The Super Bowl Crypto Ads Recap
FTX, eToro, Crypto.com and Coinbase all debuted crypto ads during Super Bowl 2022 on Sunday when the Los Angeles Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals.
The one that drew the most attention was undoubtedly Coinbase Commercial of a color-changing QR code, silently moving across the screen. The QR code redirected viewers to Coinbase’s landing page, promoting a Bitcoin (BTC) giveaway upon sign-up.
Due to overwhelming interest, the Coinbase App became temporarily unavailable.

Crypto.com continued its “Fortune Favors the Brave” campaign and featured La Lakers legendary forward Lebron James in a one-on-one with his younger self. The 2013 Lebron asks the real Lebron about what is to come and got the following answer:
“I can’t tell you everything, but if you want to make history, you gotta call your own shots.”
Just a day earlier, Lebron James became the NBA’s highest scoring player in all its history.
In his moment of truth, @KingJames called it.
