I hope Tickmaster gets devoured by Blockchain tech
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I was reminded today that Ticketmaster desperately needs to go the way of Blockbuster. I bought a seat ticket for a Tool concert next year, $74. With fees it came to $97. Ridiculous considering I don’t even receive a physical ticket anymore. </p> <p>Blockchain, once mainstream and widespread, will break the stranglehold middlemen hold over venues. Imagine direct selling NFTs to fans and locking in price so scalping is practically non-existent. And the artist would get a kickback of secondary sales. Maybe lock in transferring the ticket more than once. </p> <p>There’s so many possibilities I’m sure these issues will get solved someday soon. This is why crypto is so exciting. The possibilities are endless.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/ethanwc"> /u/ethanwc </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/rf4hbn/i_hope_tickmaster_gets_devoured_by_blockchain_tech/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/rf4hbn/i_hope_tickmaster_gets_devoured_by_blockchain_tech/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
