COMMENTS
More generally, the following sums are equal:
(1) Sum_{n>=0} binomial(n+k-1, n) * r^n * (p + q^n)^n,
(2) Sum_{n>=0} binomial(n+k-1, n) * r^n * q^(n^2) / (1 - r*p*q^n)^(n+k),
for any fixed integer k; here, k = 1 with r = 4, p = -A(x), q = (1+x).

FORMULA
G.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} 4^n * ((1+x)^n - A(x))^n.
(2) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} 4^n * (1+x)^(n^2) / (1 + 4*(1+x)^n*A(x))^(n+1).
a(n) ~ c * (1 + 4*exp(1/r))^n * r^(2*n) * n! / sqrt(n), where r = 0.95894043087329419322124137165060249611787608513866855417024... is the root of the equation exp(1/r) * (1 + 1/(r*LambertW(-exp(-1/r)/r))) = -1/4 and c = 0.034391206985341... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 13 2020
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 4*x^2 + 104*x^3 + 4196*x^4 + 225216*x^5 + 14845072*x^6 + 1151255440*x^7 + 102289538128*x^8 + 10226417550096*x^9 + 1135388485042624*x^10 + ...
such that
1 = 1 + 4*((1+x) - A(x)) + 4^2*((1+x)^2 - A(x))^2 + 4^3*((1+x)^3 - A(x))^3 + 4^4*((1+x)^4 - A(x))^4 + 4^5*((1+x)^5 - A(x))^5 + 4^6*((1+x)^6 - A(x))^6 + 4^7*((1+x)^7 - A(x))^7 + ...
Also,
1 = 1/(1 + 4*A(x)) + 4*(1+x)/(1 + 4*(1+x)*A(x))^2 + 4^2*(1+x)^4/(1 + 4*(1+x)^2*A(x))^3 + 4^3*(1+x)^9/(1 + 4*(1+x)^3*A(x))^4 + 4^4*(1+x)^16/(1 + 4*(1+x)^4*A(x))^5 + 4^5*(1+x)^25/(1 + 4*(1+x)^5*A(x))^6 + 4^6*(1+x)^36/(1 + 4*(1+x)^6*A(x))^7 + ...
