 The beloved and widely used Mumbai testnet for Polygon PoS uses Ethereum’s Goerli testnet as its root chain. This means Mumbai counts on Goerli for block production. 
 But Goerli is currently scheduled for deprecation, by the end of Q1 2024. The Amoy testnet for Polygon PoS is the replacement and has been launched, a new testnet that provides a low-stakes environment to build, test, and break things.

 The Attestation Service is a groundbreaking framework designed to facilitate the creation, management, and verification of attestations on EVM cpmpatible blockchains (public or cosortium). By leveraging the decentralized and immutable nature of blockchain technology, it allows individuals and organizations to issue verifiable statements of fact, which can include anything from identity verification to compliance with regulatory standards. This service empowers users to maintain control over their data while providing transparency and trustworthiness to various processes.

 QBFT (Quorum Byzantine Fault Tolerance) is the latest consensus algorithm now available in Hyperledger Besu on the SettleMint platform. This proof-of-authority consensus mechanism is designed to provide enhanced security, scalability, and performance for enterprise blockchain networks. QBFT ensures that all participating nodes in the network agree on the state of the blockchain, even in the presence of potentially malicious actors or network failures. By utilizing a leader-based system with rotating block proposers, QBFT maintains network integrity while allowing for efficient transaction processing.

 The feature to customize Kubernetes deployment settings within SettleMint offers users an intuitive user interface (UI) that simplifies the management of deployed services in self-managed installations. This UI provides a comprehensive set of options for adjusting key deployment parameters, such as annotations, labels, tolerations, affinity, and node selectors. By making these customization options readily accessible, SettleMint enables users to tailor their Kubernetes configurations to better align with their specific operational needs and infrastructure requirements, fostering a more efficient and optimized deployment process.

+![Changelog Image](../static/img/releases/user-wallet-manager.png)
 
 The User Wallet Manager feature within SettleMint provides a sophisticated and elegant solution for account management and identity masking through the use of Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallets. These HD wallets generate a structured hierarchy of private/public key pairs from a single master seed, allowing users to create a unique address for every transaction. This approach not only enhances privacy and security—since the addresses are related but not publicly linked—but also streamlines the management of keys. Users can efficiently create multiple child wallets under a single parent wallet, making it easy to categorize funds and back up their assets securely.

 SettleMint’s support for the Soneium testnet is a significant boost for developers wanting to build on this efficient blockchain platform. Soneium is designed for scalability and offers a great environment for testing decentralized applications (dApps) before going live. With this integration, developers can take advantage of SettleMint’s powerful tools while experimenting with Soneium’s features, like low transaction costs and high processing speed. This makes it easier for teams to test their applications effectively and make quick adjustments as needed.

 We’re excited to introduce a new feature in SettleMint that lets you connect directly to existing Hyperledger Besu and Quorum blockchain networks run by other organizations. This is a big win for businesses already involved in blockchain consortia or those looking to join one. With this feature, you can create nodes on the SettleMint platform and easily integrate with these permissioned networks, making collaboration with external partners more streamlined and secure.

+# Simplified Subgraph Deployments
+
+We've significantly simplified the subgraph deployment process. Here's what's changed:
+
+**Previously:**
+
+- Required deploying a smart contract set
+- Required IPFS deployment
+- Middleware needed explicit connections to both smart contract set and IPFS
+- Subgraphs could only be deployed to middlewares from their connected smart contract set
+
+**Now:**
+
+- Deploy middlewares independently without a smart contract set or IPFS required
+- Deploy subgraphs from any smart contract set to any middleware within an application
+
+**Key Benefits:**
+
+- Simplified Architecture: Reduced deployment complexity and dependencies
+- Cost Efficiency: Reuse graph middlewares across different smart contract sets
+- Enhanced Flexibility: Freedom to deploy subgraphs from any smart contract set to any middleware
