I want to buy an event ticket from you, but we're strangers. So I write a contract that releases the money to you once you send the ticket, or vice versa.

- cube00 1y agoThe ticket would have to be on the chain and you could then see just how much TicketMaster was making and we can't have that.
- scyclow 1y agoWell, the good news is that you could also program event ticketing logic with a blockchain and build a TicketMaster competitor. But now we're venturing outside simple examples :)

- scyclow 1y agoYeah, but the idea is that you can eliminate the middleman or implement some as hoc logic that the middleman doesn't support.
