SecondFi has warned users whose wallets were affected in an earlier security incident to be careful with upcoming NIGHT token claims. According to the wallet app, some affected users will reach their NIGHT claim window on Sept. 22, but the Midnight Foundation system only allows claims from the original wallet address and does not support switching to another unaffected address. SecondFi said those impacted wallets carry permanent security risks, meaning any NIGHT claimed through them could be stolen. The company also said the NIGHT claim process is managed independently by the Midnight Foundation, and that its own wallet migration and asset recovery tools do not cover NIGHT claims. Users with related issues were told to contact the Midnight Foundation directly. SecondFi had previously suffered a security incident between June 21 and June 23, in which about 16.1 million ADA, worth roughly $2.6 million, was stolen across 374 wallets.
