View ChartCAD Coin (CADC) is a tokenized Canadian Dollar stablecoin designed to maintain a 1-to-1 peg with the Canadian dollar. Each CADC token is fully backed by a reserve of real CAD held in a bank account in Canada, and it is redeemable on a 1-to-1 basis for Canadian dollars. CADC launched on February 22, 2021, and was listed on CoinMarketCap on March 4, 2021. It is available on six blockchain networks: Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Solana, and Linea. CADC is positioned as a fiat-backed stablecoin that brings the Canadian dollar on-chain for payments, settlement, and decentralized finance use cases. According to project materials, the CADC smart contract is based on Circle's USDC contract design, which the project describes as supporting broad composability across Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum. The token is issued by LOON PAYMENTS Inc., a fully licensed Money Services Business regulated by FINTRAC, Canada's financial intelligence unit. According to project materials from Paytrie, CADC has processed more than $200 million in cumulative volume.
CADC is issued by LOON PAYMENTS Inc., a FINTRAC-regulated Money Services Business (C10001420). Earlier documentation from DFX Finance lists PAYTRIE AB Inc. (M19690633) as the issuer, reflecting the transition of the token from Paytrie to Loon. According to public reports, Loon, a Calgary firm spun out of Paytrie, is in the process of taking over CADC. It has raised $3 million in pre-seed funding and pre-filed a prospectus with the Alberta Securities Commission. According to DFX Finance documentation, PayTrie is backed by ConsenSys Labs.
CADC operates as a fiat-backed stablecoin. Every CADC token in circulation is backed 1-to-1 by Canadian dollars held in reserve in a bank account in Canada. When users acquire CADC, an equivalent amount of CAD is held in reserve, and when they redeem CADC, they receive Canadian dollars back on a 1-to-1 basis. These contracts are fully transparent and verified on Etherscan. CADC is deployed across six blockchain networks, allowing users to transfer and transact with the token on Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Solana, and Linea. Users can buy and sell CADC with Interac e-transfers directly on PayTrie with 24/7 access. Buying and selling CADC through PayTrie relies on that platform as a custodial counterparty; users should review its terms, fees, and redemption conditions before use.
CADC's primary value proposition is providing a regulated, Canadian-dollar-denominated stablecoin for on-chain use. Canada clears roughly $424 billion per business day on legacy rails that still depend on batch infrastructure first deployed in the 1980s. Canadian businesses have had relatively few domestic options for moving CAD on blockchains, and USD-denominated stablecoins have dominated on-chain volume. CADC addresses this gap by offering a token fully backed by Canadian dollars and redeemable 1-to-1. The token is issued by a FINTRAC-regulated Money Services Business, providing a compliance-oriented structure.
CADC is used as a stable medium of exchange and store of value on blockchain networks. Its core utility is enabling users to hold and transfer value denominated in Canadian dollars without exposure to crypto price volatility. Users can buy and sell CADC with Interac e-transfers directly on PayTrie with 24/7 access. The token is redeemable on a 1-to-1 basis for Canadian dollars. Because it is available on Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Solana, and Linea, CADC can be used across decentralized applications, swaps, and on-chain payment flows. It also serves as a CAD-denominated trading pair on decentralized exchanges such as Aerodrome SlipStream, with pairs including CADC/USDC and CADC/WETH. CADC also trades on PancakeSwap Infinity CLMM on Base, and conversion pairs are available for CADC against AUD, BRL, CAD, EUR, GBP, HKD, RUB, SGD, TWD, and KRW.
The CADC ecosystem is centered on PayTrie, which offers buying, selling, and exchanging of USDC and CADC in Canada with Interac e-Transfer. CADC trades on decentralized venues such as Aerodrome SlipStream on Base. CADC competes with other Canadian-dollar stablecoins, while USD-denominated stablecoins dominate on-chain volume.
CADC cannot be mined. It is a fiat-backed stablecoin, not a proof-of-work or proof-of-stake cryptocurrency. New CADC tokens are issued when users deposit Canadian dollars with the issuer, and tokens are redeemed when users return CADC for CAD. There is no mining reward, no staking mechanism for token issuance, and no block reward associated with CADC. Users acquire CADC by purchasing it through supported platforms, such as buying and selling with Interac e-transfers directly on PayTrie, or by swapping for it on decentralized exchanges. Holding CADC does not generate staking yields from the protocol itself.
Because CADC exists on multiple blockchains, users should store tokens in wallets that support the specific network on which they hold CADC, such as Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Solana, or Linea. Always verify the correct contract address for the network you are using before sending or receiving tokens. Use hardware wallets for larger holdings to reduce exposure to online threats. Because CADC is a fiat-backed stablecoin whose value depends on the issuer holding sufficient CAD reserves, users should confirm redemption terms and reserve disclosures with the issuer before use. Because CADC exists on multiple networks, always confirm the contract address for the network you are using against the list above before sending or receiving tokens, and store larger holdings in a hardware wallet.
