Disclaimer: I am invested in GUTS — This competition aims to help show others the amazing potential for GUTS and how we the people can change an industry rife with ticket fraud!

As many may know I’m a big fan of GUTS, it’s one of those projects that reminds me of why I first got excited by cryptocurrencies and the blockchain in the first place. I love how anyone can understand and realise the outreaching power that GUTS and their GET protocol is capable of and the massive industry it could (and is) penetrating right now.

It’s pretty easy to see just how flawed the ticketing industry is as more and more people are taking to social media and venting about how large ticketing companies are ripping off die hard music and event fans, every single day. In fact if we take a look at Twitter using the hashtag (TicketTouting) there are some big articles and controversies over ticketing companies and their illicit methods of reselling tickets:

Now I know that cryptocurrencies and blockchain can be daunting for those who are new to the scene and change can be intimidating, especially when this technology always seems to be so up front and in your face. With GUTS though, I was immediately impressed with how they handle the user experience and it is so user friendly there is no need to even know about block chains or crypto to actually use their application. Buying a ticket on their system is stupidly easy and all the tech requirements are handled in the background!

The team behind GUTS have realised that there are a variety of people who buy tickets and not everyone is technologically minded and therefore all you need to buy a ticket is a smartphone, nothing else. If you’re interested in how all this technology works and how they aim to get rid of ticket touting, I encourage you to read my full article on GUTS here.
