查尔斯·霍斯金森（Charles Hoskinson）宣布以新的以隐私为中心的Sidechain宣布广泛的代币发行活动

该倡议是冰川下降，是午夜更广泛的发布策略的一部分，这是Cardano生态系统正在开发的新的以隐私为中心的Sidechain。

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has announced the “Glacier Drop” airdrop for the Midnight privacy sidechain, distributing NIGHT and DUST tokens to 37 million users across eight major blockchains, excluding VCs. He introduced a "collaborative economics" model. Midnight's mainnet is set to launch by the end of 2025.

Cardano的创始人查尔斯·霍斯金森（Charles Hoskinson）宣布了午夜隐私的Sidechain的“冰川掉落”空调，在八个主要区块链中向3700万用户分发了夜晚，不包括VCS。他引入了“协作经济学”模型。午夜的主网将在2025年底之前推出。

Retail-Only Distribution: No Allocation to VCs or Insiders

仅零售分销：没有分配给VC或内部人士

In a departure from typical token launches, Hoskinson noted that Midnight’s airdrop will not include any allocations for venture capital firms or early investors. The tokens will be distributed exclusively to retail users on participating networks, which he described as a deliberate strategy to promote fairness and transparency.

霍斯金森（Hoskinson）偏离了典型的代币发布会，指出午夜的Airdrop将不包括对风险投资公司或早期投资者的任何分配。代币将专门分发给参与网络的零售用户，他将其描述为促进公平和透明度的故意策略。

According to Hoskinson, avoiding institutional pre-sales is a way to challenge the common practice of favoring select insiders, which he referred to as “VC Ponzi” models. The airdropped tokens will be immediately available to recipients, who may choose to hold, sell, or discard them without restrictions.

根据霍斯金森的说法，避免机构预售是一种挑战共同做法的一种偏爱精选内部人士的方式，他称之为“ VC庞氏骗局”模型。空调的令牌将立即适用于可能选择持有，出售或丢弃的接收者，而无需限制。

Expanding Across Eight Major Blockchains

跨八个主要区块链扩展

The Glacier Drop will span eight networks: Cardano, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Bitcoin, BNB Chain, XRP Ledger, and the Basic Attention Token ecosystem.

冰川滴将跨越八个网络：Cardano，以太坊，Solana，Avalanche，Bitcoin，BNB链，XRP Ledger和基本关注标记生态系统。

Involving such a wide range of platforms is part of Hoskinson’s broader vision to foster greater cooperation across crypto communities, who he observed have historically operated in silos. He noted that the constant competition between blockchain projects undermines the industry’s long-term growth.

涉及如此广泛的平台是霍斯金森（Hoskinson）更广泛的愿景的一部分，以促进整个加密货币社区的更大合作，他观察到，他一直在孤岛中运作。他指出，区块链项目之间的持续竞争破坏了该行业的长期增长。

Calls for Unity Echoed by Other Industry Leaders

其他行业领导人呼吁统一的呼吁

Garlinghouse, for instance, has proposed a multi-asset U.S. crypto reserve that does not rely solely on Bitcoin. He argued that this would better reflect the diversity and potential of the broader crypto landscape. Deaton, a longtime XRP supporter, has also advocated for ending infighting within the industry in favour of united advocacy on regulatory and policy matters.

例如，加林豪斯（Garlinghouse）提出了一个多资产的美国加密储备，该储备金不仅依赖比特币。他认为，这将更好地反映更广泛的加密景观的多样性和潜力。 XRP的长期支持者Deaton还主张结束行业内部的内斗，以支持对监管和政策事项的联合倡导。

Midnight’s Infrastructure Enables Cross-Chain Participation

午夜的基础设施可以跨链参与

Beyond the airdrop, the Midnight sidechain is being built to encourage developer engagement across the blockchain ecosystem. One of its defining features will allow developers to pay network fees in the native currency of their home blockchain, such as ETH for Ethereum or SOL for Solana, rather than requiring a new token standard.

除了气盘之外，还建立了午夜的Sidechain，以鼓励整个区块链生态系统的开发人员参与。其定义功能之一将使开发人员能够以其本地区块链的母金支付网络费用，例如以太坊的ETH或SOL for SOLANA，而不是需要新的令牌标准。

The protocol will also support cross-chain validator participation. This means that infrastructure providers from various blockchains can help secure the Midnight network and earn rewards, regardless of which platform they primarily support.

该协议还将支持跨链验证者的参与。这意味着来自各种区块链的基础架构提供商都可以帮助确保午夜网络并赢得奖励，而不管他们主要支持哪种平台。

Currently in testnet, the Midnight mainnet is scheduled for release by the end of 2025. As development progresses, Hoskinson expressed optimism that this project will help broaden access to privacy solutions and bridge ideological divides across the crypto industry.

目前在Testnet中，午夜的Mainnet计划在2025年底之前发布。随着开发的进展，霍斯金森（Hoskinson）表示乐观，认为该项目将有助于扩大对隐私解决方案的访问权限，并在加密货币行业进行桥梁意识形态鸿沟。

“This is the project I’m having the most fun with,” he said, citing the project’s potential to unite different communities and expand the reach of decentralized technologies.

他说：“这是我最喜欢的项目。”该项目有可能团结不同社区并扩大了分散技术的影响力。
