If you’ve been holding Cardano (ADA), your patience might finally pay off — and not just in price gains. A new airdrop event by Midnight, a privacy-focused blockchain connected to Cardano, is now live, offering free NIGHT tokens to eligible ADA holders.
And no, it’s not just a few tokens — the numbers are quite impressive.
So, here’s how to claim your FREE Night token.
Midnight is a fully integrated partner chain of Cardano that utilizes Cardano’s Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism for its security and governance. What sets it apart is its strong multichain strategy, targeting not only Cardano users but also holders on Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, and more.
However, the ongoing buzz is mostly around the “Glacier Drop”, the first phase of Midnight’s token distribution plan.
According to the project’s whitepaper, 12 billion NIGHT tokens—half of the entire supply—will be given away to eligible users. And the largest beneficiary of this ecosystem will be the Cardano wallet holders.
What’s exciting is that Midnight isn’t some side project—it’s deeply tied into Cardano’s architecture. The NIGHT token is minted directly on Cardano. Stake pool operators (SPOs) can even earn NIGHT without giving up ADA rewards.
With strong tokenomics, real utility, and multichain support, Midnight might be the boost Cardano needs to reclaim its spotlight in the crypto space.
To be eligible for the Midnight airdrop, you must have held at least $100 worth of ADA in a Cardano wallet at the time of a previously taken snapshot.
The claiming process is simple and gas-free, just sign with your wallet and provide a clean Cardano address.
There’s no KYC or cost involved.
However, each person’s airdrop amount depends on how much ADA they held compared to others. For example, if you held 5,000 ADA, and the total eligible pool was 1.5 billion ADA, you’d receive around 40,000 NIGHT tokens.
Now here’s where it gets interesting. If NIGHT reaches a $500 million market cap, each token could be worth around $0.0208, which means your free 40,000 NIGHT tokens could be worth over $800.
There is a 60-day window to claim your tokens, and they won’t be usable right away.
Meanwhile, claimed tokens will first be locked and will “thaw” gradually during the Redemption period, allowing holders to access them over time.
