Cardano Midnight Scores Key Japan Exchange Listing

Cardano Expands Japan Presence with Midnight Listing

Expansion into Japan

Cardano-linked privacy network Midnight expands its foothold in Japan following the listing of the NIGHT token on OKCoinJapan, the Japan branch of OK Group, a global cryptocurrency exchange conglomerate that includes OKX and OKCoin. The NIGHT token will be available on OKCoinJapan starting October 13, 2026, marking another step forward for Midnight in Japan and its work to bring programmable privacy to everyone.

Growing Presence in Japan

Following Midnight's listing on S.BLOX, this marks another step in Midnight's growing presence in Japan, bringing NIGHT to more users looking to explore privacy-enhancing infrastructure. OKJ expands access to NIGHT in one of the world's most established digital asset markets, being a registered crypto-asset exchange in Japan.

Recent Network Milestones

In August 2026, Midnight's NIGHT token was listed on S.BLOX, a Sony Group company and the first exchange to support it in Japan. The new listing on OKJ is a major milestone for Midnight's expansion into the Japanese market, as it gives local users another way to access NIGHT.
