What is Midnight
Midnight is a blockchain for applications that need data protection: it lets an app prove that a condition holds without revealing the data itself. IOG (Input Output), the company behind Cardano, announced the project in November 2022, and the Midnight Foundation supports its ecosystem. The NIGHT token was issued in December 2025, and the Midnight mainnet went live in March 2026.
Midnight runs as a Cardano partner chain: a separate layer 1 blockchain with a bridge to Cardano. It uses proof of stake, but for now blocks come from a limited set of federated node operators; Cardano stake pool operators are planned to join later. The economy rests on two units. NIGHT is a public token: its transfers are visible on chain, and it is used for governance and network security. Holding NIGHT generates DUST, a shielded resource that pays for transactions and smart contracts. DUST cannot be sent to another wallet and decays if unused. NIGHT exists natively on Midnight, as a Cardano native asset and on BNB Chain.
Developers write Midnight smart contracts in Compact, a TypeScript-based language, and privacy comes from zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs. The core idea is selective disclosure: an app can confirm that a user meets its rules without publishing their personal data. Unlike Monero and Zcash, which hide the coin transfers themselves, Midnight keeps NIGHT transfers public and protects application data. Some NIGHT was given away free through the Glacier Drop to holders of ADA, BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB, AVAX and BAT, then through the Scavenger Mine, open to anyone with a computer.
What it’s used for
- generating DUST to pay for transactions and smart contracts on Midnight
- taking part in network governance
- apps that verify user data without publishing it
Risks
- block production is currently limited to a small set of federated operators, so the network is still fairly centralized
- NIGHT from the Glacier Drop unlocks in equal quarterly installments over 450 days, and those releases add to market supply
- the network is young and relies on complex ZK cryptography, so a flaw in it or tighter rules on privacy technology would hurt the project
Contract addresses
Check the contract address before you buy or send: fake tokens copy the name and ticker, but their address is different.

What is the difference between NIGHT and DUST?
NIGHT is a public token you can buy, sell and transfer; it is used for governance and network security. DUST is generated automatically while you hold NIGHT and is spent on transaction fees. It cannot be sent to another wallet, and unused DUST gradually decays.
Is Midnight an anonymous coin like Monero?
No. NIGHT transfers are visible on chain like those of ordinary tokens. Midnight protects application data instead: ZK proofs let an app confirm a fact without exposing anything else, and data can be selectively shown to an auditor when needed.
