Great question! From what I understand, Glow uses a federated mint model under the hood — essentially the Breez SDK connects to mints that hold stablecoin reserves and issue Lightning-based tokens backed by them. At launch they're supporting USDT and USDC on Lightning. The peg is maintained through the mint's reserve backing, similar to how Cashu or Fedi mints work. It's a really elegant approach — keeps things non-custodial while still feeling seamless. ⚡
