ZKP and the Dolphins Collaborate to Bring AI-Powered Intelligence to Modern Sport

ZKP has partnered with the Dolphins to bring the power of blockchain and privacy-first AI on field. The tie up introduces a new way of thinking about data in sport: using it to improve performance and connection without crossing privacy lines.

ZKP blends zero-knowledge proofs with decentralized computing, a combination that lets AI process and verify information securely. It means teams can now learn from their data without revealing the details that should stay private.

For the Dolphins, it’s a step toward using blockchain and AI to add real value for players and for fans. The club will work with ZKP to use AI-driven insights in training and fan engagement, showing how privacy-first technology can actually live inside the game. The partnership will explore three key areas:

• Performance & Health: Using AI to track performance and prevent injuries without exposing player data.

• Fan Experience: Building smarter, more personal experiences for fans without tracking who they are.

• Integrity & Trust: Verifying decisions and fraud checks through cryptographic proof, so results stay transparent and fair.

Jeff Wilck, Chief Blockchain Officer at ZKP, said: “At ZKP, we see sport as the ultimate proving ground for technology. Teaming up with the Dolphins is an opportunity to show how innovation can enhance both trust and performance, on and off the field.”

Terry Reader, Dolphins Chief Executive Officer, said: “Partnering with ZKP allows us to bring cutting-edge technology into the heart of sport. Together, we’ll explore how AI and privacy-first technologies can create new value for our players, fans, and the wider game.”

ZKP and the Dolphins will collaborate across multiple areas, including live digital activations and on-field integrations designed to help fans experience what happens when sport, blockchain, and AI intersect. ZKP’s branding will also appear at home games at Suncorp Stadium and across the Dolphins’ digital channels.
