Ahead of its official debut on December 5, the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer from Rockstar Games was unexpectedly leaked, causing a buzz across Twitter (X). This early peek, adorned with a prominent ‘Buy Bitcoin’ watermark, disrupted the prolonged anticipation for the latest GTA series installment.

The Leaked Teaser
Emerging from the account @Gta6trailerleak, created explicitly for divulging GTA 6 content, the leaked trailer, although swiftly removed by X, made a brief appearance before the account was suspended within an hour.

Swift Response & Official Release
In response, Rockstar Games promptly launched the official trailer on YouTube, within approximately 10 minutes of the leaker’s account suspension.

Cryptocurrency References
Notably, the leaked video bore a conspicuous “BUY $BTC” watermark, adding to the intrigue. X, under Musk’s helm, has experienced a surge in leaks and unauthorized content, particularly post the introduction of extended-length video uploads for premium subscribers.

Linda Yaccarino, X’s CEO, had previously highlighted Rockstar’s promotional post for GTA 6, boasting over 90 million views within a mere 12 hours. Her statement, “See you Tuesday!” ironically preceded this unexpected leak.

GTA 6 and Crypto Speculations
Set for a 2025 release on PlayStation and Xbox, with a subsequent PC version anticipated, GTA 6’s launch strategy echoes that of Red Dead Redemption 2. Despite uncertainties, questions linger regarding potential blockchain integration into the game. While this remains improbable, indications suggest possible inclusion of crypto references and satirical elements in the game’s narrative.
