Deposit BTC from AQUA and Blockstream Green to XORA (2026)
Send Layer-1 BTC from JAN3 AQUA or Blockstream Green to XORA: peg out of Liquid L-BTC if needed, paste your XORA BTC address, and test 0.0005 BTC first.
To deposit Bitcoin (BTC) from JAN3 AQUA Wallet or Blockstream Green into XORA, open /app#deposit-btc and copy your account's dedicated Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet deposit address (no memo or destination tag is required). Because both AQUA and Blockstream Green support Liquid Network (L-BTC / Liquid USDt) alongside native Layer-1 Bitcoin, verify that you are sending from your native Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet wallet (or use AQUA's built-in L-BTC -> Layer-1 BTC swap/peg-out to a standard Bitcoin mainnet address). Send a 0.0005 BTC test transaction with Replace-By-Fee (RBF) enabled first, wait for Layer-1 Bitcoin confirmations, and then send your full allocation to earn up to 14% variable BTC APY value (8% native BTC + ~6% est. XORA rewards where enabled). Rates are variable and not guaranteed.

Separate native Layer-1 BTC from Liquid Network (L-BTC) and Lightning
JAN3 AQUA defaults to holding spending balances in Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC) for low-fee Layer-2 transfers and Boltz Lightning swaps, while Blockstream Green supports separate Bitcoin Layer-1 (Single-sig SegWit or 2FA Multisig) and Liquid accounts. XORA's /app#deposit-btc rail credits native Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet transactions only. In Blockstream Green, select your Bitcoin Layer-1 account; in AQUA, either send from your Layer-1 Bitcoin balance or select Swap / Send to an on-chain Bitcoin mainnet address so AQUA executes an atomic peg-out to Layer-1 BTC.
Dedicated per-account BTC address on XORA (zero memo required)
Unlike XRP or Stellar XLM, XORA assigns a unique Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet deposit address to every user at /app#deposit-btc. You never need a Destination Tag, Memo, or OP_RETURN note. Always verify the first 6 and last 6 characters of your XORA BTC address on your phone or paired Blockstream Jade hardware screen before signing.
Sat/vB miner fees, RBF, and 0.0005 BTC test send
Check live Bitcoin mempool fee rates before broadcasting so your UTXO is not stuck at sub-mempool sat/vB fees, and keep Replace-By-Fee (RBF) enabled in Blockstream Green or AQUA so you can bump fees if block space spikes. Broadcast a 0.0005 BTC test send first and verify credit inside XORA before moving a larger UTXO stack.
Self-custody Bitcoin vs XORA custodial BTC yield tradeoffs
AQUA and Blockstream Green hold keys in self-custody (or 2-of-2 / hardware-assisted multisig) at 0% native BTC yield with zero third-party lending exposure. XORA is a custodial neobank publishing variable, non-guaranteed BTC yield (up to 14% APY value where enabled) with daily accrual, $0 XORA deposit fees, no fixed lockups, counterparty risk, and no FDIC or SIPC insurance.
JAN3 AQUA vs Blockstream Green vs XORA BTC rail
| Item | JAN3 AQUA Wallet | Blockstream Green | XORA BTC rail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supported send rail | Layer-1 BTC wallet or L-BTC -> BTC peg-out | Bitcoin Layer-1 account (Single-sig / 2FA) | Layer-1 Bitcoin Mainnet (/app#deposit-btc) |
| Liquid L-BTC / USDt? | Peg out to Layer-1 BTC first | Do not send from Liquid sub-account | Native Layer-1 BTC only |
| Tag / Memo | None required (dedicated BTC address) | None required (dedicated BTC address) | Address-attributed (/app#deposit-btc) |
| Fee & test send | On-chain sat/vB + 0.0005 BTC test | Custom sat/vB RBF + 0.0005 BTC test | $0 XORA deposit fee |
XORA's /app#deposit-btc rail accepts native Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet (BTC) only. Never send Liquid Network L-BTC, Liquid USDt, or Lightning BOLT11 payments directly without pegging out or sending from a native Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet account to your dedicated XORA BTC address.
Checklist
- Open /app#deposit-btc in XORA and copy your account's dedicated Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet deposit address.
- In Blockstream Green, select your native Layer-1 Bitcoin account (never a Liquid L-BTC account); in JAN3 AQUA, select Bitcoin (Layer-1) or initiate an on-chain Bitcoin mainnet send/peg-out.
- Paste your XORA Layer-1 Bitcoin deposit address and enter a 0.0005 BTC test amount.
- Review the sat/vB miner fee (plus any Liquid-to-BTC swap fee if pegging out from AQUA) and keep Replace-By-Fee (RBF) enabled.
- Verify the first and last 6 characters of your XORA BTC address on screen (or on a paired Jade device) and broadcast the transaction.
- Wait for Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet confirmations and XORA balance credit before transferring your full BTC allocation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I send Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC) directly to my XORA BTC deposit address?
No. Liquid Network uses confidential sidechain addresses (lq1... / VJL...) that are incompatible with Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet. However, pasting a standard Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet address into AQUA's send flow lets AQUA peg out L-BTC into a native Layer-1 BTC output paying your XORA address.
Does Blockstream Green 2FA Multisig work when sending BTC to XORA?
Yes. Whether your Blockstream Green Layer-1 Bitcoin account uses Native SegWit Single-sig or 2-of-2 Multisig Shield, the outbound transaction is a standard Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet spend that XORA credits automatically after confirmation.
Do I need a Memo or Destination Tag for BTC deposits on XORA?
No. Every XORA account has its own dedicated Layer-1 Bitcoin mainnet deposit address on /app#deposit-btc.
How does XORA's variable BTC yield compare to holding BTC in Green or AQUA?
Holding BTC in Blockstream Green or AQUA earns 0% yield with self-custody key control. Moving BTC to XORA introduces custodial counterparty risk (not a bank, not FDIC or SIPC insured) in exchange for liquid, daily-accruing variable BTC yield (up to 14% APY value where enabled, not guaranteed).
