The problem TicketWave solves

Scams, Scalping, and Unfair Distribution: TicketWave tackles the trifecta of ticketing woes - scams that deceive fans, scalping that inflates prices, and unfair distribution practices that limit access to genuine fans, ensuring a more transparent and equitable ticketing environment.

Challenges we ran into

1. Technical Complexity with Solana: TicketWave acknowledges the challenges in coding on Solana, which is perceived as more complex than Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) platforms. Despite this, we leverage Solana for its superior speed, lower transaction costs, and scalability, committing to overcoming these hurdles through dedicated development efforts and continuous learning.

2. Front-end Development Expertise: Recognizing our team's initial lack of extensive experience in front-end development, TicketWave is actively investing in training and hiring skilled professionals. This approach ensures our platform not only operates smoothly on the backend but also delivers a seamless and intuitive user experience.

3. Resource Availability Compared to EVM: While resources and developer tools are currently more abundant for EVM platforms, TicketWave sees this gap as an opportunity for innovation. We're contributing to the Solana ecosystem by developing new resources and tools, and actively participating in community support networks to enhance the platform's accessibility and developer friendliness.
