Crypto, NFTs, VR, QR, and EVs – Oh My!

Amidst dozens of celebrity cameos, electric vehicles, and crypto stole the show this past Sunday.

We must admit, it is neat to see EVs and Crypto being pushed to the general public, and it certainly worked. Crypto-related app downloads increased by 279% compared to the week prior. And who said traditional media advertising was dead?
