await sdk.initialize();

const vault = await sdk.createVault({
  type: 'time-lock',
  unlockTime: Date.now() + 86400000, // 24 hours
  assets: [{
    chain: 'ethereum',
    token: 'ETH',
    amount: '1.0'
  }]
});

console.log(`Vault created: ${vault.id}`);

  from: 'solana',
  to: 'ethereum',
  token: 'CVT',
  amount: '100',
  recipient: '0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f0bEb'
