JAN3 primary-source snapshot

Fetched: 2026-08-08 UTC

1) JAN3 company site / about page

Sources:

Selected excerpts:

The economy of the 21st century will be built on Bitcoin. We provide the technologies and solutions for individuals, enterprises, and nation-states to prepare for the future, succeed, and be in charge of their own destiny.

JAN3 is a Bitcoin technology company focused on expanding access to Bitcoin and financial freedom around the world. We provide tools for individuals, enterprises, and nation-states to benefit from a free and open financial system based on Bitcoin.

Additional signals:

  • JAN3 explicitly frames itself as a company, not a protocol or neutral standard body.
  • The company positioning is broad enough that AQUA should be read as one product surface inside a larger JAN3 operating shell rather than as an orphan wallet app.
  • The official homepage directly presents AQUA as JAN3’s “Bitcoin superapp,” which makes the product-to-company relationship first-party rather than inferred.

2) AQUA homepage / footer

Source: https://aqua.net/

Selected excerpts:

AQUA is your global passport to financial inclusion, designed for Latin America and embraced by Bitcoiners everywhere.

© 2026 JAN3 LLC. All rights reserved.

Additional signals:

  • The footer is a direct primary-source signal that the wallet site is operated under JAN3 LLC.
  • The marketing language keeps AQUA positioned as a broad packaged spending / savings shell rather than a narrow Lightning or Liquid primitive.

3) AQUA terms and conditions

Source: https://aqua.net/terms

Selected excerpts:

By installing this AQUA beta, you agree to use it at your own risk and thus accept JAN3 LLC or its related companies will not be liable for any losses or damages derived from the malfunctioning of the AQUA beta.

Please read this terms of services contract … between you and JAN3 LLC, a company registered and incorporated under the laws of Prospera ZEDE, in The Republic of Honduras, under the corporate registration number 86588576351549 … and a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of JAN3 GLOBAL INC.

AQUA is a non-custodial Bitcoin and Layer 2 wallet that allows users to send and receive USDt, Bitcoin, and Liquid digital assets.

Our Services … are for use only with Bitcoin (BTC), assets issued on the Liquid Network sidechain and any other digital assets we may explicitly decide to support in the future at our discretion.

Our Services support or are integrated with several third-party services.

Additional signals:

  • The terms make the legal-entity boundary explicit: JAN3 LLC, its registration details, and its relationship to JAN3 GLOBAL INC.
  • Supported-asset scope is explicitly operator-chosen at JAN3’s discretion, which makes the company note useful for control-surface analysis.
  • The same terms also make third-party integration and geography-sensitive service access part of the default operating shell rather than incidental product trivia.

4) AQUA privacy policy

Source: https://aqua.net/privacy

Selected excerpts:

The terms “we,” “us,” and, “our” refer to AQUA, never to third-party service providers.

Our Services and support channels are integrated with several third-party services.

AQUA Wallet does not collect, process, or store any personal information or documents.

Additional signals:

  • The privacy policy reinforces that AQUA is an operator-defined service boundary even when it emphasizes privacy and non-custodial posture.
  • Third-party integrations are first-class enough to deserve explicit treatment in privacy language, which supports keeping the company note focused on packaging and partner-routing authority.

5) AQUA public repository

Sources:

Selected excerpts:

AQUA is a free, open-source wallet for iOS and Android.

Docs (en): jan3.zendesk.com

Docs (es): jan3.zendesk.com

Contact: support@aqua.net

Additional signals:

  • The public repo keeps the wallet product legible, but the docs path itself routes through JAN3 infrastructure.
  • That is a useful company-boundary clue: support and documentation flow through the same named operator that ships the wallet.

6) JAN3 agentic wallet tooling

Sources:

Selected excerpts:

MCP server and CLI for managing Bitcoin and Liquid Network wallets through AI assistants.

JAN3 Account - Login, Lightning Address, and WapuPay (pay ARS bank accounts with USDT) via your JAN3 account

Additional signals:

  • JAN3 is not only shipping a mobile wallet; it is also extending the wallet/account surface into agent tooling.
  • The JAN3 account layer, Lightning Address support, and WapuPay integration are useful clues that the company boundary can answer questions the product note alone cannot: who packages identity, support, payment rails, and account-adjacent workflow around AQUA?

Notes

  • This pass did not surface a classic JAN3 company whitepaper or litepaper.
  • The strongest primary materials were JAN3’s official company pages, AQUA’s legal pages and footer, the AQUA repository README, and JAN3’s own agentic-aqua materials.
  • JAN3 is best treated as the named operator and packaging boundary around AQUA’s wallet distribution, support/docs path, asset-support policy, and integration shell rather than as a neutral protocol or only a marketing parent brand.
