Popular YouTuber and gamer Edin Ross has announced ambitious plans for a Grand Theft Auto 6-themed role-playing server, promising players the unique opportunity to monetize their in-game activities. During an appearance on the FULL SEND PODCAST, Ross detailed his vision for what could be one of the most expansive and innovative RP projects to date.

Ross stated, "The core focus is immersive role-playing. My server will be unparalleled in both scale and quality. Upon the release of GTA 6, we'll introduce a blockchain-powered economic model. This means players won't just play—they'll actively participate in a real-world economy integrated with my platform."
He elaborated that players will earn in-game currency through various jobs and activities within the server, subsequently converting these earnings into real-world rewards.
Ross added, "My goal is to create an environment where gamers don't just play, but truly inhabit the world I've built."
While the concept has garnered enthusiastic support from some viewers, others have expressed reservations, voicing concerns about potential exploitation and its suitability for traditional gamers. Critics argue that such profit-driven systems could undermine the core principles of RP gaming, which typically emphasizes creative expression and immersive storytelling over financial incentives.
Role-playing servers provide players with character-driven scenarios, governed by established rules and guidelines, encouraging collaborative storytelling and dynamic player interactions.
