Problem: Insufficient support on Address Index retrieval on Ledger wallet creation
Background
Many users are unaware / don't understand the mechanism on Address Index (Derivation Path to be precise) on Ledger wallet creation. Even for those do, they could easily forget the Address Index they've chosen for wallet creation. While in latest releases, Address Index is reviewed & added in Wallet Page, for those not using the latest release, they've been having a hard time in retrieving their desired wallet address.
Solution
Revise our Ledger wallet creation flow. Instead of asking users to input an address number, we should provide a table of addresses for selection:
- A table addresses with the first 100 address indexes
- It's better to also show the corresponding Crypto.org / Cronos balances of all these 100 addresses
- A checkbox may exist and only for pro users who know what they're doing, would be allowed to input an address number, with expert mode enabled for index higher with 100.
