'Start Up' Season 3 review: The controversial network built on cryptocurrency takes center stage in the gritty drama

Araknet, the central theme of 'Start Up' sees the gang once again set for a showdown with their oldest and most notorious enemy, the U. S. government
UPDATED OCT 31, 2018

Bitcoin has been the subject of several controversies considering its non-conforming nature as a currency. It has been under the watchful radar of authorities due to its decentralizing nature which makes it a pure market currency. This is the very ground on which the third season of Sony Crackle's 'Start Up', starring Adam Brody and Edi Gathegi, treads upon and as the most Generation Z defining show this season, the story takes into account every contemporary element of the decade.

The gritty drama, in the last two seasons, followed four unlikely tech entrepreneurs in Miami whose lives seem to be connected by certain events, and they come together to create the world's largest uninterrupted network, Araknet, which can reach people beyond government boundaries.
