However, shortly after, the episode disappeared from her YouTube channel without explanation. Despite this, clips of the conversation have already started circulating on social media, particularly X.

The episode featured Richard “FaZe Banks” Bengtson, the founder of the gaming group FaZe Clan, along with NFT project creator Rohun “Frank” Vora and content creator Threadguy.

The discussion focused on Welch’s experience with launching a meme coin, the issues that arose, and how the situation unfolded.

Welch described how she agreed to the meme coin’s launch but later discovered that the deployer controlled 80% of its supply. Soon after, the token’s value collapsed, which led to a backlash that pushed her offline for months.

At the start of the podcast's episode, she admitted:

I’m still a little shaken up about it.

The conversation was largely about what went wrong and the legal issues that followed. Welch is currently working with lawyers who have filed a lawsuit against her former partners. She suggested that she did not fully understand what she was getting into, and the guests seemed to agree.

Meanwhile, a group of YouTube content creators known as the Nelk Boys recently faced a lawsuit. What happened? Read the full story.
