I'm curious about this use case. It actually sounds pretty convenient, but it also sounds like a wet dream for scalpers since it makes it so easy to buy a bunch and resell for insane prices. On one hand, the price someone is willing to pay is the true value, so you could argue that the original seller wasn't charging enough. But on the other hand, if scalpers buy up all the supply then they're artificially increasing the price. I don't really know anything about economics, I'm just guessing.
In the traditional world of tickets, you could hypothetically prevent reselling by tying a ticket to a person's id (not that anybody does this, but you could). But in the nft world you described where you can resell your ticket, is there any solution to prevent scalping?
Ok am I taking crazy pills? I bought into the laser printer hype from reddit and got a Brother. And it's a good printer and all, but my toner runs out just as often as the inkjet did! And I don't print a lot, like maybe a page per week on average. Am I doing something wrong?
That's just a consequence of decentralization. That's why all names are qualified by the instance name as well. It's not perfect, but we'll, on Reddit if someone picked the sub name you wanted then you're sol and have to choose a different name, so there's pros and cons to each. Simply subscribe to the most active version of the community you're interested in and network effects will pick the winner.
