Building the Lisk Ticketing Project

Moosty team published a blog post about the Lisk Ticketing project as part of their participation in the Lisk Builders program.

Their project "Lisk Ticketing" represents a proof of concept blockchain application that represents an honest ticketing system. This project provides a new approach to selling tickets which includes proof of authenticity. The tickets will be linked to an account on the blockchain and therefore it would not be possible to switch them between users off-chain. Lisk Ticketing provides a solution to manage the process from the creation of the event until the event entry.
