would be a fun concept if this wasn't filled with racism
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Oof. Adore the concept and the basis of the plot but the finished product is... disappointing. The heists themselves are explained very poorly to the point where "hacking some bitcoin" is just "hacking some bitcoin", and the only explanation given as to how this is possible is "I learned this at college." Also, the writing just felt disjointed. Sentences and conversations didn't flow in ways that actual conversations do, and at points the way the dialogue was written felt almost robotic.
