🌙 Midnight Network Integration

Enterprise Access Only

Midnight is a private infrastructure service available exclusively to enterprise clients. If you are interested to know more, please reach out to us at help@arkhia.io.

Midnight on Arkhia — Q1 2026​

March 2026 · Updated July 2026

Arkhia now supports the Midnight network — a privacy-focused Layer 1 blockchain built on zero-knowledge proofs. Enterprise clients can access Midnight ZK-PaaS and Midnight RPC endpoints through Arkhia, with granular per-project controls for advanced ZK features, an AI-assisted development workstation, and confidential proof execution.

Proof Server Version

Current Proof Server: v7.0.0

🚀 What's New​

🧠 Midnight Vibe Code (Enterprise Preview — New, July 2026)​

An AI-assisted, browser-based development workstation for Midnight ZK-PaaS projects — no local environment setup required.

Details:

  • Provision a personal GCP Cloud Workstation per project directly from Project Details
  • Built-in RAG-powered coding assistant (Google Vertex AI) tuned for Midnight smart contract development
  • Access is tied to your Arkhia-linked Google account — sign in to that identity before launching
  • Full lifecycle control: provision, start, stop, and delete the workstation; status auto-refreshes every few seconds
  • Provisioning and start operations typically complete within 90 seconds; deletion within 60 seconds
  • Usage is credit-metered against the project's credit allocation
  • Currently available as an Enterprise Preview — contact support to enable

🔐 Confidential Proving with TEE (New, July 2026)​

Midnight proof-job requests can now be flagged to run inside a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), adding a hardware-backed confidentiality guarantee on top of standard ZK proofs.

Details:

  • Opt in per proof-job request via the tee_enabled flag
  • Complements — does not replace — the existing Relay to Confidential Space feature
  • Usage is tracked alongside standard Midnight ZK-PaaS credit reporting

🌙 Midnight ZK-PaaS Endpoints​

Zero-knowledge proof infrastructure via the Midnight ZK-PaaS service.

Endpoints:

  • POST /prove-tx — Submit a single ZK transaction proof
  • POST /prove-batch — Submit up to 20 proofs in a single batch request

Details:

  • Available on Preprod — Mainnet coming soon
  • Binary validation applied to prove-tx payloads
  • All requests require a valid Arkhia API key scoped to a Midnight ZK-PaaS project

🔗 Midnight RPC Endpoints​

JSON-RPC node access for querying the Midnight blockchain state.

Supported Methods:

  • Chain info queries
  • Ledger version queries
  • API version queries

Details:

  • GET and POST method support
  • Available on Preprod — Mainnet coming soon
  • Request usage tracked separately from ZK-PaaS in the credit system

💸 Sponsored Wallet​

Automatic DUST token gas fee management for Midnight transactions.

Details:

  • Enable per-project from the ZK Project Settings panel in the dashboard
  • When enabled, DUST token fees are paid automatically — users no longer need to hold or manage DUST tokens
  • Controlled via the sponsored request header in the Arkhia proxy
  • Password-protected toggle; changes propagate within 30 minutes

⚡ ZK Prove Batch​

High-throughput batch proof submission for production ZK pipelines.

Details:

  • Submit up to 20 ZK proofs per request via /prove-batch
  • Enable per-project from the ZK Project Settings panel
  • Requests exceeding the 20-proof limit are rejected with a clear error message
  • Password-protected toggle; changes propagate within 30 minutes

🔒 Relay to Confidential Space (Preview)​

Route transactions to a secure, isolated compute environment for maximum privacy.

Details:

  • Transactions are relayed to a sandboxed confidential environment
  • Provides an additional privacy layer beyond standard ZK proofs
  • Controlled via the zk_relay_to_space per-project setting
  • Currently available as a preview feature — disabled by default; contact support to enable

⚙️ ZK Project Settings UI​

New per-project settings panel in the Arkhia dashboard for managing all Midnight-specific features.

Details:

  • Available under Project Details → Project Configuration (ZK-PaaS projects only)
  • Toggle ZK Prove Batch, Sponsored Wallet, and Relay to Confidential Space independently per project
  • All changes require password confirmation via a secure dialog
  • Settings propagate within 30 minutes of change

💳 Credit Tracking​

All Midnight API calls are fully integrated into the Arkhia credit system:

  • Midnight ZK-PaaS requests are tracked as API type MIDNIGHT_ZKPAAS
  • Midnight RPC requests are tracked as API type MIDNIGHT_RPC
  • Midnight Vibe Code sessions are metered separately against the project's credit allocation
  • Usage breakdowns are visible in the Arkhia analytics dashboard per project

🛠️ Getting Started with Midnight​

  1. Create a new project in the Arkhia dashboard and select Midnight ZK-PaaS as the network
  2. Copy your API key from the project settings
  3. Submit proof transactions to the Arkhia proxy:
# Prove a single ZK transaction
curl -X POST "https://arkhia.io/midnight/zkpaas/<API-KEY>/prove-tx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" \
  --data-binary @proof-payload.bin
# Prove a batch (up to 20 proofs) — requires Prove Batch to be enabled
curl -X POST "https://arkhia.io/midnight/zkpaas/<API-KEY>/prove-batch" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"proofs": [...]}'

⚙️ Enabling ZK Features​

  1. Open the Arkhia Dashboard and navigate to your Midnight ZK-PaaS project
  2. Go to Project Details → Project Configuration
  3. Toggle the desired feature under the ZK Configuration section
  4. Confirm with your account password
