Cash or Trade is a proof of concept. Concert-goers care more about their tribe then making profit. Cash or Trade users know that the scalpers, ticket master etc, are taking value from the artists and inflating the prices of tickets.

When’s the last time you’ve been to a show? Culture is deteriorated, people in the pit are entitled, and it’s unaffordable.

Nostr needs a P2P ticket exchange like cash or trade. Only face value. Only zaps. Let’s restore the vibe. Let’s build something!

I agree with the sentiment, but idk that it solves the problem.

You’re right, solving the root problem isn’t trivial. Neither is building a grass roots P2P monetary network.

Music is also a beautiful P2P exchange of energy. Ticket master, scalpers,etc will syphon off ever last bit of energy until the creativity is gone.

Best get all your tickets during presale and figure out plans later. Otherwise your not going. Even then, regular GA or Pit tickets are hard to come by.

Deadheads and people alike take pride in trading or transacting P2P and the Cash or Trade model is onto something. I like the idea that there’s reputation involved. If you’ve given tickets away, traded, or sold (face value) before then you’ll have a better chance getting tickets next time your in need. It’s about giving back more then your taking. That model is interesting when zaps are inside. It would be a cool way to interact with people going to the shows, help them get there with zaps, and see who’s looking for an extra ticket. Nothing better then grooving in the pit with people with similar energy.

I’m no technical whiz, but I know there’s far too many hands I the cookie jar.
