Welcome back to Blockstream Talk. This week, we're speaking to Andrew Howard and Raúl Velasquez from JAN3. JAN3’s Aqua wallet has received quite a bit of attention. In this conversation, we talked a bit about what sets it apart and why they decided to focus on Tether and Bitcoin, as well as how they managed to streamline layer-2 payments with Liquid and Lightning. We also discussed how Tether in places like Latin America can act as a feeder, introducing more people to Bitcoin. We also covered JAN3 Financial, which helps larger investors make their first foray into Bitcoin and how current market dynamics are providing a tailwind for their conversations with mainstream institutional investors and policymakers from across the globe. If you enjoyed the conversation, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share.
