+# Release Notes
+
+## Peer to Peer Protocol
+
+Scripts received as part of an upfront shutdown script [are now properly
+sanitized](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5369) to ensure
+widespread relay of potential cooperative channel closures.
+
+## RPC Server
+
+[The `Shutdown` command will now return an
+error](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5364) if one attempts to
+call the command while `lnd` is rescanning.
+
+New clients connecting/disconnecting to the transaction subscription stream
+[are now logged](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5358).
+
+[The `MinConfs` param is now properly examined if the `SendAll` param is
+set](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5200) for the `SendCoins` RPC
+call.
+
+## Integration Test Improvements
+
+[A bug has been fixed in the `testChannelForceClosure`
+test](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5348) that would cause the
+test to assert the wrong balance (the miner fee wasn't accounted for).
+
+## Forwarding Optimizations
+
+[Decoding onion blobs is now done in
+parallel](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5248) when decoding the
+routing information for several HTLCs as once.
+
+## Build System
+
+The [`monitoring` build tag is now on by
+default](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/5399) for all routine
+builds.
