Adin Ross is one of the most controversial yet influential streamers in the world and has recently made a bold promise about Rockstar Games’ upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6). During a live stream with FaZe Banks, Ross announced his plans to launch a GTA 6 RP (Roleplaying) server that will allow players to earn money through cryptocurrency.
If it sounds ridiculous to you, that’s because it kind of is. Rockstar and Take-Two already prohibit things of this nature in GTA 5‘s RP servers. So even if GTA RP takes off again in the new game, we most certainly can’t expect any kind of crypto integration with it. Besides the game probably won’t even be on PC at launch.
Adin Ross has set his sights on GTA 6 RP but did he think it through?
During a recent live stream with FaZe Banks, Adin Ross let us know his vision for a GTA 6 RP server unlike any before it. Ross claimed that the server would be entirely based on cryptocurrency and it would let players earn money while playing. He even went on to promise that he’d invest a lot of funds to make it the largest GTA RP server ever.

FaZe Banks supported the idea by sharing that they intended to power the server’s economy with a custom digital token. According to Ross, the integration of crypto into GTA RP will “change the game”. We’ve already seen how big GTA RP can get and this is a big promise. But is it even feasible?
Rockstar Games has a strict stance on cryptocurrency and NFTs in Grand Theft Auto RP servers. Back in November 2022, the company published guidelines explicitly prohibiting commercial exploitation in RP servers, which includes the sale of virtual currencies, the use of cryptocurrencies, and selling NFTs. Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar’s parent company, has even taken legal action against servers that violated these policies so Ross better watch out.
GTA 6 will probably have RP in some way
Even if Ross’ server idea were possible, a new RP scene may take years to fully develop. GTA 5’s RP servers only became mainstream after years of modding and community development, with platforms like FiveM playing a crucial role in their success. Rockstar’s recent acquisition of FiveM suggests that the company intends to support RP in GTA 6, but likely on its own terms.
Even if Rockstar were to allow crypto integration in GTA 6 RP servers, history suggests that such ventures rarely succeed. Ubisoft’s attempt to introduce NFTs into Ghost Recon failed, and the NFT-backed game DEADROP from Midnight Society recently shut down. blockchain a predatory cash grab
Take-Two Interactive has confirmed that GTA 6 is still on track for a Fall 2025 release, despite the lack of a second trailer. We don’t know of any solid release date but fans are speculating that it could be sometime in late November. Either way, there’s a lot of hype for the game and the kind of new trends that it will undoubtedly set.
