Aqua Wallet introduces new Latam-centric features

A Bitcoin and Bitcoin L2-based wallet, Aqua Wallet experiences a complete refactor that is more suitable for the needs of its LATAM-based customers. Wallets that leverage liquid and lightning networks to make Bitcoin and token transactions cheaper are part of a strategy to promote Bitcoin adoption both top-down and bottom-up, address state countries and solve retail and personal savings problems in emerging markets.

Jan3 CEO Samson Mow announced this on his Bitcoin Podcast. There, the company received in January said that the $5 million seed funding allowed Aqua to accelerate the pace of its development team, double the size.

“We are working on a refactoring the entire UI, making it even more beautiful and streamlined,” declared Mow, revealing that wallet development and growth has been fully throttle since the inflow of capital. “I’m very busy right now,” he pointed out.

As part of these new improvements, Mow has announced the integration of several payment methods that allow users in LATAM countries to pay invoices with BTC or Liquid USDT balances. He mentioned Pix, Brazil’s national high-speed payment system, as one of these systems, but hinted that more will come in the coming months.

He also commented that Aqua Card, a prepaid KYC free visa card that replenishes Bitcoin and Liquid USDT, is still in work.

“I think this is the focus now on integrating Bitcoin with legacy systems because it’s still necessary so it’s not gone yet,” he praised, describing the associations of these integrations and LATAM users.

“Our focus has always been on emerging markets, which is why we built Aqua to provide the same banking experience as Benmo and PayPal,” concluded Mou.
