What your suggesting is worse than just having a person at the door check that the name on the ticket matches the name on the person’s ID. Doing it as an NFT gives absolutely no benefits.
The venue could operate the turnstile much cheaper by keeping the ticket information in their own database. It’s far cheaper to do it that way. The NFTs give literally no benefit to anyone.
If you continue to ignore the benefits, then yes it will seem like there aren’t any. You’re being willfully ignorant at this point.
It’s far cheaper to do it that way.
It’s cheaper to maintain your own codebase, hire admins to maintain the infrastructure, hire security experts to maintain the security of the infrastructure, and to take on all the risk of potential data breach and fraud on your own? You live in a fantasy world.
Every professional venue already does this. You can just go on the internet and buy the ticket for the seat. All of the work that you think is fantastical is ordinary and standard.
Adding a blockchain to the end of that process makes it more expensive, and offers no benefits to the venue or the ticket buyers.
Not understanding how an industry works is not a compelling argument for NFTs.
Most venues currently outsource this to ticketmaster which encourages ticket resale. Also, just because a place is already doing it doesn’t mean it’s the cheapest or even most effective way of doing something.
Many venues self host. Many venues have their own box office that handles ticket sales.
Resale from ticketmaster happens because of ticketmaster’s policies. NFTs are not the solution. If ticketmaster benefits from scalping, they will continue to have scalping regardless of the underlying technology. Blockchain is a solution in search of a problem.
It is what’s being discussed. NFTs add nothing.
