Cyberleek, the person or group behind the recent GTA 6 leaks, has reportedly started cashing out after generating around $270,000 through cryptocurrency promoted alongside the leaked footage. The still-unknown figure has spent more than a week releasing unauthorized Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay while Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive work to remove the material and identify whoever is responsible.

According to an August 27 analysis from Vice Cit on GTA Forums, approximately $270,000 was withdrawn from transaction fees generated by the $CYBERLEEK token. Vice Cit estimates that roughly $29,000 was initially spent setting up the operation, potentially leaving the person or group behind Cyberleek with around $241,000 in profit if the campaign ends here. The money was reportedly split across four transactions before being sent to several destinations, including cryptocurrency exchange KuCoin and swapping service CCE.Cash. At the time the analysis was published, some of the funds were still sitting in separate wallets. The activity suggests that whoever operates Cyberleek has started withdrawing proceeds from the GTA 6 leaks campaign, although moving cryptocurrency between wallets doesn’t necessarily mean the entire amount has been converted to fiat currency.
