Description

The Issue

We've discussed having an option to delay account creation when the SDK is first started. This would give the apps more control over syncing an existing account from cross device or creating a fresh wallet.

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the SDK startup and account-creation flow, then clarify the API and lifecycle needed to defer creation while syncing an existing account or creating a wallet. Done should include an agreed behavior and tests for both paths.
