If anything, insiders usually leak pre-release builds so crackers can start early.

Denuvo state themselves that it only protects for certain period not infinitely so probably it is just hackers not releasing cracks immediately due to multiple possible reasons:

1) legal action if published got his 2-3 months when sales are at peak they are less likely to go after the crackers

2) games are often released very buggy thanks to online patching available, so they just wait for games to stabilize as not to update cracks weekly

3) less demand for cracks due to steam and sales, I feel like people wait for sales or prices to drop off in general
