Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson confirmed at Consensus Hong Kong on February 11, 2026 that Midnight — Cardano's zero-knowledge privacy partner chain — will launch its mainnet in the final week of March 2026, with ASCII.co.uk pinpointing March 26 as the specific launch date. Midnight uses ZK-SNARKs for selective disclosure, a three-tier access model (public, auditor, regulatory god-mode), and separates data from computation, keeping personal and business data off-chain while recording only ZK proofs on-chain. The Midnight City Simulation stress test opened to the public on February 26. Google and Telegram are confirmed infrastructure partners. NIGHT is the native token. LayerZero cross-chain integration was announced simultaneously. ADA dropped 80% from its 2025 highs ahead of the launch. Ethers News provides the most complete analysis of Midnight's technology, architecture, partners, and market implications.
