Lightning Network expands with simplified payments without managing nodes

In April 2025, Breez, a company focused on solutions for Bitcoin Lightning Network, announced that its software development kit (SDK) supports WebAssembly (WASM). Developed by the Breeez team, this update allows developers to integrate payments into Bitcoin, Bitcoin and node.js-based environments with the aim of simplifying access to rapid transactions on the second Bitcoin layer.

Breeez’s solution focuses on creating a Traghting Network, as reported by Cryptooticias. It is a secondary Bitcoin layer designed to process transactions more efficiently and quickly, and is accessible in a web environment. This enables applications such as social networks and content platforms Functions such as Bitcoin tips and monetization can be incorporated directly into your web browser.

To achieve this, Breez has adapted his technological infrastructure, surpassing browser limitations, including lack of direct access to file systems and the difficulty of handling traditional databases.

An important aspect of this integration is the approach.”Potential” (nodeless) SDK, term to refer to To eliminate the need for developers or users to maintain a complete node Bitcoin or lightning. Instead of requiring complex configurations, the SDK uses external services for tasks such as data synchronization and transaction validation to transparently manage connections to the light network.

This reduces technical load and allows even lightweight web applications to provide payments with Bitcoin without compromising decentralization or safety.

Breez’s technical approach addresses multiple challenges.

For example, lighter alternatives have been implemented to manage network data that normally requires heavy tools.

“Electrum cannot be run in a browser, so we integrate support as a support blockchain data source.”

Similarly, persistent storage, a failure in the web environment, was resolved in a specific configuration. “Since traditional databases are a challenge in WASM, we use a sqlite configuration in memory to add a personalized persistent observer adapted by 𝚛𝚞𝚜𝚚𝚕𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚎 and to handle state.”

WASM compatibility too Deep adjustment of the SDK nucleus was required.

“We have updated 𝚜𝚍𝚔-𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚖𝚗Crrate to work in WASM environments. We will integrate WASM compatible GRPC customers with WASM__𝚠𝚊𝚜𝚖__𝚌𝚕𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚝, implement separate DNS resolutions for WASM, and refactoring internal break clients to eliminate incompatible units with WASM and support CRRATE.

Additionally, BREEZ has created a dedicated module for WASM that promotes interaction with the SDK. “Use the type of personalized management and call returns to add a dedicated WASM interface with call returns that provides a fluid experience for developers.”

Connections with Breez services, such as Real-Time Sync, have been guaranteed.

“All GRPC-based services (e.g., Breez servers and real-time sync) support proxy 𝚐𝚁𝙿𝙶-o, allowing for full connectivity from your browser environment.”

According to Breez, these technical adaptations These allow the SDK to work efficiently in the browsermaintains the robustness of the optical network.

According to the official Breez documentation, developers can implement payments peer to peer (P2P) There are only a few lines of code. To illustrate this, Breez offers a demonstration application that proves the possibility of this integration and demonstrates how to create wallet lightning in your browser.

Breez SDK WASM compatibility is trying to solve a practical problem. Bringing Bitcoin payments into a web environment was previously unfeasible with lightning.

This update extends the scope of the light network and is still necessary Implemented by private developers in trade applicationsIt allows more businesses and people to adopt decentralized payments with Bitcoin. Breez also commented that his updates brought other novelties.

For example, the minimum payments have been significantly reduced. It can be sent from 21 SATs (minimum unit 1 BTC) received from 100 or later.

Additionally, users can already pay for assets that are not Bitcoin (BTC), such as Tether (USDT).
