1/ Amazing write-up from @abracarioca on @TechCrunch about blockchain ticketing! Def worth a read 🔥

As an update, I’m excited to share that @tixbase (formerly NFT-Tix) is now on track to process 25M+ tickets annually on our blockchain infrastructure.

@stephenhaney @HonzaTmn If anything I’d be the one tagging things in the canvas to milestones/tickets

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

@stephenhaney I like @HonzaTmn’s idea of collapsing the wave function, so the comments in Paper are the comments in Linear — with a url that links to something on the canvas

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

@stephenhaney @HonzaTmn Since projects have multiple tickets, (and I typically have context before designing) it’d be less useful for me to “click and jump over”

But if an agent reading linear could see each milestone tagged to a specific design in Paper, and use that as reference — that’s powerful

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

Great to be speaking with @JakeCvengros_ and @coopernicus01 about on-chain ticketing and how @tixbase is adding value to the sports and entertainment industry!

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

Tixbase is only as strong as our team. Super happy to have @jayks onboard.

As a web3 product competing for web2 marketshare, it can be easy to mistake the forest for the trees.

With Jays help, we’ve been able to look beyond the technology, and focus on the problem it solves.

[Jay Kurahashi-Sofue 🔺 @jayks]

Over a year ago, @tixbase was implementing a newly refined business strategy with fresh contracts from major ticket providers, including PASSO. That's when @EmilLjesnjanin approached me with his vision and asked if I could help bring Tixbase to market.

I joined as a strategic advisor in July 2024. Together, we identified a fundamental problem: ticketing platforms are broken. Legacy systems create unnecessary intermediaries that extract value from sellers and fans, lack seamless interoperability, and enable counterfeit tickets and bots that undermine the entire market.

Our solution leverages blockchain technology to streamline these inefficiencies. But how do you communicate this story and execute a marketing strategy that drives real business growth?

Using learnings from past career experience at @AVAX, @AirSwap, and more, we built a brand strategy around empowering event businesses to "Unleash Endless Opportunity." From there, we established multi-channel digital marketing capabilities, signed additional customers (announcements coming soon), and scaled operations significantly.

Excited to see what's next for Tixbase. Huge congratulations to the entire team!

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

We’re building the future of ticketing, powered by @circle’s wallets.

This is what web3 maturity looks like.

Real utility, without the complexity.

Grateful for the partnership with circle.

[tixbase @tixbase]

Tixbase is building the Shopify of ticketing, giving organizers the tools to launch storefronts, manage inventory, and offer seamless resale.

15/ The technology exists to fix this broken system. We just need platforms that prioritize transparency and verification over volume and fees. Until then, your best bet is buying directly from the venue when possible.

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

1/ STORY TIME: My friend’s concert experience turned into a nightmare thanks to our broken ticket resale system. Here’s what happened when he tried to see Nils Frahm in Brooklyn last week… 👇

[Chris Timson @_Chris_Timson]

14/ Imagine a world where when you buy a ticket, you ACTUALLY get that exact ticket immediately transferred to you. No uncertainty, no day-of-show surprises.
