‘Make crypto less complicated’
Prescott went on to say that he was excited to “make crypto less complicated” as he publicised a newly-released Blockchain.com advert featuring the player. As part of the deal, the quarterback will appear in advertisements on television, radio and social media and will also make appearances at events.
The new ad shows Prescott in a huddle with his Dallas Cowboys teammates, giving his instructions on the next play that only an an avid NFL American football fan would understand.
The voiceover in the ad then states: “What if things weren’t so complicated?” The team conference is then rewound and Prescott gives instructions to his teammates in a way that is far easier to understand.
The voiceover then adds: “At Blockchain.com, we take the complicated world of crypto and make it easier than ever to buy, sell or trade cryptocurrencies.”
