+## [24.08.2] - 2024-10-18: "Steel Backed-up Channels"
+
+This point release addresses few crash fixes and includes an enhancement to remember and update channel hints for payments.
+
+### Changed
+
+- pay: Now remembers and updates channel hints across payments ([#7494])
+- pay: Discarding an overly long or expensive route does not blacklist channels anymore. ([#7494])
+- grpc: Channel type `anchors/even` was added to the grpc bindings. ([#7628])
+
+### Fixed
+- gossipd: crash errors with large gossip_store (>4MB) growth on longer-running nodes. ([#7729])
+- connectd: crash on erroneous timeout. ([#7736])
+- Protocol: we could get confused on restart and not re-transmit our own channel_updates. ([#7737])
+- rpc: `listpeerchannels` (and thus, pay) sped up on very large nodes. ([#7679])
+- Improved pathfinding speed for large nodes. ([#7726])
