Michael Gord began as the first enterprise blockchain developer at TD Bank and founded Bitcoin Canada. He founded MLG Blockchain and merged it with Secure Digital Markets to form GDA Capital, now part of GDA Group — a merchant bank for digital assets founded in 2016 and registered at 626 King Street West, Toronto.

He co-founded Metaverse Group, sold to Tokens.com and listed in Toronto and New York, and Acronym Asset Management. Across his career he has been involved in more than seventy portfolio companies and has had five exits as a founder. In four of the five, the consideration was a position in the larger entity rather than cash.

His activity is now consolidated under Gord Holdings, a permanent-capital vehicle run with the discipline of a family office rather than a fund. Gord Holdings is the parent organization of GDA Group and holds Flashy Group in its portfolio.
