projects. He pointed out that WOLF looks strikingly similar to one of Davisโs past scams, HOOD, and is even linked to the same wallet addressโan obvious red flag for investors.
This is far from Davisโs first crypto scam. His most infamous project, LIBRA, was once backed by Argentine President Javier Milei, who claimed it could help Argentinaโs struggling economy. Investors poured in, pushing LIBRAโs market cap past $1 billionโonly to see it crash overnight.
The fallout was devastating. Over $99 million in liquidity disappeared, leaving more than 10,000 investors with total losses of $250 million. Meanwhile, Davis allegedly cashed out nearly $100 million before the collapse. After this, Argentine lawyer Gregorio Dalbon demanded Davisโs arrest and called for an Interpol Red Notice against him.
Who Is Hayden Davis? A Scammerโs Origin Story
Hayden Davisโs past is as shady as his crypto ventures. Once a college dropout selling Oreos and energy drinks, he later co-founded Kelsier Ventures, a questionable investment firm run by his father, Tom Davisโa convicted felon.
Despite his history of fraud and multiple accusations, Davis keeps launching new meme coins and draining investor funds.
