A tremendous opportunity is emerging in the cryptocurrency market as the Midnight airdrop kicks into high gear, presenting billions of dollars worth of tokens to eligible XRP and crypto enthusiasts. With just over a month remaining, industry experts caution that many individuals could potentially miss out on one of the largest token distributions in history.
Under 40 Days Remaining To Claim The Midnight Airdrop
The ongoing Midnight airdrop is rapidly becoming one of the hottest subjects in the crypto scene, with billions potentially going unclaimed. As noted by Big Pey, a content creator in the Cardano community, holders of XRP, Solana (SOL), ADA, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Avalanche (AVAX), and Brave tokens might be missing a unique chance.

The airdrop was launched on August 5, 2025 and has less than 40 days left before the claim window closes. Big Pey commended the tokenomics of Midnight’s $NIGHT token, calling it “brilliant.” He stated that the most innovative aspect is that $NIGHT creates “DUST,” rewarding users for interacting with the blockchain rather than compelling them to use their existing assets for transactions. This mechanism promotes a cycle where network engagement becomes financially beneficial, unlike many current blockchain operations.
Users in the community responding to Big Pey’s message expressed concerns about the airdrop’s accessibility. One individual asked about the status of unclaimed tokens, to which Big Pey clarified that they will be redistributed later in a scavenger hunt phase. Another participant pointed out the difficulty of claiming tokens via hardware wallets like Trezor. In response, the Cardano content creator reassured users that Trezor has committed to launching support during the 60-day airdrop claim period, allowing hardware wallet owners to participate without sacrificing security.
Understanding The Midnight Airdrop
The Midnight airdrop stands out not only for its scale but also for its significance. Midnight is a partner chain that operates on Cardano, utilizing zero-knowledge proofs to ensure privacy and secure data management for Decentralized Applications (dApps).

The $NIGHT tokens are intended to function as the governance and ownership layer within the Midnight framework. Moreover, the network introduces $DUST, a privacy-centric utility that further encourages usage while enhancing the project’s focus on secure, private transactions.
Unlike many token launches that depend on presale events, Midnight aims to distribute 100% of its supply to qualified users across eight major blockchains. The airdrop will span 60 days, with half of the tokens designated for ADA holders and the other half distributed among seven cryptocurrencies.
More than 33 million wallets are eligible to receive tokens. Holders who do not claim immediately will still have four years to secure their allocation, but the initial phase is crucial for early participation. Investors beyond the eight chains are not excluded, as they can take part in a scavenger hunt to earn a portion of unclaimed tokens later.
