Getting paid for playing GTA 6 sounds like a dream job to gamers. The best part is it’s not anymore a dream. Kalshi, a prediction market platform, now wants a researcher who can do more than enjoy playing the game.
The company is hiring a GTA VI Researcher to study the game’s economy and track its impact on the real world. The job will begin as soon as GTA 6 launches on November 19. The person has to play the game and finish the campaign, alongwith analyzing its in-game economy and finds ‘the optimal money-making strategy.’
Kalshi is offering USD 100,000 to USD 120,000 for the project, along with a USD 15,000 bonus for completing it. The company wants gamers to take the position seriously. It says, “You'll stream the entire journey, investigate Leonida's economy, and study what happens to the real economy.”
The researcher will have to explore Leonida, the game's fictional state, and find the best ways to make money. They must test different methods and share their findings in weekly reports. Kalshi also wants the person to look at how GTA 6 affects daily life. This includes checking whether people take time off work, whether food delivery orders change, and how many work hours are lost during the launch.

This job is not for someone who just plays games in their free time. Kalshi wants applicants with more than a decade of gaming experience and three years of streaming experience. They must also have their own gaming and streaming setup. Therefore, any established streamer with their own channel fits to the job role.
The person should know how to test different ways to make money in games and understand which methods work best. A degree in economics or finance is helpful, but it is not required.
Kalshi’s job offer takes gaming to a different level. The selected person will not just play GTA 6 for fun. They will get paid to study almost everything the game has to offer.
