 ## Deprecations
 
+### ⚠️ **Warning:** The deprecated fee rate option `--sat_per_byte` will be removed in release version **0.22**
+
+  The deprecated `--sat_per_byte` option will be fully removed. This flag was
+  originally deprecated and hidden from the lncli commands in v0.13.0
+  ([PR#4704](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/4704)). Users should
+  migrate to the `--sat_per_vbyte` option, which correctly represents fee rates
+  in terms of virtual bytes (vbytes).
+  
+  Internally `--sat_per_byte` was treated as sat/vbyte, this meant the option
+  name was misleading and could result in unintended fee calculations. To avoid 
+  further confusion and to align with ecosystem terminology, the option will be
+  removed.
+
+  The following RPCs will be impacted:
+
