Cardano is a community‑driven blockchain, and Enigma is a trusted Cardano stake pool operator securing the network. Our ADA staking pool has been operational since epoch 222, providing reliable delegation services.
We are early supporters of Midnight, Cardano's privacy-focused sidechain, running validator nodes since testnet launch and actively building tools to help blockchain operators strengthen the ecosystem.
About Enigma SPO & Why Choose Our Cardano Stake Pool
At Enigma, we're more than just Cardano node operators — we're blockchain builders, community contributors and long‑term believers in decentralized cryptocurrency technology.
We began our journey as professional Cardano stake pool operators, drawn to its mission of creating a fairer and more sustainable financial system. Running secure and reliable ADA staking infrastructure for the Cardano community taught us the importance of trust, transparency, and consistency in blockchain validation.
Now, we’re taking the next step by supporting Midnight, Cardano’s data protection sidechain. We see Midnight as a vital piece of the puzzle bringing privacy, compliance, and real world usability to blockchain. By being early supporters, we’re helping shape this new ecosystem from the ground up.
Why stake with us? Because we:
- Run enterprise grade infrastructure with uptime and reliability as our top priorities.
- Actively contribute to the Cardano and Midnight communities, sharing knowledge and supporting decentralization.
- Believe in the long term vision of these networks, not just short term rewards.
- Provide transparent operations so delegators know their stake is working for them and for the ecosystem.
For us, staking is about more than rewards it’s about building trust, supporting innovation, and giving delegators the chance to be part of something bigger.
When you delegate to Enigma, you’re joining a mission to strengthen both Cardano and Midnight, ensuring these networks remain secure, decentralized, and ready to change the world.
Check Validator Registration
A shell script that lets you verify if a validator’s Sidechain Public Key is registered on the Midnight Testnet. It checks two things: whether the key is active in the current epoch, and if not, whether it will be active in future epochs. If your key is registered, the script shows metadata; otherwise it lets you know registration isn’t found.

Midnight Side Chain Monitoring
Midnight Side Chain Monitoring is a lightweight shell script dashboard designed to give real time insights into the status of a Cardano sidechain node and its database. With a single script (ScLiveView.sh), you can instantly see whether the node is connected, how far it’s synced (both chain and database), along with details like current epoch, block, slot, and hash. The dashboard also shows the database synchronization percentage, letting you quickly assess sync health. It’s easy to deploy, just download, make the script executable, update your database password in the script, and run.

Midnight Node Monitoring
Midnight Live View is a comprehensive monitoring tool for Midnight validator nodes, combining a real time dashboard and a persistent block tracking component. The LiveView script shows things like node version, uptime, registration status, latest/finalized blocks, peer information, and system metrics (CPU, memory, disk). Complemented by simple_block_monitor.sh, it maintains a history of all blocks even surviving Docker restarts, so you can track both current session data and long term block production. It gives validator operators a full-feature view of what’s going on under the hood.
