Grand Theft Auto 6, the highly anticipated title from the popular game series, has sparked online discussions about its integration of cryptocurrency following recent claims.
A tweet from a crypto influencer named Gordon went viral, asserting that GTA 6 will support Bitcoin ($BTC), Ethereum ($ETH), and Tether ($USDT) transactions. This tweet, accompanied by a trailer, has garnered significant attention.
Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, have not confirmed any plans to include cryptocurrencies in GTA 6. Official announcements and trailers released have made no mention of such features.
Are NFTs and Crypto Confirmed for GTA 6? The Unverified Rumors
A History of Unverified Crypto Claims
This is not the first time rumors about cryptocurrency in GTA 6 have surfaced. Similar claims were made in the previous years after an X post and a leaked trailer with “BUY $BTC” appeared, but these rumors were not substantiated.
In late 2022, the company banned the use of cryptocurrencies and NFTs on player-run GTA 5 servers and whilst Take-Two Interactive has explored the blockchain space with its acquisition of Zynga, which launched a blockchain game on Ethereum, there is no indication that this will extend to the upcoming title.
The game is expected to release in 2025 and any future announcements will clarify its features. As of now, there is no confirmed information about cryptocurrency features in GTA 6.
