Midnight’s Crypto Caper: Outperforming Giants!

by

Midnight (NIGHT), the crypto equivalent of a well-timed sneeze, burst into the top 100 in under three weeks after the token’s launch. In 24 hours, it outperformed all major rivals and shone like a disco ball at a crypto convention 🕺✨. The market was feeling rather glum, but NIGHT was having a party 🎉.

Midnight (NIGHT) price in best performers, cements itself in top 100

Today, on Dec. 27, 2025, while the cryptocurrency market benchmark was down by 1.3%, only a few cryptocurrencies managed to deliver positive gains. NIGHT, the core native utility and governance crypto of Midnight Network, was the star of the show 🌟. The market was feeling rather glum, but NIGHT was having a party 🎉.

In 24 hours, NIGHT gained 7% 📈. The price of NIGHT hit a local high over $0.086323. The aggregated capitalization of NIGHT jumped past $1.4 billion. A figure that would make even the most stoic investor do a double-take 🤯.

The token is only outperformed by Zcash (ZEC), the flagship coin of the Q4, 2025 privacy crypto season. ZEC’s price surged by 13.8% and hit $508. A figure that would make a dragon jealous 🔥.

Canton Network (CC), an RWA-focused blockchain, saw its token post similar gains. On ultra-low trading volume, the capitalization of CC exceeded $4 billion. A mystery wrapped in a riddle, inside a blockchain 🧩.

As covered by U.Today previously, Midnight Network, launched on mainnet this December, is an EVM-compatible privacy-centric spin-off of Cardano (ADA), a veteran PoS blockchain. Like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat 🎩🐇.

The blockchain is designed to meet the increased interest in private DeFi as well as the interoperability between Cardano’s UTXO design and EVM blockchains. A feat so complex, it might require a PhD in crypto-logic 🧠.

ZEC, XMR in green: Privacy coins rally is back?

Cardano (ADA) founder Dr. Charles Hoskinson is betting big on Midnight, comparing it to the “Manhattan project” of crypto. A project so ambitious, it might need its own theme park 🏗️🎢.

All top-five cryptocurrencies are down today. The aggregated capitalization of the crypto market has all chances to drop below $3 trillion. A number so large, it’s practically a fairy tale 🧸.

By contrast, privacy coins like Zcash (ZEC) and Monero (XMR) are gaining traction. It is interesting that both are rivals for the 22nd largest cryptocurrency position. A crypto version of a friendly rivalry, where everyone’s a winner… except the market, which is just sad 🤬.

ZCash (ZEC), Monero (XMR) and some smaller cryptos like COTI, TORN, RAIL were catalyzed by the “privacy rally” momentum in the last months of 2025. A trend so strong, it could power a small village 🏞️⚡.
