The round saw participation from Toronto\u2019s Golden Ventures, Montr\u00e9al\u2019s Luge Capital, and Panache Ventures. Founded in 2021, Cybrid offers payment solutions enabling businesses to integrate stablecoin and cross-border transactions. CEO Avinash Chidambaram, with a background at Interac and BlackBerry Payments, emphasizes the significance of stablecoin in facilitating international trade without fees using blockchain technology. The company is also a registered payment service provider with the Bank of Canada. As the stablecoin sector grows, Canada&#8217;s tech companies, including Stablecorp and Tetra Trust Group, are pushing for a Canadian dollar-backed stablecoin, with industry leaders advocating for regulatory frameworks.
