Zcash falls nearly 30% from September high amid prolonged crypto selloff
Zcash has dropped nearly 30% from its September peak amid a broader crypto selloff. Key catalysts include a potential spot ETF and the NU7 network upgrade.
The anonymous GTA 6 leaker made about $350,000 in fees from the CyberLeek meme coin, not from selling tokens.
On-chain analyst Conor Grogan reports that the anonymous operator behind the CyberLeek meme coin pocketed about $350,000. The money came entirely from liquidity fees rather than from directly selling tokens.
The withdrawal happened as the CYBERLEEK coin experienced a steep price drop.
Grogan said on September 1 that CyberLeek's creator moved the money through several OTC providers. That method turns digital assets into fiat without needing large token sales on public exchanges.
This approach is quite different from a typical pump-and-dump. Instead of selling big amounts of CYBERLEEK, the project's wallet made money by collecting fees from other traders who transacted in its liquidity pool.

This is the first hacker that I've ever seen make money solely on liquidity provision (versus dumping a token) https://t.co/5czgluVKBn pic.twitter.com/ABzjSjYAed
This strategy relies on continued trading activity. The viral GTA VI leaks seemed to provide that, drawing buyers and speculators with each new clip. Rising volume also exposed participants to more volatility and potential losses.
Blockchain analysts date the CYBERLEEK token's creation to August 15. The Solana-based asset was released alongside each new leak as part of a larger effort, but the person or people behind the controlling wallets remain unknown to the public.
Rockstar Games confirmed the leaks on August 26, describing the situation as heartbreaking. It did not specifically name CyberLeek or reach a firm conclusion on where the leaks originated. The studio has since filed federal subpoenas targeting Microsoft and Discord to advance the investigation.
At the latest reading, CYBERLEEK was trading around $0.002959, down 25.6% in the last 24 hours, per CoinGecko data. Its market cap stood at $2.17 million, with $2.69 million in 24-hour volume.
The token's price has fluctuated heavily in a single day, from $0.0024 to $0.0041. It now sits roughly 91% below its all-time high, reached on August 23.
