Description
Boltz operates a non-custodial swap service built on Bitcoin Layer 2 scaling technology, primarily the Lightning Network, enabling atomic swaps between Bitcoin layers (mainchain, Lightning, Liquid, Rootstock) and stablecoins such as USDT. Swaps are trustless and cryptographically enforced so users never give up custody of their funds. Beyond the core swap web app, Boltz offers a suite of products including the Boltz BTCPay Plugin (a non-custodial way for merchants to accept Lightning payments without running a node), Boltz Client (an enterprise-grade swap daemon for server integrations and liquidity management used by CLN/LND node runners), and Boltz Pro (a platform for non-custodially earning sats by providing just-in-time liquidity). Boltz integrates with numerous Bitcoin and Lightning wallets and services such as Alby, Aqua, Bull Bitcoin, Breez, Blockstream, Fedi, LNbits, and Thunderhub, and partners with projects like Ark Labs, Blockstream, and Rootstock Labs. Its clients range from individual self-sovereign Bitcoin users to wallets, merchants, and node operators seeking liquidity management and cross-layer interoperability.
