# Changelog
## [Unreleased](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/tree/HEAD)
[Full Changelog](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/compare/validator-client-0.10.0-rc1...HEAD)
This release brings a distributed directory authority powered by [Cosmos SDK](https://cosmos.network) and [CosmWasm](https://cosmwasm.com) smart contracts. It is designed to run [Testnet Finney](https://testnet-finney-explorer.nymtech.net), the new Nym testnet.
**Closed issues:**
- When I run this command :'./nym-mixnode run --id zzznym', an error occurs [\#548](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/issues/548)

[Full Changelog](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/compare/v0.5.0-rc.1...v0.5.0)
1. Introduced proper configuration options for mixnodes, clients and providers. Everything is initialised with the `init` command that creates a saved config.toml file. To run the binary you now use `nym-<binary-name> run`, for example `nym-mixnode run`. Each flag can be overwritten at any stage with the following priority: run flags, data in config.toml and finally init flags.
2. Made mixnet TCP connections persistent. When sending a Sphinx packet, it should no longer go through the lengthy process of establishing a TCP connection only to immediately tear it down after sending a single packet. This significantly boosts throughput.
3. A lot of work on code clean up and refactoring including some performance fixes.
4. Client now determines its default nym-sfw-provider at startup and should always try to connect to the same one. Note: we still can't reliably run more than a single provider on the network.
5. Logging messages now have timestamps and when running at more aggressive log mode (like debug or even trace) we should no longer be overwhelmed with messages from external crates.
6. Initial compatibility with Windows. Please let us know if you have problems.
1. Introduced proper configuration options for mixnodes, clients and providers. Everything is initialised with the `init` command that creates a saved config.toml file. To run the binary you now use `nym-<binary-name> run`, for example `nym-mixnode run`. Each flag can be overwritten at any stage with the following priority: run flags, data in config.toml and finally init flags.
2. Made mixnet TCP connections persistent. When sending a Sphinx packet, it should no longer go through the lengthy process of establishing a TCP connection only to immediately tear it down after sending a single packet. This significantly boosts throughput.
3. A lot of work on code clean up and refactoring including some performance fixes.
4. Client now determines its default nym-sfw-provider at startup and should always try to connect to the same one. Note: we still can't reliably run more than a single provider on the network.
5. Logging messages now have timestamps and when running at more aggressive log mode (like debug or even trace) we should no longer be overwhelmed with messages from external crates.
6. Initial compatibility with Windows. Please let us know if you have problems.
7. More work on validator, including initial Tendermint integration in Rust, and the start of the mixmining system.

Nym 0.4.0 Platform
In this release, we're taking a lot more care with version numbers, so that we can ensure upgrade compatibility for mixnodes, providers, clients, and validators more easily.
Nym 0.4.0 Platform
In this release, we're taking a lot more care with version numbers, so that we can ensure upgrade compatibility for mixnodes, providers, clients, and validators more easily.
This release also integrates a health-checker and network topology refresh into the Nym client, so that the client can intelligently choose paths which route around any non-functional or incompatible nodes.
