The Midnight GlacierDrop is finally here, and in this episode, I break down everything you need to know about claiming your NIGHT tokens.
Midnight is a new privacy-focused blockchain built by IOG, featuring two key tokens: NIGHT (a utility and governance token) and DUST (a non-transferable shielded resource for private transactions).
This episode walks through the entire claim and redemption process, eligibility requirements, and why the staggered release of NIGHT is designed to prevent token dumping.
The GlacierDrop claim is open to holders of ADA, BTC, ETH, XRP, BNB, SOL, AVAX, and BAT based on a snapshot taken on June 11, 2025. ADA holders receive the largest allocation—50% of the eligible airdrop supply.
You’ll need to connect your wallet to the official GlacierDrop portal when it launches and claim within a 60-day window.
After that, unclaimed tokens move to the Scavenger Mine phase, followed by a long-term
Lost & Found period that spans four years. Redemption of NIGHT tokens follows a 360-day vesting schedule with unlocks every 90 days, starting randomly within the first 90 days post-claim.
Each redemption requires a transaction on Cardano, so be ready to cover network fees.
Also, Cardano SPOs can earn NIGHT by participating in Midnight’s block production. Delegators to those pools will benefit too—so be sure to speak with your SPO.
