[Coin World] The debut performance of the NIGHT Token on December 8 was quite impressive—its 24-hour volume surged to $4 billion, surpassing established coins like XRP and SOL. It is now available for trading on a well-known exchange and platforms like Bybit.
The project team is quite satisfied with this wave of launch, describing it as a “successful attempt,” and even directly confronted those who call Cardano a “ghost chain.” The Midnight network adopts a phased unlocking mechanism over 450 days, which is indeed a robust design approach.
What’s even more interesting is the upcoming plans. By early 2026, privacy-focused smart contracts are expected to go live, which will directly address the existing pain points of DeFi through private prediction markets and stablecoin functionalities. Once these features are fully implemented, the total locked value and the number of active users of NIGHT should see significant growth. How far this strategy can go will depend on the specific effects of the subsequent technical implementations.

4 billion volume on the first day suppressed XRP and SOL, this rhythm is quite extreme... However, the privacy contract won't be available until 2026, how many people will remember this project by then?

$4 billion daily volume? How many retail investors must be catching a falling knife, it feels a bit precarious.

4 billion volume? It's a joke, this number is outrageous.
If this wave of privacy DeFi really lands, Monero will be crying.
Smart contracts won't be launched until 2026, I might not be able to wait.
Cardano is spinning stories again, it's been played out.
450 days to unlock... a long-term Tied Up situation?

4 billion volume in one day, is it going to break? This start is indeed fierce, but we still need to see if it can hold up in the future.
NIGHT Token breaks through strongly, the privacy Decentralized Finance track is officially launched.
