Bitget and Chorus One expand Monad and secure access in emerging markets

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

Chorus One has collaborated with cryptocurrency exchange Bitget to expand access to Monad staking worldwide.

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

The step focuses on infrastructure growth, user access and the broader shift towards staking services.

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

Validator extension

The Monad Network is a layer-one blockchain that emphasizes high throughput.

According to the technical documentation, it supports Ethereum contracts without requiring any code changes.

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

Chorus One already secures assets on more than 30 blockchains and reports having secured over $3.5 billion in striped assets.

The platform also has ISO 27001 certification, a standard for evaluating security practices.

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

User Access

Monad allows users to stake assets in approximately 5.5 hours. Chorus One’s staking model supports flexible terms, meaning both institutional and retail users on Bitget can stake or unstake 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 launching the staking program, Chorus One released figures showing that more than $6 million worth of assets had been staked onto the network.

The rapid participation signals interest in Monad’s performance-driven design and integration into a large exchange ecosystem, reflecting greater demand for accessible staking opportunities worldwide.

Market expansion

Bitget operates in multiple regions including the Asia Pacific and Africa markets.

The platform’s presence in these regions gives the new staking program greater reach, especially in regions where demand for digital assets is growing.

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

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

As new networks like Monad expand, staking options are becoming a way for users in developing countries to participate in blockchain activities without the need for a complex technical setup or advanced hardware.
