This has renewed attention around Midnight\u2019s privacy-focused blockchain infrastructure within the broader Cardano ecosystem. Momentum also remains constructive: the chart shows an <strong>RSI near 59<\/strong>, while the MACD has moved into positive territory, suggesting buyers still have some momentum without the token being deeply overbought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The move is particularly notable given NIGHT\u2019s recovery from the <strong>July 2026 hack<\/strong>, which reportedly resulted in losses of around $13 million and pushed the token as low as <strong>$0.015<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"030303\" data-has-transparency=\"true\" style=\"--dominant-color: #030303;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-1024x270.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"has-transparency wp-image-89310\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-1024x270.png 1024w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-768x203.png 768w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-1536x405.png 1536w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1-150x40.png 150w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/download-1.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Derivatives activity is also elevated.
