+Epoch and Uncle Block mechanism are introduced.
+
+<!--more-->
+
+1. Epoch and Uncle Block mechanism are introduced, the difficulty of PoW can be dynamically adjusted according to the Uncle Block rate.
+2. The `Package` transaction type is introduced, which supports batch deployment of multiple Modules with initialization scripts.
+3. Stabilization of Token module and issuance mechanism, the value of Token is changed from u64 to u128, which can support larger total amount and higher accuracy.
+4. Implementation of Transaction fee distribution contracts.
+5. Stdlib added SortedLinkedList, Math, BitOperators modules. 
+6. The BlockReword contract was refactored to accommodate Epoch and Uncle Block mechanisms.
+7. Module upgrade mechanism is provided, and developers can customize the strategy of contract upgrade. Module upgrade compatibility check is implemented to ensure compatibility with the old version when upgrading.
+8. Refactor Genesis to implement Genesis transaction via Package transaction. Simplify Genesis Account, retaining only 0x1 Genesis account.
+9. Introduced the network rpc framework to simplify the implementation of the rpc interface on p2p networks.
+10. Introduce Move's coverage tool to count stdlib's test coverage.
+11. Simplify Node configuration and unify command line parameter format.
+12. move-vm bump to 821ac69a5e3ff3e323601c355d8de42f957d9c26 (July 14) .
