Ticket Fraud: Is Blockchain the Future of Ticketing?
Imagine you are trying to buy tickets to a sold-out show. Your only option is to buy on the secondary market. You bought the ticket for three times the face value and there are no guarantees the ticket you bought is actually a valid ticket. It’s now the night of the show and you get to the door, and your ticket doesn’t scan. This type of fraud (ticket scams) is the worst feeling for any music fan. You cannot get into the show, and even worse, you cannot get your money back from the scammer because they have disappeared. How does the music industry combat fraud at this point? The answer may actually come in the form of blockchain ticketing.
