“…“On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.” Since the publication of this famous cartoon by Peter Steiner ( 1993 ), the Internet has evolved and has revolutionized our lives. Still, existing solutions for digital identity verification are not satisfactory for both users and service providers (Bonneau et al, 2012 ; Maler & Reed, 2008 ; Sedlmeir et al, 2021 ; Smith & McKeen, 2011 ). The absence of a secure and reliable identity layer on the Internet affects the ticketing industry in particular.…”

“…Recently, a new paradigm, self-sovereign identity (SSI), for end-users’ digital identity management, has gained considerable momentum, likely also owing to blockchain technology’s popularity. Although blockchain technology is not strictly needed for SSI, several SSI projects use a blockchain as a publicly shared and immutable registry for trusted organizations (Sedlmeir et al, 2021 ). In the case of SSI, users store their identity-related documents in so-called digital wallet apps on their smartphones (Avellaneda et al, 2019 ).…”

“…In the case of SSI, users store their identity-related documents in so-called digital wallet apps on their smartphones (Avellaneda et al, 2019 ). Different credentials can be stored and presented in combination through these identity wallets, for instance, a digital ID card, a digital vaccination certificate, and a digital ticket (Sedlmeir et al, 2021 ).…”

“…Such an eID also plays a key role for SSI, since it is one of the foundational digital documents issued by a highly trusted institution. However, unlike existing eID approaches, SSI’s scope extends beyond a single and highly regulated identity document and seeks to use open standards to enable an ecosystem of various credential types that can be managed together in one of many interoperable digital wallets (Sedlmeir et al, 2021 ). Several governmental and corporate initiatives are already exploring SSI’s benefits, and undertakings are under way to combine SSI with existing trust infrastructures such as the electronic Identification, Authentication and Trust Services (eIDAS) regulation (Ehrlich et al, 2021 ; European Commission, 2019 ).…”

Ticket fraud and ticket scalping activities often cause high costs as well as trust concerns for fans buying event tickets, especially in the secondary ticketing market. To address these issues, several publications and projects have proposed using blockchain technology to enable digital trust and ticket verifiability and thus to improve event ticketing systems. However, these approaches exhibit considerable privacy challenges and fall short concerning reliable, efficient visitor identification, which is necessary for controlling secondary market transactions. We demonstrate how a novel paradigm for end-user digital identity management, called self-sovereign identity (SSI), can be utilized to gain secondary market control. To do so, we follow a rigorous design science research approach to build and evaluate an SSI-based event ticketing framework. Our findings demonstrate that SSI-based event ticketing can enable efficient secondary market control by facilitating a practical implementation of the centralized exchange model. To generalize our results, we derive design principles for the efficient, reliable, and privacy-oriented ticket and identity verification and the use of revocation registries.

This study examined uniting public organization, transparency, and accountability theories for a holistic understanding of digital government service implementation in Indonesia. This study used a survey data collection method with 424 respondents for employees in four local governments. Questionnaires were generated using a Likert scale. Structural equation modeling‐partial least squares was used to assess the validity and reliability of the data and to test hypotheses and regression models. Following the testing of hypotheses and regression analysis, this study found that variables of employee skills, leadership, regulation, infrastructure, information and communication technology, transparency, and accountability had a positive and significant effect on the variable of digital government service implementation with p‐values of 0.034, 0.025, 0.014, 0.031, 0.009, 0.005, and 0.010, respectively. In contrast, variables of budgeting and bureaucratic structure do not positively and significantly impact the variable of digital government service implementation with p‐values of 0.210 and 0.311, respectively. The influence of the independent variables on the dependent variable was strong (R‐square = 0.834). The limitations and implications of these findings are discussed in the conclusion.
