Oh damn, that's pretty big. I wonder if this can put a hinder on ticket scalping. I sure hope so

I believe that was the main motivation. Imagine if they had implemented this before Taylor Swift and Beyoncé had announced their tours!
Is "scalping" a problem anymore though? Like, who buys paper tickets out front an arena anyways and trusts them lol. StubHub is sending 1099s to anyone who makes over $700 or so now as well which has definitely deterred me from ever being a season ticket holder again. Ticketmaster tickets into apple wallet felt like NFTs anyways as it was. Now, token-gated options a la having a Chase debit card or AMEX credit card would be nothing REALLY new, just further rewarding the existing community(ies) which is awesome for those supporters from another realm as long as the benefits are better than just banking with someone.
