🚨 Glacier Drop Redemptions Temporarily Suspended Following reports of a security incident affecting a subset of Cardano wallets associated with @secondfiapp, we have made the decision to temporarily suspend Glacier Drop redemptions as a precautionary measure to help protect our community. While the issue does not relate to @midnightntwrk infrastructure, products, or services, some members of our community may use affected wallets or services.  We recognize this decision will impact users who are not affected by the underlying incident, however we believe temporarily pausing all redemptions until further safeguards are implemented is the best way to protect our community at this time. We are actively monitoring the situation and will restore Glacier Drop redemptions as soon as it is appropriate to do so. If you use SecondFi, we encourage you to review official guidance from the SecondFi team and take any recommended steps to secure your assets. The safety and security of our community remain our highest priority. Please remain vigilant: 👉 Midnight will never contact you privately to request sensitive information, ask for wallet access, or instruct you to transfer funds. 👉 Never share your seed phrase, recovery phrase, or private keys. 👉 Be wary of unsolicited messages, support offers, or suspicious links. 👉 Verify information through official channels before taking action. We will share more updates as they become available. midnight.network/blog/glacier-d…

Glacier Drop Redemptions Update: Glacier Drop redemptions will resume today at 17:00 UTC. Following our recent announcement to pause Glacier Drop redemptions due to a security incident affecting a subset of Cardano wallets associated with @secondfiapp, we have made the decision to reopen the Redemption portal at 17:00 UTC today. The pause was introduced as a temporary precaution while the potential impact of the incident was assessed. We are now satisfied there is no risk to the redemption infrastructure or systems. This pause has not impacted the original Redemption schedule. Any NIGHT that thawed during the suspension period is now redeemable. The safety and security of our community remain our highest priorities. If you used or are currently using a SecondFi wallet, we encourage you to follow official guidance from the SecondFi team and ensure you have taken any recommended steps to secure your assets. We appreciate the community’s patience and understanding while this review took place. midnight.network/blog/glacier-d…

@midnightfdn I love this

The future of digital currency regulation is being written now. The Midnight Foundation submitted formal recommendations to U.S. regulators, showing how zero-knowledge proofs and selective disclosure can strengthen compliance without sacrificing financial privacy. 🔗 Read the full response: midnight.network/blog/midnight-…

2/ Looking forward to continuing the discussion today at @zerohashx's Onchain Brokerage Summit here in NYC. I'll be joining leaders from @AvaLabs, @SolanaFndn, @StellarOrg, and Zerohash to explore how institutions are navigating an increasingly fragmented onchain ecosystem. The conversation has moved beyond chain tribalism. Today's challenge is building infrastructure that delivers interoperability, predictable costs, privacy, and compliance, without compromise. If you're interested, don't miss the livestream.

ICYMI: What does privacy-first infrastructure look like for financial institutions? @F_ZK_Now joined @FINTECHTVglobal to discuss Monument Bank, tokenized deposits, selective disclosure, and why privacy is becoming a core requirement for enterprise blockchain adoption. Watch the full segment 👇

From new developer tooling to ecosystem growth, here's a recap of what happened across Midnight in June: 🛠️ 1,000+ repositories tracked by @ElectricCapital highlight substantial growth in Midnight developer activity 💻 Midnight Expert launches with 16 Claude Code plugins to automate Compact smart contract creation 💫 Night Sky launched, a new accelerator program for founders 🤝 @VIA_Labs deploys its cross-chain testnet bridge Read the full recap: midnight.network/blog/state-of-…

Could Midnight change clinical trial recruitment? @F_ZK_Now explains how @MidnightFDN can prove eligibility without exposing private medical data, letting blind requests reach the right patients before they choose what to disclose. Privacy could unlock faster research.

@RealAllinCrypto @F_ZK_Now 🔥🔥

Crypto was built on transparency. But what happens when transparency becomes surveillance? Join us tomorrow at 6:30pm UK time with @F_ZK_Now President of @MidnightFDN to discuss AI, wallet privacy, blockchain surveillance and why privacy may be Web3’s missing layer.

Most documentation dies from neglect. In the last 6 months, the @MidnightNtwrk DevRel team treated docs like a product: 👉 1,900+ commits 👉 447 merged PRs 👉 64 contributors 👉 Hundreds of thousands of lines rewritten, removed, or improved The result is a faster, cleaner, and more reliable experience for developers building on Midnight.

Midnight Foundation President Fahmi Syed on where Zcash and Monero fall short for real world adoption: "Regulators and regulated counterparties get concerned that they don't know where the source of funds are coming from." As for Midnight; "Think of it like Zcash or Monero with smart contracts and programmable disclosures." 👇 @F_ZK_Now @Midnightntwrk @MidnightFDN

@protofire @MidnightNtwrk 🤝 so critical. Welcome to the @MidnightNtwrk ecosystem

Privacy that survives production. Protofire is now @MidnightNtwrk's engineering partner, building the apps, cryptographic services, and tooling that turn programmable data protection with selective disclosure into something teams can actually deploy.

Midnight 🤝 @protofire Programmable privacy only matters if developers can actually build with it. 🛠️ Together with Protofire, we're helping accelerate the tools, applications, and infrastructure that bring privacy-preserving solutions into production and meet the security and operational requirements of enterprises and institutions.

Midnight 🤝 Buysell Standards The Midnight Foundation is partnering with Buysell Standards, operator of the security token platform PIECE, to explore a privacy-preserving pathway for Korean tokenized assets to move from local issuance to global distribution. Together, the teams will test the full lifecycle of issuing and managing tokenized assets on @MidnightNtwrk, using selective disclosure to protect sensitive data while meeting regulatory requirements.

How does the partnership between Cardano and Midnight drive ecosystem success? @F_ZK_Now explains: According to Fahmi Syed, President of Midnight Foundation, the collaboration is in an initial phase where various components have been brought together to provide the network with opportunities for growth. As he put it: "The real work starts with the ecosystem to inject liquidity, to create programs and applications that again shows people the benefits of working with these two ecosystems: both the Cardano ecosystem and Midnight."
