Breez launches feature to send USDC and USDT directly from Bitcoin balances

Odaily Planet Daily News: Bitcoin infrastructure company Breez has added a new feature to its developer toolkit, allowing users to send USDC and USDT directly from their Bitcoin balances to over 30 blockchain networks, without needing to first convert or hold stablecoins.
This feature combines the Lightning Network with an automatic conversion mechanism. Once a user enters the recipient's wallet address, the Breez SDK identifies the target blockchain, calculates the conversion path, and displays the amount, network, and fees before confirming the payment. The transaction is then routed through liquidity providers such as Flashnet and Boltz, which convert the sender's Bitcoin into stablecoins and send them to the recipient's chosen blockchain.
Breez stated that users still hold Bitcoin before initiating the payment, while the recipient receives stablecoins on their preferred blockchain. The feature operates in a non-custodial mode and initially only supports sending stablecoins outwards. Future versions plan to support receiving stablecoins from external blockchain networks.
