This refers to this documentation page: https://aiken-lang.org/example--vesting/mesh.

When I run the vesting_lock.mjs, I get the error:

node offchain/vesting/vesting-lock.mjs 
file:///home/prometheus/projects/research-projects/intro-aiken/node_modules/@scure/base/lib/esm/index.js:32
        throw new Error(`${label}: string expected`);
              ^

Node.js v22.17.0

Specifically, this error occurs at:

  const { pubKeyHash: ownerPubKeyHash } = deserializeAddress(
    owner_wallet.addresses.baseAddressBech32
  );

From what I could tell, the issue could be that baseAddressBech32 returns a Promise and this has not been accounted for here.
From the MeshSDK docs, I could not locate the baseAddressBech32 function while address has no documenation. However, I was able to find getUnusedAddresses() that returns addresses from the wallet.

I have fixed this by issue by doing:

  const ownerAddresses = await owner_wallet.getUnusedAddresses();
  const beneficiaryAddresses = await beneficiary_wallet.getUnusedAddresses();

  const ownerAddress = ownerAddresses[0];
  const beneficiaryAddress = beneficiaryAddresses[0];

  const { pubKeyHash: ownerPubKeyHash } = deserializeAddress(ownerAddress);
  const { pubKeyHash: beneficiaryPubKeyHash } = deserializeAddress(beneficiaryAddress);

Is this correct or did I miss something. I can make a PR for this if its in order.
