Hoskinson teases a Midnight “magnum opus”, and Passport shows allowance not account

Charles Hoskinson on 17 October at 04:39 CEST writes that he is working on “a concept that only midnight can bring… It's the magnum opus of my career” (@IOHK_Charles). Name, specification and date: information is not available. @phil_uplc (Anastasia Labs) says the concept “resolves nearly every criticism”, but it is not confirmed whether he has seen the design.

More concrete is the video “Introducing Midnight Passport” (16 October 17:42 CEST): an AI agent gets “allowance, not your account”, and Midnight proves compliance with a private spending plan before a swap on Ethereum. NIGHT at 14:11 stands at 0.192560 ADA / $0.042919 on SongMarketCap (+0.54 percent over 24 h, −3.58 percent over 7 d); DexHunter 0.191204 ADA. Market cap $670.1 million (SMC) / $705.0 million (GeckoTerminal) — A≠B. The post did not move the price.

DUST, Quantum Alliance and the blog

NIGHT is an unshielded governance token (24 billion) and a Cardano Native Asset. DUST is a shielded, non-transferable fee resource that is spent. Generating DUST from accounts that hold cNIGHT is not confirmed as of 17 October. The Midnight Foundation is a member of the Quantum Alliance (9 members, 15 October). On 16 October the blog published “Building the digital infrastructure of freedom”, but the body was not readable (429).

Sentiment

SPOs are positive, but few voices: @JaromirTesar (MANDA) writes “Charles is cooking.” Users are mixed, and by reach the positive side leads (@Sssebi); @pinnaclenexusus asks for “measurable answers about the previous ones?” FUD: “Grifting is your magnum opus.”
