Abstract
We propose a hybrid system to utilize non-fungible tokens for event ticketing. By adding an intermediate database, we enjoy blockchain benefits such as fraud prevention and higher transparency over the secondary market while ensuring reasonable redemption speed. Furthermore, the additional step after ticket redemption is to verify through the smart contract whether the ticket holder's signature is included, preventing event organizers from marking the ticket as used without the holder's consent.
