can someone (for the sake of a thought experiment) steel man the argument for why this move is net positive for consumers?

imo easier to argue why it is good for $mother and iggy and bad for consumers so let’s challenge ourselves intellectually

Most of the people going think crypto is a scam or useless. Now a figure head of a music festival is showing (100K??) that not only is crypto real and useable (ticket payment) but also provides a discount. And a popular artist is putting their stamp on it. So, now the consumer saves 20% and more importantly is intro'd to real use case of crypto and won't be passed by when crypto becomes more popular. What was your first experience w/ crypto? I remember a few years ago I thought it was a scam and then I bought a ticket to breakaway fest...and then another concert later, etc. 🫡
