What is the Midnight Network project?
The Midnight project is a Data-protection Blockchain. Its goal is not "absolute secrecy" that hides crimes, but "selective privacy." This means it allows developers and companies to create applications that protect sensitive user data (like legal contracts or financial data) while complying with regulatory laws.
Key features and technologies:
Privacy Protocol: It is primarily based on Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZK-proofs), which allow you to prove that certain information is correct without revealing the information itself.
Programming Language (Compact): The project launched a new programming language called Compact, which makes it easier for developers to write smart contracts that protect privacy even if they lack deep experience in complex encryption.
Currency (DUST): The main currency of the project is DUST, which is used to pay network fees and secure it.
Latest updates in 2026:
Transition to Mainnet: After a long period of testing (Devnet), the network has officially started receiving real projects in the fields of digital identity and decentralized finance (DeFi).
Integration with Cardano: Currently, there is a close connection between Midnight and Cardano as a Sidechain, giving ADA users immense privacy capabilities that did not exist before.
