We get it. Advertising is hard. Consumers are on pins and needles while binging the lastest season of The Handmaid’s Tale and we are interrupting it to tell them they should really consider switching laundry detergent. As they gleefuly wait for the ‘skip ad’ button to appear, it becomes clear that advertising has to be good and it has to be fast. After the death of Vine and the mad rush to 3-second ads, we are now seeing a flurry of renewed pitches for 6-second ads.

In that moment he is an unfit driver, quickly morphing into your nemesis and all that is wrong with the world.

While desktop and mobile web monetization has already been thoroughly disrupted by header bidding, mobile apps haven’t gotten there just yet. Even though it seems at times like everyone from the world’s biggest ad platforms down to tiny ad networks was talking about in-app header bidding in 2018, actual adoption of unified auctions among mobile publishers, app developers and their programmatic demand sources was low.
