It is believed that NFT tickets gained popularity after digital artist Beeple’s work was sold for more than $ 69 million. As per industry experts, NFTs ensure transparency to the ticketing industry with the help of blockchain. “These tickets offer validation of authenticity and by making ownership transparent,” Farheen Ahmad, CEO, founder, Interality, Web game engine, said. Furthermore, industry experts opined that NFT tickets are immune to the black marketing and multiple ownership.
