+## v0.5.0
+
+### Notable Changes
+
+#### Sign arbitrary data with Wallet
+
+The ability to "log in with Nano" is gaining traction, and while the `sign()`
+function from `Tools` allows signing arbitrary string data using a private key,
+there was no way to sign with a `libnemo` wallet which does not expose private
+keys. Now, the `sign()` instance method of the `Wallet` class has been updated
+to accept one or more strings of data, hash them to a 32-byte value using
+BLAKE2b, sign with a given account index, and return the signature. Note that
+the data is first hashed only to maintain compatibility with other Nano tools; a
+future update could enable signing full-length messages without hashing them.
+Also note that the Nano app for Ledger wallets still have a bug which prevents
+them from signing nonces.
+
+#### Implement missing password update method
+
+The `Vault` class for wallet secrets supports an `update` action to re-encrypt
+them using a new password if the wallet is unlocked. However, the `Wallet` class
+itself did not have a method to make this request to its vault. This has now
+been implemented.
+
+### Other Changes
+
+The `convert()` tool now supports denomination output as a float in addition to
+string and bigint.
+
+Some functions extracted to separate files to improve organization.
+
+Type definitions updated.
+
+Tests added or updated to accomodate new features.
+
