I don't know whey this show does not have so many great reviews. I found it to be entertaining & a good format for a story line. I originally got interested because the show portrayed itself around Bitcoin. Once I watched it, I was hooked. The show gets a lot right about the strange world of crypto-currency.

I work for a company that was hired to build a new crypto-currency using Ethereum around the time season 1 came out. coincidentally the name was very close to "Gen-Coin". It was for a guy out of China but listed his company as a U.S. entity based out of LA. We put several great coders to work to build the new crypto-currency. We had the currency & the exchange up and running. Eventually we found out the guy was using the new currency as a ponzi scheme. He eventually got arrested trying to flee china & was thrown in jail for the scam. At the end we got burnt, lost a lot money, and got a crash course in the ways of the dark web and the new age of crypto-currency.

This is what got me interested in the show. Based on my experience, I would say this is a great show. Granted sometimes it feels little far fetched but it's very entertaining. It gives a great window into the world of startups as well as the new world of dark web & blockchain.

Some loonytoons compared this to THE WIRE and that made me want to see it, cause THE WIRE is one of the best series of all time.

But while THE WIRE has some of the most fascinating characters in tv and film (alot because most of them are based on real people) this series has some of the most blandest characters in a series in recent memory.

I usually don't mind the cast (the ones I know of, never heard of the woman before) but here they are rather dull and incredibly emotionless.

4 episodes and then I gave up, there are so many series I want to watch out there so why continue with one that can barely hold my attention? Think I'll give 'POWER' a go instead... Or maybe start 'EMPIRE' season 2, it's a bit cheesy but at least it entertains.

Good enough series IMO. Good story line (if a little drawn out out times) but season 1 is definitely the best, tails off some over season 2 and especially season 3. Good cast and great acting most of the time and makes a great change from the flood of super-hero drivel and the standard cop 'who dunnit' stuff. The only thing that grates on me with many series these days is that they just get abandoned rather than finished, as happened here, pulled after the 3rd season.

The characters are all well portrayed, the only annoyance for me being little miss 'Sulkatita', Izzy Morales who does nothing but moan, frown and sulk throughout; when she's not rolling her eyes or shaking head (because in HER eyes everyone else is a dick) she ranting and raving. Odd that anyone helps or even wants to have anything to do with her at all really given how immature and selfish she is, she has a downer on just about everyone and is prone to childish temper tantrums whenever she's not getting her own way, which is most of the time. IMO the attitude of that character could have done with being dialled back some, it gets tiresome. The other problem with it is that there are some gaping holes in the story line with threads from previous episode just being glossed over or even dropped entirely, smacks of lazy writing or a 'can't be bothered with that anymore' approach. 7 overall but that's helped a lot by season 1.
