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.
