To vote, you have to send cryptocurrency. That is how VGTimes described, on October 5, a poll that appeared on a site attributed to CyberLeek, the anonymous leaker behind the GTA 6 gameplay videos circulating since August. When VGTimes wrote, both the amount raised and the vote count stood at zero, and results would come, according to the piece, after October 8.

All of this is rumor. CyberLeek has said nothing publicly about this poll on the pages we opened, and VGTimes itself says it is unclear whether the leaker is really responsible or someone is just using the name. The outlet also advises skepticism toward any fundraising done in the name of anonymous sources and says leaks should be treated as rumor until the origin is confirmed.

Not the first time

The format has a history, and that is what gives the current poll context.

On August 19, Insider Gaming reported that CyberLeek opened a vote to choose which gameplay clip would be released next, paid for in his own token, $CYBERLEEK. The options were daytime car, nighttime car, daytime motorcycle and daytime plane. At least one participant paid the equivalent of US$80, the full retail price of the game, according to the outlet. Insider called the scheme “predatory”, writing that charging for alleged leaks and being paid in your own cryptocurrency is “next-level predatory”. The piece also notes that Take-Two filed copyright takedown claims against the material, which Insider reads as a sign the videos may be legitimate, though the outlet itself says uncertainty remains.

Seven days later, on August 26, Gameranx reported a second poll, on whether to leak story spoilers involving Lucia. The result, per the outlet, swung “overwhelmingly” toward leaking based on a single vote from someone who spent thousands of dollars in the leaker's crypto. Hours before the Netflix special, CyberLeek extended the vote: the panel began to say the poll had expired but finalization had not been triggered, and that the final tally would include every token received up to that point. Gameranx suggests he was gauging the reaction to Rockstar's official material before deciding whether to go ahead.

We have already covered the other side of this story, when the leaker claimed to have a playable build. Worth remembering that this was also his own claim, not a confirmed fact.

What changes in the current poll

Two things. First: VGTimes's description speaks of sending cryptocurrency to listed addresses and doesn't mention the $CYBERLEEK token from the August polls; we can't tell whether it is the same coin. Second: there is now a date, the 8th, but the page we opened doesn't say what will be revealed after it. In the sources we read, nobody states what the options are, what is at stake, or whether any leak is promised.

Our reading

This is the site's opinion, not fact. A vote weighted by money rather than headcount measures the wallets of those taking part more than the public's wishes; the single vote worth thousands of dollars reported by Gameranx shows this in practice. If CyberLeek has a stake in his own token, the more noise the poll makes, the better for him. That is a hypothesis about incentives, and none of the sources says it is his intent.

What readers should do

What can be said with confidence is limited. Sending cryptocurrency to an address published by an anonymous account is a financial risk separate from the game, and without confirming who controls the site there is no way to know where the money goes. We don't recommend taking part.

What nobody has confirmed

In the sources we read, there is no confirmation that CyberLeek is behind the poll, nor what will be revealed after October 8, nor a statement from Rockstar or Take-Two about it. We also found no mention of how this kind of poll applies in Brazil; it is an open website, so anyone there can reach it, which is exactly why the warning above matters.

GTA 6's official release date remains November 19, 2026. Anyone who wants to follow what is official can check Rockstar's hub at rockstargames.com/VI, which today shows no October news.
