Ep. 165 DeFi vs. Ticketmaster, The War for Live Events
Tuesday, 3 March, 2026

In this episode of Crypto Mavericks, we break down how TIX and KYD Labs are using Solana DeFi to challenge the legacy ticketing model dominated by companies like Ticketmaster. Instead of locking venues into long-term, capital-draining contracts, TIX gives venues access to on-chain liquidity pools, turning ticket revenue into programmable real-world assets.We explore why NFT ticketing failed, how verified on-chain tickets protect fans from fraud and predatory resale, and how Solana’s speed and low fees make real-world DeFi applications like this possible. From independent venues to major live event spaces, this conversation highlights how blockchain isn’t just about speculation, it’s about restructuring entire industries.If DeFi is going to disrupt the real world, ticketing might be one of the first places it actually sticks.Social Media: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheCryptoMavericks Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheCryptoMavs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TheCryptoMavericks TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@TheCryptoMavericks Guest Links:https://kydlabs.com/https://www.tix.xyz/**THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL OR LEGAL ADVICE**© Copyright 2025 Boardwalk Flock, LLC All Rights Reserved ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Podcast Music:Vinyl Moonlight by Pop VillainsLicense #4470913Licensed from PremiumBeat.com▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
