The node is an interface, so the code where money is actually at risk is
tested against a fake that can be made to fail, stall, or lie. Plugging
in Alby Hub is configuration, not new code.
Crediting a deposit is idempotent by payment hash: a node reporting the
same settlement twice must not mint money. Withdrawals debit before they
pay, because a payment that succeeds while the ledger write fails loses
money permanently, whereas the reverse is recoverable. Withdrawals above
a threshold wait for a human, which bounds what a stolen session token
can remove.
17 tests including concurrent settlement, concurrent double-spend,
concurrent processors, failed payment refunds, fee caps, and solvency.
