Is Blockchain Technology coming to the NFL?

in sports •  7 years ago  (edited)

Blockchain technology is powerful, and I find myself constantly in thought on new applications that can help mankind and decentralized society. Someday soon I think we will see the ticket process to attend events be on a blockchain making the swap of seats and purchasing of event tickets more secure and with less fees. This should make the fan experience even better. Who will be first to do it?

I know there is one coin which is already working on ticket problem last year. I am sorry I forget the coin's name.

Huge let peev is paying huge FEES when buying tickets... such a turnoff I think you have a great idea 💡@broncnutz I always enjoy your videos and energy - keep it up!

Thank you brother Joe!

Hey mr OG broncnutz, good to see you once again.Everytime I wait for your interesting posts.Your talking style and expression is first class.

yeah brother i agree with you. its really really true word.

Right on @broncnutz. Great post. I've been contemplating with @liotap about this as well (being season ticket holder for the LA Kings and getting screwed selling threw Stubhub). So your proposal solves issues for both buyers and sellers! We need some smart computer nerds to work on this.

This would be such a good thing for everyone. Lol....I'm glad I'm not the only crazy person thinking about this idea. Thanks for checking out my video.

No you're not! Thank you and keep on vlogging.

LOVE this perspective! There are so many folks focused solely on cryptocurrency, but the way my mind is setup I had to get more involved with understanding Blockchain and Smart contracts. I totally agree this would be an awesome idea. I spoke with a lady who company wrote a smart contract on the blockchain for flight delays!!
So I am ALWAYS interested in the many uses of it and how it expands its reach far beyond cryptocurrency when it comes to potential uses etc. Thanks !

This would be awesome! I'm so sick of the high priced tickets, I'd love to be able to attend more games but the ticket prices are ridiculous! Start the blockchain @broncnutz !

OMG!!! This would be brilliant. I try to come down from Canada to see an NFL game every year and it can be a nightmare trying to find a good seat at a decent price through the ticket exchanges. Then, there is always the option to buy through “other” means like craigslist or similar self sale sites. This always comes with HUGE risk because you can’t be sure if the tickets are valid or they want cash before tickets etc... having this on the blockchain would fix all of this!! It would eliminate the grubby fingered middle man and you could apply better guarantees to what you are getting. I think you are onto something and we need to find a developer to make this happen!!! Damn, each team could even set it up using SMT’s!!! LOL. Can you imagine the price of Steem if the NFL did this. Or any blockchain that could convince the NFL to partner up on a deal like this. Moonshots galore!!!

I would be buying up SMT "Broncos Token" by the fist full.

To me the quickest use that could be instanteous is the lottery. National lottery where you can't fake ownership of winning ticket. Plus, the government could make it decentralized so everyone knows the money generated by the system goes to the need it supports.

That's a good idea for sure! Plus it makes it easy to collect and stay anonymous.

Your right. If it was done by the government they could even classify it as tax free. These are the type of projects that could eliminate corruption and benefit all who participates.

It will eventually come to the NFL. I read somewhere that a tech company wants to incorporate blockchain technology with wearable techs to improve athletes performance.

blockchain is going everywhere

I hope so! I feel like we're not even in the 1st quarter of the potential for blockchain. Love the idea.

This is a possibility, I see crypto currency come into everything, from the purchase of cars down to the purchase of cigarettes in stores. This is a good innovative, you should be the pioneer of this cause it’s your idea . Apps that allows one to buy tickets using crypto currency. Wow, crypto currency is the future my friend

Brilliant idea @broncnutz. They do the same thing in Seattle for the Seahawk’s games. Fees are outta control. Decentralize that shizz.

Im always so scarred to buy on the street but i don't wanna pay the cray fees! Blockchain!!!!

this would be a great leap to a more modern and comfortable process to attend a game, until you can pay for it with a cryptomoneda would be fabulous, an innovative idea that would be interesting to see how they apply it.

Just after our reply on the previous video, you come up with this idea. Starting to think about applications to better everyone on the blockchain. As you said, you're not a computer nerd, but you can always link up with one 😊

My mind has been on a spinner since I discovered Bitcoin in 2011

You must be kicking yourself that you didn't invest more in Bitcoin in 2011, however missed opportunity doesn't necessarily mean that the train has passed. Come up with a brilliant idea that can be implemented on the STEEM blockchain and you're onto something! 😉

very good idea to integrate the blockchain in the support and especially the tickets :)
the video is amazing :)

Thanks to all the master @broncnutz
for the amazing information contained in the video if they actually have the plucheen technology will distribute the football fields in this very excellent news and will raise the levels of digital currencies

Everything is going to be on the blockchain even if it's just because it's too hard to hack

I certainly hope so. I'm trying to look at ways it may be useful beyond ticketing. I think it'll enhance the game experience and is only a matter of time

Definitely think that there's a blockchain solution here @broncnutz ! The problem, as I understand it, is that too many unscrupulous people/bots buy up tix as soon as they are released to the public, with the sole intention of marking them up and re-selling later to create an artificial market. It's almost like there needs to be "proof of fandom" (instead of "proof of work" or "proof of stake") for anyone who wants to buy a ticket. In other words, you shouldn't be allowed to buy up Broncos tix (and re-sell later) if you're not a true Broncos fan.

Lol....well it's an awesome idea and I would love to see only broncos fans at the games!

NFL is money-making organization. Nothing else. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE THE GAME, but this thing they do with prices of tickets and charges later, that's outrageous!

Imagine giving salary to a player in Bitcoins haha that would be so amazing! I think blockchain would eliminate those leeches that get money for doing almost nothing...

Decentralize all! ALL! :D See ya tomorrow! ;)

Another interesting post.You are really a genious and great person.I am a big fan of yours.


Oh!!!! Great video my friend @broncnutz ....
The Blockchain is a revolution that will sweep the world
Because it is a new technology that appears and invades the world...
resteem:)

Future technology and financial freedom

Could see Cuban for Mavericks or Seahawks and the Microsoft money.

Paying for tokens in advance? Sounds like a time share for yearly events. Interesting idea. Problem is that stubhub and those companies charge the high fees not because of the overhead but because of the demand.

Well if you are heavily investing in a team or even as broad as a sport and the sport or team is doing well the team will usually raise the ticket prices. If you invested in the token the price rise does not affect you. If a team makes bad decisions or like the NFL and National Anthem last year, you could sell your future intrest in the token that buys the ticket or whatever. I got a feeling someone will do this someday. I don't know how to put it together to make it make sense for all parties involved but I'm sure there is a way.

Cuban should do this. He would raise his status huge

Blockchain is taking over everywhere. I will be happy to see it come to NFL

Very good idea.. I like sport.. I appreciate your block chain... I think it will enhance the game experience and is only a matter of time... best of luck......

Sir special video..I respact your all post

Only a matter of time

Good video post..........

I hope so! I feel like we're not even in the 1st quarter of the potential for blockchain. Love the idea.

I think it is an excellent Idea, but nevertheless people want to earn a quick buck, so they will find another way to rip you off in some way. Here in Holland the same, all those additional costs with tickets, it's (imho) robbery....

Blockchain can embrace a lot of things we do. NASA and others organization on diverse fields are adopting this technology.

There are projects destined to marketing, entertainment and even to help refugees of war. It's a matter of time sports do the same.

Progress makes its own way. It cannot be contained. And It eventually drag us all, making people adapting to new trends.

Really you are awesome sir. thanks for sharing

Always follow you sir.keep it up

Surely it may come hope it will come asap.

This is just like dream comming true i want to see block chain everywhere.

Yeah, it will definitely come to NFL, and it will revolutionize the NFZ ticketing system.
the is not far away, we are here and we will see it!

Great idea it is
you really a great hero

To me the quickest use that could be instantaneous is the lottery. National lottery where you can't fake ownership of winning ticket. Plus, the government could make it decentralized so everyone knows the money generated by the system goes to the need it supports.

Really great post @broncnutz..I love sport
Thanks for sharing

Great idea

I am happy with what I said, and I will be the one who does it, my dear I loved the idea

But is it possible over time that your idea succeeds more and more?

Wow.....very good [email protected] for sharing

Thanks for the support!

Lol me too. I never saw it show up before.

Thanks, and that's because I just started today!

nice cap

This is a good motive

Hopefully so and then it will be the epic time

Nice video post

Good post...
Excellent and right analysis......

I think that's possible.
There's this coin
NLC2
No Limit Coin
This coin has a platform where it powers the fantasy sports like football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and soccer.
It's been in the works a while, I know, but that's about all I know about that coin. I was gonna invest a bit into it a while ago, but then life hit me in the ass now I'm back online getting to it.

So, if someone thought of the fantasy sports sector, I think they already thought of the real football and how blockchain can empower it.

Season tickets also have issues.. like folks dont attend every game in the season.. so they may want to sell those out or exchange them for better seats for games that they do go to.

Hello friend, excellent publication, I liked it a lot. Count on me, I invite you to visit my profile and count on you too, Regards

Have a nice day!!

@broncnutz that's a great idea. I hope someone bites. I would invest in it. Events and tickets would be a great . I can see it working with the season tickets first.

@broncnutz

Only you are real

Great video
