Cardano + Midnight
Cardano is where your stake, your level and your NFTs live — this site only reads it. Midnight is Cardano's data-protection partner chain: a place for records that only you can open. Pool BRIAN brings both together, and pays the fees.

Cardano — identity and ownership
Your sign-in, your delegation to BRIAN, your wallet level and your NFTs. Read only: this site never builds or submits a Cardano transaction, and signing in asks for a short message, never a transaction.

Midnight — what is yours alone
Match records sealed with a key only you hold, and proofs such as “ten private matches” that show nothing else. On the chain: a 32-byte commitment and a counter — no name, no result, no address.
How a record is made
Four steps. Your secret never leaves your device, and you never pay.
- Play A finished match leaves a digest: seed, line-up, ticks, winner, end state. Two browsers that saw the same match compute the same digest.
- Seal Your Midnight wallet proves the record and seals it, on your device. The record is a hash of your secret key and the digest.
- BRIAN pays The sealed record goes to BRIAN's fee service, which pays the fee in DUST from the pool's own NIGHT and submits it. It sees the commitment, never you.
- Only you can open it Later you can prove that a match happened, or that you hold at least ten records, to whomever you choose — without showing which.
Who pays
- BRIAN pays the fee. Every Midnight fee this site offers is paid by the pool.
- In DUST, from the pool's NIGHT. DUST is generated by holding NIGHT and refills by itself.
- DUST can only pay fees. It cannot be sent, sold or given away — nothing of value changes hands.
- You need neither NIGHT nor DUST. A Midnight wallet such as Lace is all it takes.
If the pool's fee capacity is used up, recording pauses until it has refilled. Nothing is ever charged to you.
BRIAN will never
The same rule as on Cardano, carried over to the second chain.
- move NIGHT, DUST or any token from or to your wallet
- ask you to send anything, on Cardano or on Midnight
- see your secret key, your private state or your match records in clear text
- store a Midnight address next to your stake address
