Programmable inheritance,
built for Canada.

LegacyLink turns Canada's $1.2T intergenerational wealth transfer into a CAD-in, CAD-out estate platform — secured on Solana, paid out via Interac, with zero probate friction.

01 · Problem

Estate planning in Canada is slow, expensive, and exclusive.

Half of Canadian adults have no will. Of those who do, settlement still takes an average of eight months through provincial probate, with legal fees that price out the middle class entirely.

The result: families wait months for support during their hardest moment, and $1.2T of generational wealth is set to move through a system designed in the 1800s.

02 · Solution

A programmable vault that pays your people in CAD, automatically.

LegacyLink lets a Canadian adult lock funds into a vault in ten minutes and define exactly when, how, and to whom they release — by date, by inactivity, or on command.

Users deposit CAD. We on-ramp to USDC, sweep into a treasury hot wallet, lock the funds in an on-chain Anchor vault, and on trigger, off-ramp back to CAD via Interac e-Transfer. Beneficiaries never touch crypto. The chain is the receipt.

03 · Market

$1.2T moving in the next five years — addressable today.

  • TAM: $1.2T Canadian intergenerational wealth transfer projected by 2030 (CIBC).
  • SAM: ~14M Canadian adults without a will × ~$45 ARPU = ~$630M/yr.
  • SOM (Y3): 0.5% capture = ~$3.1M ARR, conservative path to $20M+ by Y5.
04 · Product

Three primitives, one promise.

Vault

Programmable USDC escrow on Solana, owner-funded in CAD.

Triggers

Date, inactivity (dead-man switch), or manual release.

Payout

USDC → CAD off-ramp via Paytrie, Interac to beneficiaries.

05 · Business model

Four revenue streams. One platform.

  • Transaction fees — 0.50% on every CAD → vault deposit and vault → CAD payout, capped at $250. Revenue scales with money actually moving.
  • Float & yield on locked funds— locked USDC sits in vetted, low-risk on-chain yield (T-bill-backed stablecoin strategies). We share the spread and keep a managed cut.
  • Beneficiary premium — optional $5/mo per claimant for instant payouts, multi-recipient splits, tax-ready statements, and concierge claim support.
  • Advisor SaaS — $49/seat/mo for financial planners managing client books, with white-label tier for credit unions and wealth desks.
06 · Go-to-market

Distribution through trust, not ads.

  1. Partner with Canadian fee-only financial planners (CFP network: ~17K).
  2. Embed in credit-union onboarding flows (Meridian, Vancity, Coast Capital).
  3. Content engine: probate horror stories, $0 will guides, Canadian-tax explainers.
  4. Referral economics: $25 per activated household, both sides.
07 · Why now

Three rails finally exist at once.

  • Regulated CAD ↔ stablecoin rails. Paytrie + Interac make CAD-in/CAD-out feel like e-Transfer.
  • Cheap, fast L1. Solana settles vault ops for fractions of a cent in under a second.
  • Generational handover. Boomers are transferring wealth to a digital-native cohort that expects this UX.
