During the Paris Blockchain Week 2025, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, announced that the upcoming Midnight airdrop will benefit 37 million users across multiple blockchain networks. This significant airdrop aligns with the launch of Midnight, a privacy-focused blockchain that aims to securely manage sensitive information while maintaining compliance with regulations. Hoskinson referred to this development as the most important economic event in the history of the Cardano ecosystem.
The Midnight Network, developed by the Cardano team, is focused on providing secure handling of user information. Notably, the airdrop is set to include holders of prominent cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH, ADA, XRP, SOL, marking its wide-reaching eligibility. Although a detailed timeline for the airdrop and the full allocation specifics remain undisclosed, it promises an exciting opportunity for users within the network.
Midnight will introduce two new tokens: NIGHT, the native governance token boasting a limited supply, and DUST, a non-transferrable token for privacy-focused transactions. Given Cardano’s reputation, interest in NIGHT is expected to be notably high, as investors are optimistic about its performance at launch.
However, critical details pertaining to the NIGHT token’s launch price and its tokenomics are currently awaited, which complicates any projections about its price at launch. Investors keen to assess potential performance will need to monitor further announcements concerning the token’s details and airdrop allocation.
