No supported path to unstake/recover Ledger coin-type-118 (sei1...) delegation post-SIP-03 #3702

Description

@kobrien

Duplicate of #3413, which was auto-closed for inactivity without resolution. Same setup, same wall.

Setup

Item Value
Hardware Ledger
Cosmos app path 44'/118'/0'/0/0
Native address sei178wsr62lq25crpvag0r5wep2jplw3jqvtyvmuv
Associated EVM address (pre-SIP-03) 0x6fDbd0C807E734E8916F11BAdDc38bF8410A7C19
Ethereum app address (path 60) *** — different address/keypair

Verified

  • Cosmos app at path 118 derives my sei1... address (confirmed via @ledgerhq/hw-app-cosmos)
  • Ledger Ethereum app rejects getAddress at path 118 → 0x6a15
  • Ledger Sei app rejects same call → 0x6984
  • Cosmos-format txs no longer broadcastable post-June 15

Problem

I provably hold the key, but no Ledger app will produce an EVM signature from the path-118 keypair. Funds (including staked SEI) are accessible only at 0x6fDb..., which nothing can sign for.

Questions (same as #3413, unanswered)

  1. Does the chain accept a path-118 keypair signature calling the staking precompile (0x...1005)?
  2. What tooling can produce such a signature with a Ledger (no key export)?
  3. Is there a sanctioned recovery flow for this case?
