At Super Bowl LVII, the Kansas City Chiefs referees emerged victorious over the Philadelphia Eagles. But maybe the real winner was us, the viewers, who did not have to sit through a bunch of crypto ads this year. (Also, Rihanna. She won.)

These ads offer an insight into the way that the companies we write about everyday market themselves to the average consumer — and sometimes they can be intensely prescient time capsules. See: last year’s FTX ad starring America’s favorite curmudgeon, Larry David, who underestimates the potential of innovations like the lightbulb and the dishwasher — and he makes the same “mistake” by choosing not to invest with FTX. In retrospect, the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star’s intuition was pretty, pretty, pretty good.
