The critical collapse of CYBERLEEK occurred on August 27, just hours before the official gameplay demonstration of the video game on Netflix.
A Complex Scheme
Since mid-August, the group had been releasing GTA 6 gameplay videos online. Later, these videos began to include links to donation wallets and the contract address for the CYBERLEEK token, launched via PumpFun.
Fueled by the hype around the video game and the hackers’ high social activity, the token’s market capitalization peaked at around $25 million.
According to an investigation by a user known as Vice Cit, CyberLeek employed an unconventional method for a rug pull, yet still exhibited signs of a pump.
To build community trust, they burned their entire reserve of 270 million CYBERLEEK (worth about $1.79 million at the time), which was held in a private wallet belonging to the group.
Subsequent CyberLeek videos directed users to a site where they were encouraged to vote for new leaks using the token. The frequency of these posts increased, eventually including plot spoilers.
Vice Cit speculated that the hackers aimed to profit from transaction fees, but as the official GTA 6 demonstration approached, they decided to cash out all their earnings.
According to on-chain data, a wallet linked to CyberLeek received $154,683 in wSOL and 15.4 million CYBERLEEK as royalties. Shortly before the Netflix premiere, the tokens were sold for approximately $125,000, causing a 40% price drop.
The token had been losing ground even before the creators’ dump, but their actions led to a complete collapse. Within days, the CYBERLEEK price fell from $0.03 to $0.003 — a 90% drop.
Vice Cit suggested that not all CyberLeek wallets have been publicly identified. They may have been offloading small amounts from unknown addresses.
The tracked coins were transferred by the group to platforms like KuCoin and CCE.Cash, with some moved to private wallets.
“I believe [CyberLeek] expected to earn much more from this project, and the messages in the latest videos seem somewhat panicked. As the token’s price continued to fall and public interest waned, they likely decided to cash out,” concluded Vice Cit.
Earlier in May, unknown individuals hacked the social media accounts of trader Keith Gill, known as Roaring Kitty. The attackers published the contract address of the meme coin RKC, causing a sharp rise in the asset’s price.
