Decentralized identity can improve botanical garden access by enabling self-sovereign digital tickets linked to verifiable credentials (VCs). Visitors control data via decentralized identifiers (DIDs), reducing ticket fraud and long queues. Membership VCs offer discounts or fast-track entry, while IoT-linked wristbands (tied to DIDs) automate exhibit access or guided tour participation. Zero-knowledge proofs verify age for child discounts without exposing birthdates, enhancing privacy and streamlining the visitor experience.
