With no official word on GTA 6 having been made yet, leaks surrounding the game and what it will entail are major discussion topics in the community. A recent leak reports that a GTA 6 cryptocurrency system could be included in the next entry in the popular franchise.

To say there is a considerable amount of excitement among fans regarding GTA 6 is an understatement, even when Rockstar Games has not provided any official word on the game regarding if it’s in development or when players can expect to learn more about it.

However, this radio silence from Rockstar Games about GTA 6 has not lessened any of the interest players have in the next expected entry in the franchise, with leaks about the game being popular topics of discussion.

One of the most recent leaks regarding GTA 6 has come from well-known video game industry leaker Tom Henderson, who has been one of the main go-to voices when it comes to leaks regarding Battlefield 2021 and other games, that points towards cryptocurrency being a major factor in the world of GTA 6.

Henderson took to Twitter on June 3, 2021, and posted how he had heard that some missions will reward players with Bitcoin instead of cash and that there will be a broker for different forms of cryptocurrency.

He went on to clarify that he means these will be in-game payments of cryptocurrency and that it likely will not be called Bitcoin but will be some form of cryptocurrency that come from “higher up characters that need to transfer high amounts of “untraceable cash and fast.”

It is important to note that this information regarding a possible GTA 6 cryptocurrency system has not been officially confirmed and should be taken with a grain of salt and not treated as absolute fact.

However, if this kind of system does come to fruition, it would likely mean that the setting of GTA 6 would be of a modern time period and not one set in an older time like the 1980s, which some leaks have suggested could be the potential setting of the game.

There is no doubt that the inclusion of a cryptocurrency system would provide an exciting feature to GTA 6 that would catch players’ eyes.
