CYBERLEEK wallets withdraw $350,000 in liquidity fees linked to GTA VI leak

On‑chain analyst Conor Grogan traced roughly $350,000 in withdrawals to wallets associated with the CYBERLEEK memecoin. The funds originated from liquidity‑provider fees generated after unauthorized GTA VI footage drew attention to the token.

Liquidity fees, not a token dump

Grogan said the proceeds came from fees earned by supplying CYBERLEEK liquidity on a Solana‑based decentralized exchange, not from a large direct sale of the token. Each release of leaked gameplay spurred trading activity, increasing the fee revenue collected by the liquidity provider.

Movement of the funds

The analyst observed that the $350,000 passed through several over‑the‑counter (OTC) providers before being moved elsewhere. He described the transfers as “washed,” but noted that no regulator or court has ruled the funds to be illicit.

Take‑Two’s parallel investigation

Take‑Two Interactive has issued federal subpoenas to Microsoft and Discord seeking account information that could identify the individuals who distributed the GTA VI leaks. The subpoenas, filed in August, required the companies to produce records by September 4.

Unidentified controller

The on‑chain data does not reveal the legal identity of the CYBERLEEK operator. While the token’s activity aligns with the timing of the leaks, no court filing or official statement has linked a named person to the wallets.

Implications for memecoin models

Grogan highlighted this case as the first he has seen where a suspected hacker profited solely through liquidity provision rather than dumping a token. The model shows how controversy can generate ongoing revenue for a token creator without a conventional token sale.
