Convert USDT and USDC to LKR, and LKR to stablecoins
JET quotes both directions on every pair: buy the stablecoin with LKR (on-ramp) or sell it for LKR and withdraw to a bank account (off-ramp). Routing compares several liquidity providers on every conversion, so the rate is the best available at the time, not a single broker's spread.
