Digital tickets tied to digital identities that can only be transfered at market price. That's not a difficult smart contact to create.

Scalping is also selling tickets at market price - after first making sure the market price is a big multiple of what it was before scalpers got to work.

If I wasn't clear, the market price is just a variable that could be set. If they wanted they could set this at the initial sale price.
