+# Changelog
+
+## [0.2.0] - 2024-12-05
+
+Rust SDK:
+
+- env::executor_id() for fetching the runtime identity (no arbitrary signing,
+  however.
+- env::context_id() for fetching the context ID.
+- calimero_storage::collections::{Unordered{Map,Set},Vector} for conflict-free
+  operations
+- Self::external() for external (blockchain) operations
+
+Node:
+
+- Removed the coordinator
+- All messages sent between peers are now end-to-end encrypted
+- Peers can share the application blob between one another, in case one of them
+  doesn't have it installed
+- The node has been split up into 2 binaries
+  - merod retains node-specific commands, init, run, config
+  - meroctl hosts client commands like context create, etc..
+- merod config now has a generic & more flexible interface
+- query & mutate in the API have now been merged into just execute
+- interactive CLI now uses clap, making it more robust (merod)
+- Added --output-format json for machine-readable output (meroctl)
+
+Integrations:
+
+- NEAR: expanded implementation to include a deployment of a proxy contract for
+  every created context, which facilitates context representation on the network
+- Starknet: reached feature parity with the NEAR implementation, allowing
+  contexts to be created in association with the Starknet protocol.
