If I can sell a ticket to a specific person, then I can also set my own price for that ticket.
The platform doesn't need to support it, not do the rules and laws.
It's very straightforward: The buyer either meets my terms or there is no sale.
Then skip the resale to specific persons, ask for each participant's name at purchase time like for airplane tickets. Problem solved.

Awesome. Let's just add the frictions of flying to the concert-going experience.
That's a pretty good way to eliminate scalping: Just make it such a pain in the ass to attend that the seats never sell out to begin with.
Other than being terrible, this sounds like a great idea!
