We would like to extend our congratulations to Monad on the successful steps toward its mainnet launch – a milestone that marks the beginning of a new era for high-performance, Ethereum-compatible infrastructure. As the ecosystem prepares for this next chapter, we are excited to announce a new integration with Bitget, one of the world’s leading universal exchanges (UEX), to make Monad (MON) staking accessible to users across global markets.
This collaboration brings together Monad’s breakthrough execution architecture, Bitget’s global reach of 120M users, and Chorus One’s institutional-grade staking expertise, creating a seamless, secure, and highly scalable gateway for early participation in the Monad network.
Monad’s design introduces a leap in execution performance, pairing parallelized transaction processing with MonadBFT consensus to deliver low-latency, high-throughput computation while maintaining full EVM compatibility. As anticipation builds for mainnet, demand for safe, transparent, and reliable staking pathways continues to grow.
However, during Monad’s initial phase, direct staking will be limited, and access will occur primarily through trusted partners. This is where the Chorus One and Bitget integration plays a critical role: it ensures that users can enter the ecosystem through an interface they already trust, backed by infrastructure built for institutional reliability.
Through this integration, Bitget users will gain access to MON staking via Chorus One’s validator infrastructure, benefitting from:
Bitget will route staking operations to Chorus One’s infrastructure, ensuring that delegators participate through a highly resilient validator with a multi-year track record of zero slashing events across 40+ networks.
Staking rewards will be displayed directly within Bitget’s interface, offering a streamlined experience for users who prefer not to manage on-chain delegation flows themselves.
As Monad does not auto-compound staking rewards, users will have the option to manually compound earnings through Bitget’s interface or other integrated tools. This gives full control over reward management while preserving opportunities for optimized yield strategies.
With Bitget’s strong presence in APAC, Europe, and emerging markets, the partnership ensures broad accessibility to MON staking from day one, especially for users who may not otherwise have access to early delegation options.
Complementing the staking integration, Bitget has also launched the MON On-Chain Earn product on November 30. This offering provides users with an accessible way to participate in Monad’s on-chain economy. Users can easily join through Bitget’s dedicated On-Chain Earn interface and start earning on their MON holdings. Click here to join the campaign now!
At Chorus One, our mission is to empower participation in next-generation decentralized protocols through:
For the Bitget integration, we provide infrastructure with continued monitoring, optimization, and reporting to ensure a smooth delegation experience as the ecosystem matures.
Bitget’s influence as a global universal exchange, combined with Chorus One's proven validator track record, helps strengthen the foundation of the Monad network even before its full launch. By lowering the barrier to entry and offering a compliant, scalable on-ramp, this integration helps ensure the validator set grows in decentralization, stability, and geographic diversity.
And as Monad prepares to introduce its high-performance EVM to the world, expanding staking accessibility is a crucial part of building a resilient and secure network from day one.
Monad’s arrival represents a transformative moment for the EVM ecosystem, delivering performance gains without sacrificing compatibility or developer experience. The integration between Chorus One and Bitget is only the first step in a long-term commitment to supporting the network with high-quality staking infrastructure, research insights, and ecosystem collaboration.
We’re proud to contribute to Monad’s journey, and equally proud to help users around the world participate safely and effectively in its early stages.
If you’re a platform, wallet, or institution looking to enable MON staking, our team is ready to support your integration.

Amid ongoing efforts to improve scalability and performance in the blockchain industry, Monad - a new EVM-compatible Layer-1 network has been gaining traction. Designed around parallel execution and a unique MonadBFT consensus mechanism, Monad delivers lightning-fast throughput, minimal latency, and the security guarantees needed for global on-chain finance: all while staying fully compatible with Ethereum’s smart contract ecosystem.
At Chorus One, we’re proud to join the Monad validator set from day one. Our goal is to empower both developers and institutions to participate in the network confidently, with reliable staking infrastructure, intuitive tools, and enterprise-grade integrations.
Monad is a high-performance blockchain built to extend Ethereum’s capabilities without sacrificing familiarity. Its architecture introduces parallel transaction execution, allowing multiple smart contracts to process simultaneously — a major leap beyond Ethereum’s single-threaded execution model. This means faster transaction finality, better scalability, and significantly improved user experience.
Monad mainnet is expected to launch next MON-day, November 24th, with projected staking rewards of around 8–12% annualized yield. By design Monad does not auto-compound rewards and requires users to claim or compound rewards manually after each epoch.
As MON rewards will not auto-compound. Users must actively “Compound” stake to maximize rewards.
Realizing that this step may result in some users leaving rewards unrealized, Chorus One has built one-click compounding in the staking dApp enabling easy compounding for reward maximization.
