Bio

Andrew Canday is a Co-Founder of PocketBits, an India-based cryptocurrency exchange founded in Mumbai in 2016 alongside Sohail Merchant and Hussain Effendi. He served as CMO and later as Chief Business Officer at PocketBits from July 2019 until September 2023, with his LinkedIn indicating the PocketBits role is now historical. His current LinkedIn headline describes him as Founder and Chairman of Whale Capital, a crypto investment and capital management venture. Whale Capital's product scope, legal entity, and regulatory status should be independently verified. Canday brings a background in B2B sales, marketing, and business development to his ventures. Regarding PocketBits operational status: material user allegations about withdrawal delays and poor support have been reported online. These are user allegations unconfirmed by regulators or courts. Users should independently verify current PocketBits platform functionality. Current operational or regulatory decisions at PocketBits should not be attributed to Canday for periods after his September 2023 departure from the platform without supporting evidence. PocketBits should not be confused with impersonator scam platforms using the same name.
