Midnight Completes Ledger 9 Upgrade for Private Cross-Chain Deposits

Midnight completed its Ledger 9 mainnet upgrade on Nov. 6, 2026, adding cryptographic support for developers building tools for private deposits from other blockchains onto Midnight. The upgrade also adds contract-to-contract calls, allowing one contract to call another. The capability is initially limited to unshielded data. Ledger 9 includes native Keccak-256 hashing and ECDSA signature verification. The mainnet release includes these cryptographic functions and contract-to-contract calls, along with support for developers building private-deposit tools.
