🔥🔥$ADA Charles Hoskinson Unveils Details of Midnight Airdrop — 37 Million Wallets to Receive NIGHT and DUST Tokens

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, has officially announced the long-awaited airdrop for the Midnight sidechain project. This ambitious event will span eight major blockchains and target over 37 million wallets, making it one of the most inclusive airdrops in crypto history. True to Cardano’s vision of decentralization, this distribution completely excludes venture capital firms and early-stage institutional investors. As Hoskinson bluntly put it, “No time for Ponzi schemes.”

Participants will receive two distinct tokens: governance token NIGHT and utility token DUST. NIGHT will grant holders voting rights on critical protocol upgrades and ecosystem decisions, while DUST will serve as the primary transactional asset within the Midnight network. This dual-token model aims to balance governance power with real-world utility.

In a revolutionary cross-chain integration, developers building on Midnight will pay network fees in their native blockchain assets. Ethereum developers will use ETH, Solana developers will pay in SOL, and Bitcoin ecosystem participants will transact using BTC. This model lowers entry barriers for developers and encourages broader adoption across ecosystems.

Validators from any participating blockchain can support the Midnight network and earn rewards, regardless of their original chain affiliation. This cross-chain validator model promotes collaborative security and unlocks new opportunities for passive income.

Hoskinson emphasized that this airdrop is exclusively for retail users, with no allocation reserved for VCs. His message is clear: Midnight is about empowering the crypto community, not enriching early-stage financial elites.

Is this the start of a new era in fair token distribution and true cross-chain collaboration? Or just another hyped experiment in the race for blockchain dominance?#AMAGE
