 # Changelog
 
+## v0.5.20
+
+*September 10 2021*
+
+This release includes a few important bug fixes including:
+
+- A fix for winning tickets incorrectly being marked as redeemed in the node's database even though they have not been redeemed yet
+- A fix for node crashes due to the submission of a replacement transaction when a max gas price configured
+- A fix for increased gas usage of reward transactions if an orchestrator did not receive stake updates in the previous round (via a reward call or delegation)
+
+Additionally, this release includes a new `-autoAdjustPrice` flag that allows orchestrators to enable/disable automatic price adjustments based on the overhead for ticket redemption (which is determined by the current ETH gas price). Orchestrators can disable automatic price adjustments by setting `-autoAdjustPrice=false` (default is true) to ensure that they advertise a constant price to broadcasters avoiding the scenario where they lose all jobs due to a gas price spike that causes their advertised price to exceed the max price set by broadcasters. If orchestrators disable automatic price adjustments then it is recommended to also use the `-maxGasPrice` flag to set a maximum gas price for transactions to wait to redeem tickets during lower gas prices periods.
+
+Thanks to everyone that submitted bug reports and assisted in testing!
