Hello @faillar! 👋

1Password 8 does not support older standalone vaults. You can read some of our founder Dave's thoughts on our decision here: The future of local/standalone vaults — 1Password Support Community

Can you tell me a little more about your concerns regarding using 1Password to store your financial information? In transit, we use the same encryption that your financial institution uses to transit your information to/from their cloud (SSL/TLS) and then we go above and beyond that to end-to-end encrypt your data using your account password and Secret Key so that no one, not even us, can ever see your data. Without both your account password and Secret Key it's impossible for anyone to ever open your vault and get to your information.
