what's Breez Technology?

Breez Technology is a platform enabling seamless, self-custodial Bitcoin payments via the Lightning Network. It provides tools like mobile wallets, point-of-sale systems, and an SDK for developers to integrate Lightning functionality into apps without managing nodes. Breez emphasizes non-custodial access, allowing users to send and receive sats instantly with features like LNURL support, fiat on-ramps, and built-in liquidity services. The Breez SDK offers a nodeless solution using technologies like Greenlight for remote node management, making Lightning adoption frictionless for multi-platform apps. Breez also operates liquidity service providers (LSPs) to scale the network by facilitating channel openings and routing, while open-sourcing components to foster a peer-to-peer Bitcoin economy.

Breez Technology partnered with Spark, sponsoring a developer competition with announced winners.
