Creative Midnight
Collection No. 01 — 1,000 Midnight Ideas

Creative Midnight

One thousand conceptual threads where the world's creative disciplines meet a private ZK primitive — Compact smart contracts on Midnight, the Lace wallet, private witnesses that never leave the browser, and IPFS-committed provenance — each one ready to ship in a single Lovable build.

Four Midnight primitives.

Compact contract deploys, private witnesses, Lace wallet + tDUST, and IPFS content commits — the four kernels every entry leans on.

Appendix · Build Strategy

The Five-Secret Protocol

Five secrets, one Lovable build, every contract provable on Midnight preview + preprod.

Chapter II · Primitives

The four kernels.

Read the primer →
onchain logic№ 01
Compact ZK contract
a Compact `.compact` contract compiled to ZK proving/verifying keys and deployed to the Midnight preview testnet, with public ledger state readable from the Indexer
zero-knowledge№ 02
Private witness proof
a Compact `witness` callback that keeps a user secret local while a ZK proof asserts a property of it — the proof lands on Midnight, the secret never leaves the browser
wallet UX№ 03
Lace wallet + tDUST
detect `window.midnight`, call `initialAPI.connect('preview')`, let Lace balance the transaction with tDUST and submit it via `midnightProvider.submitTx`
decentralized storage№ 04
IPFS content + on-chain CID
pin creative artefacts to IPFS via Pinata, then commit the CID to the public ledger through the Compact contract so provenance is verifiable but the file itself stays on IPFS
