Superstar Jay Chou returns to Taiwan to hold a concert after 7 years, with many of his fans experiencing both joy and disappointment while trying to get tickets. However, holders of the NFT PhantaBear are not only disappointed but also angry, as the promised 'Jay Chou concert' tickets were not fulfilled. But is this really the case?

According to statistics, over 890,000 people flooded the ticketing system at that time, but only a few chosen ones managed to snag tickets. After the tickets sold out, many were resold on major trading platforms at exorbitant prices, making the chance of buying them at the original price almost zero. However, it seems that there are pathways to obtain tickets beyond just purchasing. According to community rumors, buying the NFT 'PhantaBear' created by Jay Chou's friend Liu Genghong also has a chance to win concert tickets, but is this really true? PhantaBear holders: Where are the promised tickets? In 2022, while NFTs were still booming, the PhantaBear community was as vibrant as other NFT blue-chip communities. At that time, community administrators would hold periodic lottery events for NFT holders, with prizes including 'Jay Chou Carnival concert tickets.' Many investors purchased PhantaBear specifically for the chance to win tickets to Jay Chou's concert. However, after the NFT craze faded, the PhantaBear community collapsed overnight, with all the previously grand visions and benefits disappearing, leaving only a few holders waiting for a miracle. Recently, as Jay Chou announced a 4-day concert at the Taipei Arena, holders flocked to the community asking, 'Where are the concert tickets?', 'Are there concert tickets this time?', 'Do the tickets from the ranking still count?', and some holders noted that the officials would not respond here, suggesting everyone go to other community platforms to voice their grievances: Everyone, go leave a message on their community platform; it's faster. They won't see us here or pay attention to us, so making a scene elsewhere might give us a better chance. However, until the concert ticket sales ended, the officials never responded. However, according to a survey by Dongqu, the PhantaBear roadmap clearly states that NFT holders can obtain passes for virtual concerts, but whether there is a guarantee for physical concert tickets, Dongqu could not find any relevant substantial wording. Additionally, Jay Chou's record label JVR Music also issued a statement in 2022, clarifying that the NFT was not launched by Jay Chou himself, meaning he cannot endorse it. The night before the concert, PhantaBear skyrocketed by 120%. Notably, just before the concert ticket sales, the floor price of PhantaBear surged from 0.04 ETH to 0.088 ETH, a rise of 120%. I speculate that some investors are betting that the PhantaBear officials would release concert ticket-related benefits for holders. However, after the ticket sales ended, the price of PhantaBear dropped back to 0.05 ETH, with the last purchase record being one day ago.
