GTA 6 may be introducing Crypto into its gameplay

A leak has confirmed that the new GTA 6, which is already in development, may include cryptocurrencies that players will be able to earn and trade this cryptocurrency.

In-game trading

In GTA 5, players already had an approach to the stock markets by accessing BAWSAQ and LCN Exchange by selling and buying shares on the stock exchange.

In addition to that, they already had stock market assassination missions which were launched by Lester.

Now with the new GTA 6 leaks, it looks like there may be new ways to make money through cryptocurrencies.

While it all seems to be a rumored leak, a confirmation came directly from Rockstar Games, which, as early as last February, stated the following:

Cryptocurrencies in the gaming community:

While it seems that a version of cryptocurrencies will be brought to GTA 6, it remains to be seen how they will work in general within the game and in what form they will be valuable.

We hope they think well about the tactics with which they are going to include the currency in the game since it is not the first time that a game lived a series of problems when using virtual bitcoins within its plot and anchor to the price of BTC, as was the case of Escape from Tarkov.

The game used physical bitcoins, an internal currency that could be sold according to the real BTC price anchored to the ruble price with a 5:1 scale.

Because of this Escape from Tarkov faced serious problems in the difficulty of its gameplay, as players were just mining bitcoins to make more money, totally breaking the plot for which it had been developed.

Conclusion:

This news can be something that brings us a lot of hype and it is valid that we can get excited about the arrival of cryptocurrencies in an AAA-style game, we have to keep good expectations until we understand how it is going to work.
