A person or group tied to nine days of unreleased Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay leaks has cashed out of a Solana memecoin promoted through the leaks, according to CoinDesk and Tom’s Hardware. CoinDesk reported that the token, $CYBERLEEK, reached a $25 million market capitalization after days of leaked GTA VI footage circulated online. Tom’s Hardware says the cash-out happened Thursday, hours before Rockstar’s official Extended Look premiered on Netflix. The campaign appears to have linked attention from the leaks directly to crypto trading. According to Tom’s Hardware, the “Cyberleek” persona watermarked leaked clips with the token name, a QR code, and a promise that higher market capitalization would unlock more leaks. The outlet says $CYBERLEEK was minted on Solana around August 15, a few days before the first gameplay clip appeared. The exit amount is less firmly corroborated from the provided material. Tom’s Hardware reports, citing on-chain data reported by CoinDesk, that the wallet which created the token claimed about $146,000 in wrapped SOL plus 15.4 million tokens in accumulated creator fees, then sold the allocation for about $125,000 in SOL in a single transaction. Tom’s Hardware also cites GTAForums user ViceCit, who has been documenting the episode, as putting the total exit near $250,000 across four transactions. Tom’s Hardware frames the mechanics as fee extraction rather than a simple founder-token dump. Citing PC Gamer’s explanation, it says liquidity providers can collect a cut of trading fees through the pool, meaning each burst of leak-driven trading volume could generate fees for the token’s creator as liquidity provider. The token’s price has fallen sharply from its reported peak. Tom’s Hardware says $CYBERLEEK peaked around $0.0344 on August 23, citing data reported by CoinDesk, and later traded near $0.002725 while continuing to fall. CoinDesk’s summary separately says the token hit a $25 million market cap before the creator sold out. There are also legal and traceability questions. Tom’s Hardware reports that Take-Two filed Digital Millennium Copyright Act subpoenas on August 20 seeking to have Microsoft and Discord identify the “CyberLeek” persona by September 4, and that it later served a similar subpoena on X. The same report says proceeds were moved into four newly created wallets after the cash-out, with at least 91 SOL deposited in a KuCoin account and another portion sent to CCE.Cash, an anonymous non-custodial swap service. The public record remains incomplete. The provided items establish that reputable outlets are reporting a leak-linked token exit hours before Rockstar’s reveal, but the precise economics of the trade and the identity behind “Cyberleek” remain dependent on on-chain interpretation and third-party documentation cited by Tom’s Hardware. Who benefits: The apparent near-term beneficiary was the token creator, who Tom’s Hardware reports exited with roughly $250,000 across transactions. Traders who bought near the reported peak appear exposed to the token’s subsequent decline. Who's exposed: Rockstar and Take-Two are exposed to leak-driven promotion of unauthorized footage and the costs of identification and enforcement. Crypto traders are exposed to event-driven memecoins where the issuer’s incentives may be to maximize volume rather than sustain value.
