This is a true story. But the movie is missing some feelings. Tbh, I expected more. [spoiler] The capture scene is true as hell. Fbi followed him to a library and waited him to login the account where bitcoins were because if he hadn't logged on, they would not able to seize the coins as they were encrypted. With a distraction from a homeless, they made the attack. After sometime, government sold those bitcoins in an auction. I did not catch it in the movie.[/spoiler] I believe this scene is the main scene and could be better. It was not so strong enough.

You're missing out on lots by watching this movie which seems like a poor portrayal of events, give it a miss. Read or listen to the audiobook 'American Kingpin' and you'll get a far more accurate record of events and a better feeling of all the people involved. Did the movie miss the part where Ross cultivated mushrooms to start the Silk Road and was conflicted about telling his girlfriend? Book 9/10 and the movie is a 5, tops.

Great as I wasn’t aware of the story 8/10. Watch the BBC Storyviile documentary as it’s even better.

Having read the book, this would have worked much better as a mini series. Everything happened too quickly, removing any buildup.

This is bullshit. I didn't know the story before this movie, and I've got to say, what this young guy did is amazing! What people doing in their own lives is their own choise.