Why is compounding important?
Like with any investment, compounding means taking the rewards earned and reallocating them to maximize the reward rate. In staking compounding rewards back to the staked balance ensures they can begin earning rewards as well. While some networks or vault products offer automated auto-compounding, Monad keeps this mechanism fully manual. This approach ensures that users maintain full control over when and how their rewards are restaked – an important detail for institutions that require operational oversight, as well as for users who want to optimize for gas costs or timing.
Another thing to note, as investors won’t be able to stake at launch, early staking access will be facilitated through partner integrations, ensuring secure and compliant participation in Monad’s initial staking phase.
To accelerate the Monad ecosystem from the earliest stages, Chorus One has already launched two core products on the Monad testnet, our SDK and staking dApp, both designed to make participation simple, transparent, and secure.
Our staking dApp is now live on the Monad testnet, allowing users to delegate MON, monitor validator performance, and track rewards in one intuitive interface.
Once Monad mainnet launches, users will be able to:
This dApp demonstrates Chorus One’s commitment to accessibility and transparency, providing a frictionless staking experience for both institutions and individual participants.
As one of the world’s most established staking operators, Chorus One brings a proven record of reliability, security, and institutional trust to the Monad ecosystem.
By staking MON with Chorus One, users not only earn rewards but also contribute to the security and decentralization of the Monad network, helping to build a foundation for scalable, permissionless computation.
Monad is reimagining what’s possible for EVM chains, combining Ethereum-level compatibility with next-generation scalability and performance. Its launch marks an exciting new chapter for builders, investors, and validators seeking high-speed, low-latency blockchain infrastructure.
At Chorus One, we’re committed to ensuring Monad’s success by offering best-in-class validator performance, research-backed insights, and easy-to-integrate staking infrastructure for partners and developers.
Whether you’re building a DeFi application, running a custodian service, or simply exploring Monad’s potential, Chorus One provides the tools and expertise to help you participate securely and effectively from day one.

At Chorus One, our mission has always been to empower investors and institutions to securely and efficiently participate in decentralized finance. Today, we’re excited to share a major step forward in that journey — our collaboration with Morpho and Steakhouse Financial to deliver Chorus One Earn, a forthcoming stablecoin yield product that combines transparency, risk management, and competitive returns for USDC holders.
This collaboration brings together three leaders in the DeFi ecosystem with complementary expertise:
Together, we’re creating a simple, non-custodial way for users to earn yield on idle stablecoins, without compromising on control or oversight.
Stablecoins have become the backbone of onchain finance, yet most treasury and fund managers face the same challenge: how to earn predictable yield on stable assets while managing counterparty and liquidity risk.
With Chorus One Earn, we’re addressing that challenge head-on. The product provides access to curated stablecoin vaults powered by Morpho’s lending network and guided by Steakhouse’s risk-management expertise.
Through the Chorus One platform, users will soon be able to:
Our goal is to make the stablecoin yield experience as frictionless and transparent as possible – whether you’re a DAO, an institutional investor, or a DeFi protocol managing treasury assets.
Chorus One Earn will debut with two curated USDC vaults, both powered by Morpho. Each vault is designed to cater to a different investor profile, offering a choice between stability and higher yield potential. They differ in the range of risk that the curator onboards to each vault to create the target levels of liquidity and borrower interest.
A conservative strategy focused on predictable returns and capital preservation. This vault prioritizes exposure to blue-chip collateral and includes longer governance timelocks to ensure oversight and predictability. It’s an ideal fit for institutions prioritizing stability, liquidity, and transparent governance.
A dynamic, higher-risk strategy designed for investors seeking stronger yield potential. The High Yield vault allocates into emerging collateral categories, such as tokenized private credit and structured products, and features shorter timelocks for quicker adaptation to market opportunities.
Both vaults are bookended by the same infrastructure: robust risk-management frameworks and collateral underwriting and real-time monitoring and 24/7 reallocations.
Every aspect of Chorus One Earn is designed with control and clarity in mind. Depositors retain full custody of their assets and can monitor vault activity in real time. Yield generation is powered by transparent, auditable smart contracts – not opaque off-chain processes.
By integrating Morpho’s lending optimization and Steakhouse’s asset management expertise into our infrastructure, we’re setting a new benchmark for how stablecoin yields can be earned safely and efficiently onchain.
Today’s announcement marks the beginning of this collaboration – the full product launch is coming soon. When it goes live, Chorus One Earn will be available directly through our Widget, dApp, and SDK, giving users multiple ways to integrate stablecoin yield into their treasury operations or DeFi platforms.
We’ll share more details, including performance data and onboarding timelines, in the official launch announcement.
