ODATANO Reports 14,698 Sponsored Transactions on Midnight Preprod

ODATANO talk say im API process 14,698 sponsored transactions for Midnight Preprod over 14 days. Di project record one peak of approximately 2,600 transactions for one day and report say 99.7% finalize onchain.

Di activity involve NIGHTGATE, ODATANO’s gateway wey people dey use interact with Midnight data and smart contracts. Preprod na test network wey dey separate from Midnight mainnet.

AI Agents Call Midnight Contracts With Sponsored Fees

According to ODATANO, agents fit call contracts through NIGHTGATE without holding NIGHT, without signing for network fees, or waiting for wallet. Di project list attestations, swaps, token minting, and contract deployment as operations wey sponsorship dey support.

NIGHTGATE dey use OData V4, one standard for accessing data and services through API. Im Midnight interface dey provide information about blocks, transactions, and contract state, plus functions for document anchoring, proofs, and transaction submission.

Di gateway dey part of ODATANO’s open-source infrastructure. Im Cardano component, ODATANO CORE, dey provide access to data like addresses, assets, and unspent transaction outputs.

How DUST Sponsorship Works

Midnight dey use DUST to pay network fees. DUST na shielded, nontransferable resource wey dem generate from registered NIGHT holdings. Dem dey consume am when transactions execute, and e dey replenish over time reach one defined capacity.

When dem sponsor transaction, di sponsor go supply di DUST wey di fee need. Dis one allow agent or application wey dey use di service to submit supported operations without generate im own DUST.

NIGHTGATE’s documentation still describe one workflow wey user go build and sign contract call locally. Dem go then send di resulting transaction to sponsor, wey go cover di fee and submit am to di network.

API Access and Mainnet Vaults

ODATANO’s hosted API dey use one key for im Cardano and Midnight Preprod services. Developers fit access di services through OData, while Model Context Protocol servers dey connect AI agents to di available tools. Di hosted API documentation no include contract deployment among di functions wey im public key dey provide.

NIGHTGATE still support document attestations and zero-knowledge proofs. Attestation fit connect cryptographic record to contract while di underlying document still remain offchain. Proof fit establish say private data meet one condition without reveal di value wey dem dey check.

Di project don announce before say im first attestation vault contracts don deploy for Midnight mainnet. Di newly reported transaction figures concern activity for Preprod. Developers fit use di hosted testnet API or run NIGHTGATE inside their own infrastructure.
