The group responsible for the GTA 6 leaks, known as CyberLeek, has significantly devalued its own token. Researchers estimate that the hackers profited approximately $286,000 from the dump and transaction fees.

The dramatic collapse of CYBERLEEK took place on August 27, mere hours before an official gameplay presentation of the video game on Netflix.

Complex Scheme

Since mid-August, the group had been posting gameplay videos of GTA 6 online. Later, these videos began including links to wallets for donations and to the contract address of the CYBERLEEK token, which was launched via PumpFun.

The excitement surrounding the game and the hackers' social media activity propelled the token's market capitalization to peak at around $25 million.

According to an investigation by a user known as Vice Cit, CyberLeek employed an unconventional method for a rug pull but still exhibited signs of "pump and dump" behavior.

To build trust within the community, they burned their entire reserve of 270 million CYBERLEEK tokens (valued at about $1.79 million at the time), which was held in a private wallet.

Subsequent videos from CyberLeek directed viewers to a website where users could vote on new leaks using the token. As the frequency of posts increased, the content of the videos escalated to plot spoilers.

Vice Cit speculated that the hackers aimed to profit from transaction fees, but as the official GTA 6 presentation approached, they opted to withdraw all their earnings.

On-chain data indicates that a wallet associated with CyberLeek received $154,683 in wSOL and 15.4 million CYBERLEEK in the form of creator fees. Shortly before the Netflix premiere, the tokens were sold for approximately $125,000, causing the price to plummet by 40%.

Even before the creators' dump, the token had been losing value, but their actions caused it to collapse entirely. Within a few days, the price of CYBERLEEK fell from $0.03 to $0.003, a staggering 90% drop.

Vice Cit also noted that not all CyberLeek wallets may have been publicly disclosed, suggesting they could have been offloading smaller amounts from unknown addresses.

The tracked tokens were transferred to platforms such as KuCoin and CCE.Cash, with some sent to private wallets.

I believe that [CyberLeek] expected to earn much more from this project, and the messages in their recent videos seem somewhat panicked. As the token price continued to decline and public interest waned, they likely decided to cash out,

— summed up Vice Cit.

It is worth noting that in May, unknown individuals hacked the social media accounts of trader Keith Gill, known as Roaring Kitty, leading to a sharp rise in the price of the RKC meme coin after a contract address was published.
