Why should it be an advertising campaign? Using a made-up name, filling videos with watermarks and pushing a crypto meme coin?
I don’t even see how this could be something good for them. They are going to officially show it in a week and I don’t think they need more hype than that they already have.
These are just people who are trying to make money with crypto.
The very first GTA was promoted through “outrage” that they stirred up themselves. I trust their marketing department about as far as I can throw them.
The issue with this theory is the crypto scam, but aside from that I would guess that this way they can keep their players engaged with the game since they don’t like sharing anything at all and gamers want everything as soon as possible

But it turns out you are actually Andre the Giant, so you can throw them very far and thus trust them a lot.
