Bitget and Chorus One expand Monad staking access in emerging markets

• The collaboration follows the launch of the Monad mainnet in November 2025.
• Chorus One secures more than $3.5 billion across 30 blockchains.
• More than $6 million was staked during the first week of the programme.

Chorus One has partnered with cryptocurrency exchange Bitget to expand access to Monad staking at a global scale.

The collaboration focuses on simplifying how users interact with the Monad network, which launched its mainnet in November 2025.

The move places emphasis on infrastructure growth, user access, and the broader shift toward staking services.

Both companies confirmed that Bitget’s more than 120 million users will be able to access staking tools through Chorus One’s platform, creating new pathways for participation in the growing staking economy.

Validator expansion

The Monad network is a layer one blockchain that emphasises high throughput.

It supports Ethereum contracts without requiring any code changes, according to its technical documentation.

The focus of the integration between Bitget and Chorus One is to support a validator environment that can grow with decentralisation, geographic diversity, and long-term stability.

Chorus One already secures assets across more than 30 blockchains and reports securing over $3.5 billion in staked assets.

The platform also holds ISO 27001 certification, which is a standard used to assess security practices.

This places the partnership inside a broader trend where staking providers with stronger compliance frameworks are becoming central to blockchain infrastructure.

User access

Monad allows users to unstake assets in around 5.5 hours. Chorus One’s staking model supports flexible terms, which means both institutional and retail users on Bitget can stake or restake Monad tokens based on their preferences.

The partnership creates a direct path for Bitget users to enter the Monad ecosystem.

Within the first week of the staking programme launch, Chorus One released figures showing that more than $6 million worth of assets had been staked on the network.

The rapid participation signals interest in Monad’s performance-focused design and the integration with a major exchange ecosystem, reflecting a wider demand for accessible staking opportunities worldwide.

Market expansion

Bitget operates in several regions, including the Asia Pacific and African markets.

The platform’s presence in these regions gives the new staking programme a wider reach, especially in places where digital asset demand is growing.

Chorus One has already worked with the Avalanche Foundation to expand validator infrastructure across Africa, which positions the company to contribute to similar regional development for the Monad network.

The companies stated that the partnership aims to support cryptocurrency adoption in emerging markets by providing tools that reduce entry barriers and increase access to blockchain-based services.

With the expansion of new networks such as Monad, staking options are becoming a way for users in developing regions to take part in blockchain activity without needing a complex technical setup or advanced hardware.
