Chorus One and Bitget Roll Out Monad Staking to Exchange Users, Topping $6 Million in Week One

Built for quick exits with institutional safeguards, the program targets wider validator distribution across Asia-Pacific and African markets.

Overview

  • The integration makes staking and restaking for Monad accessible to more than 120 million Bitget users, according to the companies.
  • Monad’s mainnet, launched in November 2025, is a high-throughput layer one compatible with Ethereum smart contracts without code changes.
  • Users can unstake assets in roughly 5.5 hours, according to project documentation.
  • Chorus One reports securing over $3.5 billion across more than 30 blockchains and holds ISO 27001 certification for security compliance.
  • The partners say the effort seeks to increase validator decentralization and geographic diversity, with outreach focused on Asia-Pacific and African markets and prior groundwork in Africa through the Avalanche Foundation.
