Melt

1) Basic BOLT11 melt

// given a bolt11 meltQuote...
const { quote, change } = await wallet.ops.meltBolt11(meltQuote, myProofs).run();
Copy

• Pays the Lightning invoice in the meltQuote using myProofs
• Any change is returned using wallet policy defaults.

2) BOLT12 melt with deterministic change + callback

// given a bolt12 meltQuote...
const { quote, change } = await wallet.ops
	.meltBolt12(meltQuote, myProofs)
	.asDeterministic() // counter=0 => auto-reserve
	.onCountersReserved((info) => console.log('Reserved', info))
	.run();
Copy

• Supports async completion with NUT-08 blanks.
• Change outputs are deterministic.
• Callback hooks let you persist state for retry later.
• If you prefer global subscriptions, use:
  • onCountersReserved -> wallet.on.countersReserved()
