[Feature Request] Importing legacy accounts #263

@ghost

Description

🚀 Feature Request

Many users report they're unable to access their legacy address funds after importing their mnemonic, seeing a different address. I believe carpe currently performs a reverse lookup on chain to get address and if there is connectivity issues this can sometimes result in a new address being imported based on their authkey rather than their legacy account prepended with 32 0's. Further issues arise if users are confused and attempt to onboard the newly created account.

My suggestion would be to simply include a checkbox for "legacy account" when importing mnemonic/privatekey and so derivation is hardcoded in this scenario.
