Good story, but the writing was a bit too choppy, Dragnet style, for me, and over the length of the book, it started feeling more like a list of facts than a book.
Really well-done true crime story. Bilton get is inside the heads of the key figures in the Silk Road story.
First time that I listened to a non-fiction audiobook. This was so well written that at times I had to remind myself that it's a true story and not a piece of fiction. This book was definitely riveting and I couldn't wait to listen to the next chapter.

This book was first published in 2013 and so much has changed since then. Twitter (now X, in what has to be the silliest of rebrandings) has become perhaps less relevant than it ever was. Musk has seen the price fall through the floor and see value evaporate.
Fun book if you like business origin stories, but he really needs to do a follow-up, perhaps annually.… (altro)
