+## [0.3.0] - 2026-10-08
+
+### Changed
+
+- Raised the `multi-hash` requirement 1.1.2 → 2.0 and migrated the tests, benchmarks, and doc examples from the removed `Builder::new_from_bytes` API to the streaming builder shape (`Builder::new(codec)?` + `update(bytes)` + `try_build()`). The crate requires multi-hash 2.0.0, which declares `rust-version = "1.99"`. No public API changes.
+- Raised the MSRV from 1.85 to 1.99 and applied clippy 0.1.99 fixes.
