Midnight Network Launches Claim Phase of Glacier Drop: A New Standard in Fair Token Distribution

Midnight GlacierDrop claim phase: how to claim dollar night tokens

Midnight has started the GlacierDrop claim phase, opening a 60-day window for eligible wallets to claim dollar night (the network's governance token). Launched August 5, 2025, and based on a snapshot taken June 11, 2025, the drop targets wallets holding at least $100 USD worth of native tokens across eight ecosystems. The goal: a fair, multi-phase token distribution to promote decentralization, rational privacy, and long-term engagement.

Who is eligible to claim dollar night tokens

Eligibility is snapshot-based. Wallets on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, Binance Chain, Brave, Ripple, and Avalanche with $100+ native token holdings are included. To participate, connect a qualifying wallet at midnight.gd and follow the non-custodial claim process. The claim phase lasts 60 days, providing a broad participation window for eligible users.

How the GlacierDrop multi-phase token distribution works

• Claim phase: 60 days for snapshot-eligible wallets to claim allocations.
• Scavenger Mine: 30-day phase enabling on-chain computational work for unclaimed tokens.
• Lost and Found: a four-year window for late claims from original eligible wallets after mainnet launch.
• Redemption period: post-mainnet, tokens unlock through four randomized thaw events across 360 days to limit supply shocks.

Why GlacierDrop emphasizes rational privacy and decentralization

Midnight’s GlacierDrop pairs tokenomics with privacy-first design. The project leverages zero-knowledge proofs and selective disclosure to allow compliant, privacy-respecting smart contracts. Midnight TGE administers the initial distribution to align with the network's decentralization mandate, and the Midnight Foundation advances developer adoption and real-world use.

What to do now: claim steps and best practices

Visit midnight.gd, connect an eligible wallet, and complete the secure, non-custodial claim steps. Keep records of the snapshot date (June 11, 2025) and monitor mainnet launch updates to understand the scheduled redemption thaw events. If you miss the claim window, consider participating in Scavenger Mine or tracking Lost and Found for delayed recovery.

This episode breakdown covers GlacierDrop’s fairness-first approach to cross-chain airdrops, the technical and governance mechanisms protecting long-term stability, and practical steps for users to claim, participate, or recover tokens in later phases.
