It's COVID, where are you working?

We're all working remote until Summer 2021. After that, if and when it's safe to do so, we'll return to a part-time office arrangement in downtown Toronto. We've learned a lot working remotely and are pretty good at it, but also miss connecting and collaborating with our team!

Why Ledn?

Our mission is to be a leader in the digital asset financial system both in Canada and globally, and helping clients around the world save and borrow digital assets.
