Cardano's co-founder, Charles Hoskinson, revealed that a software limitation in Ledger hardware wallets is hindering some ADA holders from accessing the Midnight Foundation’s Glacier Drop, a two-month airdrop of NIGHT tokens across eight blockchain ecosystems. The problem arises from Ledger's handling of message signing, which restricts messages to 31 bytes, while the Glacier Drop payload is 251 bytes. Hoskinson noted that this issue was flagged in July, but Ledger has not provided a timeline for a fix. Midnight Foundation President Fahmi Syed confirmed the issue and emphasized the importance of security. Although Ledger has not yet resolved the problem, Cardano developers are implementing a workaround using a null transaction to include the Glacier Drop payload as metadata. The airdrop aims to distribute NIGHT tokens to eligible wallets from various chains, including Cardano and Bitcoin. Despite the challenges, user participation remains strong, with over 120 million tokens claimed shortly after the launch. Read more AI-generated news on: https://app.chaingpt.org/news
