Cosme, this might be one of the sharpest breakdowns of TH3Labs we’ve seen, thank you for taking the time to lay it out so clearly.
The framing of @cuboplus to Plan ₿ to TH3Labs as a transition from public to private is exactly right, and the convergences you point to, like Lightning and L402, Taproot Assets, and Liquid for institutional compliance, are exactly the kind of ideas that inspire what we want to build next. Really appreciate having people who get the stack at this level paying attention. More to come.
This announcement materializes the transition from the public and educational layers of El Salvador’s stack —CUBO+ as the Bitcoin+AI talent pipeline with access to sovereign B300 compute, and Plan ₿ as a vector of global sovereignty— to a private company positioning itself as an integral enabler (DASP infrastructure + AI agents + regulatory compliance). TH3Labs leverages the most advanced legal framework in the hemisphere and focuses on concrete, high-potential convergences: Lightning + L402 for autonomous AI agent payments, Taproot Assets for Bitcoin-based digital assets executable by AI, and Liquid for institutional use cases where AI automates compliance and settlement.
✔️ Private-sector execution of the public stack + ecosystem enabler role (not merely a service provider).
✔️ Early mover / first mover in the concrete convergence of AI + Bitcoin + tokenization, with explicit and actionable use cases.
✔️ Full alignment with the R&D mandate of the Innovation and Technological Manufacturing Promotion Law and the explicit “laboratory” vision articulated by the founders.
✔️ Strategic CGO role (Kevin Rivera), who comes directly from CUBO+ and Plan B Network, making the transition organic and credible.
✔️ Favorable macro timing: pioneering regulatory framework + already-deployed Bitcoin infrastructure + sovereign AI push (B300 chips).

Salvadorans Found TH3Labs to Bring AI and Blockchain to Businesses in the Country and the Region
Under the Law for the Promotion of Innovation, TH3Labs emerges as a Salvadoran initiative to bring advanced technology to companies in the region.
El Salvador currently has one of the most comprehensive regulatory frameworks in the world for technology companies, and the Law for the Promotion of Innovation and Technological Manufacturing is its cornerstone. @th3labssv was founded precisely under this law: a company established by Marco Suvillaga Schonenberg, Giancarlo Pablo, and Kevin Rivera, three Salvadoran professionals specializing in artificial intelligence, digital assets, and technology law, with experience in regional and international projects.
"El Salvador's regulatory framework not only offers tax incentives. It's a catalyst for technological entrepreneurship. It allowed us to leverage the experience each of us had accumulated over years in the industry and build something of our own from here," said Suvillaga Schonenberg, CEO of TH3Labs and a lawyer specializing in blockchain.
TH3Labs operates in four main verticals: applied artificial intelligence; blockchain infrastructure architecture and development for tokenization and digital assets; cybersecurity for Digital Asset Service Provider platforms; and software development for digital and institutional products. Their approach is not to offer each service separately, but rather to integrate them according to each client's specific needs and operate at the intersection of disruptive technology, compliance, and business strategy.
"First, we conduct an assessment and identify the client's real needs. We're not going to tell someone they need to integrate blockchain-based solutions if what they really need is something else. We work in a personalized way with each client," explained Suvillaga Schonenberg.
Pablo, the technology director and an engineer specializing in infrastructure for digital assets and artificial intelligence, placed the technical offering in a broader context. "The decreasing cost of many technological implementations has made it possible to integrate different areas of expertise to solve business problems that previously required multiple providers. That's exactly what we do," he stated.
He also described TH3Labs not only as a service provider, but as an enabler. “If a company wants to establish itself as a Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) in El Salvador, we can build the infrastructure behind it: the platform, the smart contracts, the compliance architecture,” Pablo explained.
At the same time, the technology director pointed out that an interesting case is the convergence between artificial intelligence, Bitcoin, and tokenization, which opens new opportunities for financial infrastructure.
“In autonomous payments, we see potential with Lightning and L402 (a protocol that allows AI agents to pay for online services without human intervention); Taproot Assets enables the issuance of digital assets on Bitcoin with logic that AI can execute, and Liquid opens up institutional cases such as tokenized debt, where AI can automate compliance and settlement. The challenge is not only issuing tokens, but also integrating identity, compliance, custody, and financial operations,” he stated.
A Legal Framework That Makes a Difference
Suvillaga Schonenberg emphasized the difference that the country's legal framework represents. “We operate within the most advanced and favorable legal frameworks in the hemisphere.” “This gives our clients legal certainty that they can’t find anywhere else in the region,” he stated.
The regulatory ecosystem he refers to includes the Law for the Promotion of Innovation and Technological Manufacturing, the Bitcoin Law, the Artificial Intelligence Law, and the Law on the Issuance of Digital Assets. “El Salvador has clearly established what can be done and how it can be done, and it has knowledgeable and pioneering regulatory authorities in their respective fields. We build technology with regulatory compliance. That is our competitive advantage,” he added.
“First, we conduct an assessment and identify the client’s real needs. We’re not going to tell someone they need to integrate blockchain-based solutions if what they really need is something else. We work in a personalized way with each client,” explained Suvillaga Schonenberg.

We build technology with regulatory compliance. That is our competitive advantage,” he added.
The same law stipulates that part of the budget of the companies covered by it must be allocated to research and development. For the CEO, this is not a burden but a direction. “The law obliges us to innovate, and that aligns perfectly with who we are. We don’t just want to deliver technological services. We want to develop solutions that generate a tangible impact in the country and the region,” he maintained.
The long-term vision goes beyond services. The three founders described TH3Labs as a literal laboratory: a company whose DNA is rooted in construction and innovation. “We want to dedicate part of our operations to developing our own solutions, made in El Salvador, that have a real impact on the country's business fabric and the region. This includes democratizing access to technology for micro and small businesses, which make up the majority of the business sector,” said Rivera, TH3Labs' growth director.
“We are Salvadoran, and that's no small detail. We want this lab to be proof that innovation is also built right here,” Rivera concluded.
TH3Labs is open to collaborations with companies and institutions that share its vision of building and adopting impactful technology from El Salvador. The company can be contacted at https://t.co/AyIWtDFn6P.
