Welcome to NuFi wallet's knowledge base. Learn more about NuFi (and access the wallet) on our homepage here or ask a question in our Discord server here.
This article explains how to check your eligibility and claim $NIGHT tokens in Midnight Network’s Glacier Drop.
If you’re holding Cardano (ADA), Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL), Ethereum (ETH), Avalanche (AVAX), Basic Attention Token (BAT) or BNB Chain (BNB), you can restore your existing accounts into NuFi’s non-custodial wallet and complete the check and claim process using NuFi.
NuFi can also be used to create a Cardano account needed to receive $NIGHT – more on this below.

Eligibility and schedule
If you were holding $100+ worth of ADA, BTC, SOL, ETH, AVAX, BAT, BNB or XRP in a non-custodial wallet (i.e. not on an exchange) on June 11th 2025, you’re eligible to receive $NIGHT tokens as part of the airdrop.
The first claim phase – the Glacier Drop – runs from August 5th 2025 to October 4th 2025.
During this period, you can connect to the claim portal, check eligibility, and claim $NIGHT tokens. After this, unclaimed tokens will be made available to participants in phase two, Scavenger Mine, and phase three, Lost and Found. More information about the claim phases can be found here.
Information for hardware wallet users
The Glacier Drop’s claim process supports hardware wallet accounts but support is limited for some blockchains. This is because the process requires you to prove wallet ownership by signing a message, which isn’t yet supported by some devices for some blockchains.
Hardware wallet users can claim using accounts on the following blockchains via NuFi:
Cardano: claim using Ledger, Keystone and OneKey hardware wallets. Trezor support coming soon.
Bitcoin (from mid-August): claim using Ledger and Keystone hardware wallets.
Solana: claim using Keystone and OneKey hardware wallets.
Ethereum, Avalanche, BNB Chain and Basic Attention Token: claim using Ledger, Trezor, Keystone, OneKey, GridPlus and BitBox02 hardware wallets.
About the check and claim process
Checking eligibility and claiming $NIGHT tokens is done using the Glacier Drop claim portal.
The process is straightforward and takes about a minute per account. You connect to the portal using NuFi to check your eligibility and, if you’re entitled to $NIGHT tokens, you choose a Cardano account to receive the tokens and sign a message to prove wallet ownership.
Important: the process must be repeated for each account you want to check and claim with.
A Cardano account is needed because $NIGHT is a Cardano token. If you don’t have a Cardano account, you can create one using NuFi and use this to receive your $NIGHT tokens. This can be done manually before you start the claim process, else NuFi will guide you to create one during the claim process.
About the Redemption Period
After the claim phases have ended, the Redemption Period begins. This is when you transfer your $NIGHT token allocation into your wallet’s Cardano account.
From Midnight’s documents:
“Successfully-claimed token allocations are initially frozen (locked). Allocations thaw (unlock) following a staggered schedule in four equally-spaced, 25% installments over the course of 360 days. For each individual allocation, the first thaw falls randomly between days 1 and 90, with subsequent thaws following every 90 days.”
See full details in Midnight’s documentation here.
Setup
If you haven’t already, install NuFi’s browser extension wallet from Chrome Web Store here.
Restore your existing accounts into NuFi using a seed/recovery phrase or by pairing a hardware wallet. NuFi supports Ledger, Trezor, Keystone, OneKey, GridPlus and BitBox02 devices.
How to claim
When you’ve restored your accounts and assets into NuFi wallet’s interface, you can begin the check and claim process by connecting to Midnight’s Glacier Drop claim portal. Below are instructions for claiming for each blockchain.
For Cardano
Important: For Cardano blockchain, NuFi wallet connects to Midnight’s claim portal using Eternl Wallet Emulation. If you have Eternl wallet installed, please disable Eternl extension and reload the page before starting the process (how-to guide on disabling an extension here).
Visit https://claim.midnight.gd/ and click ‘Start a New Claim Now’
Choose Cardano as the blockchain network and click ‘Confirm Network’
Select ‘Browser wallet’ and click ‘Continue’.
A wallet connector popup will appear. Click Eternl; NuFi wallet will launch instead.
In NuFi’s dApp connector window, choose the wallet profile and account you want to connect with and click ‘Connect’.
Midnight’s claim portal will show you your $NIGHT allocation.
Important: if your account isn’t eligible to receive any tokens, you’ll see ‘No eligible addresses found in your wallet’ – this doesn’t mean that none of the accounts in your wallet are eligible, rather only the account you connected with isn’t eligible.
You can try again with a different account by clicking ‘Choose a different origin address’. You may need to disconnect NuFi wallet from the claim portal in order to change account; do this by clicking the NuFi extension icon, then click disconnect:
If your account is eligible to receive $NIGHT tokens, you’ll see your allocation onscreen. Click ‘Next’.
On the next screen, you’ll see ‘Your destination address is connected’.
Important: NuFi automatically selects the Cardano account you’re connected with as the destination to receive your $NIGHT tokens. Midnight requires a claimant to receive $NIGHT into an unused address, so your account’s first unused address is automatically selected.
If you want to receive $NIGHT into a different account, on the left under ‘Choose a Destination address’, click Disconnect. If the account you want to use is in your NuFi wallet, click Browser Wallet, select Eternl (to launch NuFi instead), choose a NuFi wallet profile and account, and Connect. Alternatively, you can enter an address manually.Next, review and accept the terms and conditions.
The last step is to sign and complete the claim. Signing is a way to prove that you own the wallet you’re claiming with. Click ‘Sign’ and NuFi wallet will pop up; click Sign in NuFi’s interface. Hardware wallet users will need to review and approve on the device itself.
After signing, you’ll see the message ‘Your claim has been successfully signed’. Click ‘Complete Claim’ to finish the process. You need to complete the check and claim process for each individual account on each blockchain.When the Redemption Period starts, connect to the claim portal again to redeem your token allocation and transfer $NIGHT into your Cardano account. More information about this can be found in Midnight’s documentation here.
For Bitcoin
Important #1: Bitcoin claims will be possible with NuFi from mid-August. For Bitcoin claims, NuFi wallet connects to Midnight’s claim portal using Xverse Wallet Emulation. If you have Xverse wallet installed, please disable the Xverse extension and reload the page before starting the process (how-to guide on disabling an extension here).
Important #2: The claim process requires you to have a Cardano account, which you can create using NuFi wallet. NuFi connects your Cardano account to Midnight’s claim portal using Eternl Wallet Emulation: if you have Eternl wallet installed, please disable the extension and reload the page before continuing.
Visit https://claim.midnight.gd/ and click ‘Start a New Claim Now’

Click ‘Browser wallet’, select Eternl, and NuFi wallet will launch.
If you already have a Cardano account, select it, otherwise follow the onscreen instructions to create a Cardano account, and – after returning to the claim portal – click Connect inside NuFi wallet’s dApp connector window.
The Cardano account in your NuFi wallet will be selected as the destination to receive your $NIGHT tokens. If your Cardano account has been used before, NuFi will select its first unused address as the destination (as per Midnight’s requirements).
If you have an existing Cardano account in another wallet, you can enter its address manually instead of selecting ‘Browser wallet’.Next, review and accept the terms and conditions.
The last step is to sign and complete the claim. Signing is a way to prove that you own the wallet you’re claiming with. Click ‘Sign’ and NuFi wallet will pop up; click Sign in NuFi’s interface. Hardware wallet users will need to review and approve on the device itself.
