Leonida docs
Leonida is the GTA VI state rebuilt in 3D, with one coin for every character, animal, place and meme, pinned where it lives. This page explains what you are looking at.
Overview
The map covers the whole state from the community-made map of Leonida: 6 regions, real relief, 80+ bridges, buildings, trees and a city that lights up at night. On top of it sit -- coins and -- named places.
Each coin is a pin. Before launch a pin shows the portrait and where it lives. After launch it shows live market cap, 24h change and volume, and the busiest coins glow and grow on the map.

Coins
Exact means the spot comes from the community landmark database (for example Lucia's apartment or the Rusty Anchor). Approx. means the coin is placed in its region until the exact spot is known; it moves once the game is out.

How a coin lights up
Every coin is launched on Flap (BNB Chain). As soon as its contract address is added to the map, its pin switches from "not launched" to live:
- price, market cap, 24h change and 24h volume are read from DexScreener every 30 seconds;
- the pin shows the market cap next to the name, and its glow and size follow the 24h volume;
- the region card adds up the market cap of every coin in that region.
Nothing is stored on our side and the map never asks for a wallet: buttons open Flap and DexScreener directly.
$LEONIDA
$LEONIDA is the coin of the map itself. Its contract address is shown at the top of the map and on the $LEONIDA page. Only trust that address.

FAQ
Is this the official GTA VI map?
No. It is built from the community map made from the trailers and screenshots. It will be corrected against the real game after Nov 19.
Why is a coin "approx."?
Its exact location is not known yet. It sits in the right region until it is.
Can I suggest a coin?
Yes: new characters, animals and places from the game get added as they show up.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. The phone version loads a lighter map so it opens fast on mobile data.
