The cryptocurrency-focused firm based in Canada, Bitbuy, announced a new development aimed at accelerating crypto growth in Canada. Together, with Cred, a cryptocurrency lending, and borrowing platform, Bitbuy launched an interesting-earning platform for the Canadians.

According to the <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20191104005676/en/Bitbuy-Cred-Launch-High-Yield-Crypto-Lending-Platform">report</a>, the platform enables users to earn on their holdings, like Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and more. Upon this, Bitbuy emerges as the first Canadian crypto trading platform to allow users to earn interest in their cryptocurrency holdings.

Bitbuy president and founder, Adam Goldman said:

"Enabling Canadians to earn from cryptocurrency is a natural step for Bitbuy. Identifying an experienced partner with an existing protocol in Cred allows us to expedite this process. We're excited to instantly provide Canadians with this service offering."
