- A 2025 survey revealed that Midnight experienced a significant increase in global participation.
- The survey also hinted that a good portion of the respondents had no prior experience.
The response for Midnight Foundation’s second annual community survey for 2025 is finally out, and 530 inputs were gathered from community members globally. According to the report, there was an explosion of international participation in Midnight, unlike the previous survey, which had heavily concentrated participation from Europe and North America.
Specifically, participation in Africa increased by 10 times. Responses from Asia quadrupled, and those from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Oceania nearly tripled. According to a report explaining this trend, this increase in participation underscores rational privacy as a solution to a universal problem.
The survey also demonstrates that Midnight has been an effective gateway for new users seeking to explore the blockchain and the privacy-enhancing technology industry. This is evident in the response, as 14% of the respondents admitted to having no prior experience. 37% of the respondents identified themselves as very experienced.
More About the User Behavior Towards Midnight
In the previous survey, there was a huge gap between the high value users placed on privacy and the usage of tools to protect it. The demand for privacy significantly improved in the recent survey, as the majority of the respondents appeared extremely concerned about their data. However, less than 12% appeared not concerned.
Participants were also asked which Decentralized Application (dApp) they engaged with in the last six months. Fascinatingly, Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) and Liquid Staking emerged as the most engaged. Also, there was some interest in gaming and social, showing the potential use cases for the project in situations where privacy-preserving smart contracts improve existing applications.
Another interesting discovery is that most of the users were very active across multiple blockchains and ecosystems. Out of this, Cardano, Bitcoin, and the Ethereum ecosystem had the most engagement. According to the report, Midnight was designed to succeed when it increases the utility of other blockchains. When this happens, a multiplier effect is reported to be created from the collaboration instead of “forcing zero-sum competition.”
The global expansion of Midnight is also reported to fulfill a major objective of granting access to everyone. This year, the team plans to release the second part of the series with more focus on how results compare across ecosystems and chains. Not just that. This would also look at the attitude towards privacy and the most promising use cases, coupled with insights into the Midnight developer community.
