The Midnight Glacier Airdrop is a major drop in the Cardano ecosystem, distributing $NIGHT to eligible users. This guide explains exactly how to claim the Glacier airdrop on midnight.gd using the Ctrl Wallet Extension, why the site asks for an unused Cardano address, and what to do if you see common errors. Follow the steps below to complete your claim quickly and securely.

What is the Midnight Glacier Airdrop?

Midnight is a data-protection focused network in the Cardano family. The Glacier Drop is its official airdrop campaign distributing $NIGHT tokens to eligible addresses. Claims are processed exclusively on the official website midnight.gd. The Ctrl Wallet Extension is fully compatible with the claim flow.

Prerequisites

  • Ctrl Wallet Extension enabled and unlocked in your browser.
  • Network connectivity and access to the official site: https://midnight.gd
  • A Ctrl account that includes a Cardano address.
  • A few minutes to complete two message signatures.

Security reminder: only use the official domain! Bookmark it and navigate directly—do not follow links from private DMs or search ads.

Step-by-Step: Claim $NIGHT with Ctrl Wallet

1) Connect your wallet on midnight.gd

  1. Open https://midnight.gd
  2. Click Connect Wallet.
  3. When prompted to select a wallet, choose “Yoroi.”
    • Why Yoroi? Ctrl connects to this dApp via the Yoroi option, so “Yoroi” is the correct choice for Ctrl users.
  5. If you have multiple networks/accounts, connect one chain at a time.

2) Check eligibility

Once connected, the Glacier claim page immediately displays whether your connected wallet is eligible for the Midnight airdrop. If you are not eligible, the site will indicate this state; you can try another Ctrl account if applicable.

3) Provide an unused Cardano address

The Glacier site cannot pull an address or request a signature directly from Ctrl at this step, so it asks you to paste an unused Cardano address.

  • Good news: The Ctrl Wallet Extension auto-manages unused addresses for each account.
  • If your connected Ctrl account already has an unused Cardano address, you can copy it from the wallet and paste it into the field on midnight.gd.
  • If not, generate a new receiving address in Ctrl; the next one in your address list will be unused by default.

4) Sign to confirm your claim

You will sign two messages in the Ctrl Wallet Extension:

  1. Acceptance of the Terms & Conditions
  2. Claim confirmation for the $NIGHT airdrop

After both signatures are complete, your claim is submitted. Processing and token distribution timing is determined by the Midnight team.
