Yesterday, Jochem Myjer, Holland’s leading comedian took to his social channels (>2 Million followers) to declare that since working with GUTS Tickets (the initial ticketing company to make use of GET Protocol (GET)), none of his tickets have been resold for profits by scalpers.Here’s the tweet: https://twitter.com/jochemmyjer/status/1088481415149379584Rough translation: 'Since I've sold my tickets through GUTS Tickets, not a single one of my tickets is being resold for a profit by touts. That makes me extremely happy! It took some doing to get it done, but we've succeeded. Fuck the frauds!'Jochem is currently in the midst of a 36-show tour in the prestigious Royal Theater CarrĂ© in Amsterdam. For this tour he is exclusively using GUTS Tickets, to ensure his fans are protected from frauds en ticket scalpers.GUTS Tickets sells their tickets through the Ethereum based GET Protocol, which provides digitally self-aware ‘smart tickets’. The ownership- and state changes of these tickets are registered on the Ethereum blockchain.This protocol is fueled by the GET token. In short, every ticket sold requires GET to be bought back from the open market by the Event Organizer.Summarized this means: The more tickets sold using the protocol, the higher the demand for the GET token on the open market.Sources:Explainer video of GET Protocol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjXSeElvbssGET Protocol website:https://get-protocol.io
