## How the to implement a Reset feature
If an `Issuing Service` offers a factory reset feature for a user's bolt card, here is the recommended procedure:
1. Read the NDEF lnurlw URL.
2. Brute-force the encryption and authentication of the card using all existing `batchId` values to find `K1`, `K2`, and the `UID`.
3. Use the `UID` from the `PICCData`, along with `K1` and the `IssuerKey`, to recover `K0`, `K3`, and `K4`.
5. Execute `AuthenticateEV2First` with `K0`
6. Erase the NDEF data file using `WriteData` or `ISOUpdateBinary`
7. Restore the NDEF file settings to default values with `ChangeFileSettings`.
8. Use `ChangeKey` with the recovered application keys to reset `K4` through `K0` to `00000000000000000000000000000000`.
## How to implement a verification
If a `LNUrl Withdraw Service` needs to verify a payment request, follow these steps:
1. Read the NDEF lnurlw URL.
2. Brute-force the encryption and authentication of the card using all existing `batchId` values to find `K1`, `K2` and `UID`.
3. Confirm that the last-seen counter for `ID=PRF(K1, '2d003f7b' || UID)[0..7]` is lower than what is stored in the `PICCData`.
4. Update the last-seen counter.
Note that `LNUrl Withdraw Service` can't derive `App Master Key` (`K0`), and thus is unable to change the keys of the bolt card.
The specific method for calculating `ID` is not crucial; the recommendation is to avoid using `UID` directly. This approach offers both privacy and security benefits.
Firstly, since the `UID` is used to derive keys, it should not be stored outside the NTag.
Secondly, this allows a user to re-flash the same NTag with a different `batchId` or through a different `Issuing Service`, letting the user to obtain a different `ID` for the same NTag.
Third, this prevent tracking of the NTag across different `Issuing Service`.
## Security consideration ## Security consideration
Since `K0` and `K1` are shared among multiple Bolt Cards, the security of this scheme is based on the following assumptions: Since `K0` and `K1` are shared among multiple Bolt Cards, the security of this scheme is based on the following assumptions:
