 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+
+- cosmwasm-std: Implement `MulAssign` for `Decimal`/`Decimal256`.
+- cosmwasm-std: Implement `is_zero`/`atomics`/`decimal_places` as const for Uint
+  and Decimal types.
+- cosmwasm-std: Implement `new` and `raw` const constructors for
+  `Decimal`/`Decimal256`.
+
 ### Changed
 
 - all: Drop support for Rust versions lower than 1.56.1.
+- cosmwasm-std: `MockQuerier` now supports adding custom behaviour for handling
+  Wasm queries via `MockQuerier::update_wasm` ([#1050]).
