Apple doesn't allow any other browser engine than Webkit. So essentially all browsers on iOS are reskinned Safari.

You will have to wait until the WebUSB support lands in Safari.

I am not sure what are you trying to say with this comment. AFAIK there is not a single browser on iOS that is not webkit. Even in EU all browsers are reskinned safari.

Also even if somebody build browser engine for alt store then the support of WebUSB (which for sure needs support from OS) would require Apple involvement.
