 # Changelog
 
+## [v0.9.0](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/tree/v0.9.0) (2020-11-13)
+
+[Full Changelog](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/compare/v0.8.1...v0.9.0)
+
+The main features of this release are:
+
+* a reputation tracking system which starts to link node reputation to quality of service
+* a new component, the `nym-network-monitor`, which tracks whether nodes are working properly and providing good service
+* automatic node registration and de-registration at node startup
+* working Cosmos validators with a `nym` token
+* starting to decentralize the old directory server into the validators
+* a new block explorer at https://testnet-explorer.nymtech.net which looks the same as the old dashboard but is the basis of something much more advanced. It can be run by anyone.
+* de-coupling metrics collection from directory services to make the system scale better overall
+* reliability and performance improvements for mixnode networking
+
+See the changelog for detailed release notes.
