The person behind the string of leaked GTA VI footage that circulated over nine days has reportedly cashed out of a memecoin tied to the leaks, just hours before Rockstar's first official gameplay reveal.
The token had climbed to roughly $25 million market cap, riding hype from the drip-feed of unreleased footage attributed to the same leaker. According to reporting, the creator's wallet sold its holdings shortly before Rockstar's own reveal event, an announcement that was always going to shift attention away from leaked clips toward official material.
The timing is the story here. A token built entirely on the mystique of an anonymous leaker loses its reason to exist the moment the studio itself puts out real gameplay — official footage makes leaked footage worthless as a narrative hook. Selling right before that switch flips looks like someone cashing in ahead of their own catalyst disappearing, rather than reacting to news after the fact.
There's no suggestion here of a formal rug pull mechanism or locked liquidity being pulled — this looks like a straightforward founder sell of a token whose value was tied to one person's continued relevance to a leak cycle. Once Rockstar spoke for itself, that relevance had an expiration date, and the creator appears to have gotten out before it hit.
As with most leak-driven or meme-driven tokens tied to a single individual's notoriety, holders were betting on continued hype rather than any product or utility. Whether the token now craters post-reveal, or whether some fresh narrative keeps it alive, is unclear.
Anyone holding this one, or seen similar patterns with other "leaker coins"?
