NFT’s use case in Arts, Music and Sports industry.
NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is essentially a digital representation of any kind of data such as music, painting and also expands to sports industry and is stored in a Blockchain in a form of distributed ledger. Soccer, Basket Ball are few of the sports that are largely into the NFT industry. NFT industry gained a lot of popularity in the past few years, by luring the millennials and GenZ’s into investing and taking part in the industry. As the cryptocurrency market plummeted in May, it had some staggering effects on the NFT market place as well. Though, NFT has a separate market place, both NFT and Cryptocurrency broadly fall under the same category of digital assets, which indefinitely mean that both of them are interconnected.
Since, NFT’s main stream use saw a hit in May, many top companies such as Binance, have gone ahead to use NFT in the ticketing business in partnership with a football club. Binance also highlighted that the use of NFT will revolutionize the ticketing industry to a new level as it will be potentially solving fake ticket problems and scalping problems.
In similarity to Binance, Ticketmaster also dived into the NFT space, planning to roll out NFT based merchandise for its customers. To support their idea, Ticketmaster went on to make an ad about the opening for a product manager of NFT ticketing tooling, who would potentially foresee that the objectives of the company are achieved.
