The GTA 6 trailer surfaced 15 hours before the official Rockstar Games launch on December 5, 2023, prompting an unexpected early release of the trailer. Despite its poor quality, the leaked footage, which appeared on Monday, featured a prominent watermark displaying the message “Buy #BTC” (Bitcoin). The reason behind the inclusion of the “Buy #BTC” watermark in the GTA 6 trailer remains shrouded in mystery.
This occurrence is not the first instance of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies being linked to GTA 6, as there were earlier rumors suggesting that the individual responsible for leaking the GTA 6 gameplay the previous year was involved in Bitcoin transactions on the DarkWeb. However, details surrounding the alleged connection between Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and GTA 6 remain vague.
Furthermore, speculations abound regarding the potential integration of an in-built Bitcoin or cryptocurrency payment system in GTA 6. Unverified rumors suggest that anonymous billionaires within the game might utilize cryptocurrencies for mission completion payments. To ascertain the validity of these speculations, we will need to wait until the game’s release in 2025. If such features are indeed present, GTA 6 could mark an innovative intersection of virtual gaming and cryptocurrency.
