Decentralized identity (DID) streamlines public pool access via verifiable credentials (VCs) for membership, age verification, and health passes (e.g., "Swim Test Cleared"). Users prove eligibility using zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) without sharing personal data. Smart contracts automate gate entry and track usage for capacity management. Blockchain audit trails reduce ticket fraud, while self-sovereign identity (SSI) lets families manage passes across multiple pools, enhancing convenience and privacy.
