Company Summary
Coincad aims to be the Coinbase (USD Digital Wallet service) for the Canadian market. We realize how Coinbase was able to take advantage of the opportunity by making it easier for people in the US to access and manage bitcoins. That very same problem exists today in Canada where it remains very difficult to buy bitcoins using Canadian dollars. Our highest priority milestones include building iOS and Android apps and Merchant APIs for our users
