#night $NIGHT Night Token (NIGHT) is the native cryptocurrency of the Midnight Network, a privacy-focused blockchain developed by Input Output Global (IOG, the team behind Cardano) and led by Charles Hoskinson. Launched in late 2025, it powers a fourth-generation layer-1 chain (Cardano partner chain) that uses zero-knowledge proofs for "rational privacy," protecting sensitive data and metadata in dApps without fully hiding transactions like traditional privacy coins.
