 NEAR CLI is a Node.js application that relies on [`near-api-js`](https://github.com/near/near-api-js) to connect to and interact with the NEAR blockchain. Create accounts, access keys, sign & send transactions with this versatile command line interface tool.
 
 **Note:** Node.js version 16+ is required to run NEAR CLI.
 
+## 🚨 v4.0.0 Notes
+This release is a major reorganization of the codebase to simplify its maintenance. It also includes a few new features and a multitude of small fixes.
+
+The most notable changes are:
+- **Ledger users**, please notice that the `--useLedger` does not set the path anymore, use `--ledgerPath` for this
+  - Please check the commands that support Ledger for more details
+- Users can now import credentials using the `add-credentials` command
+- The `generate-key` command now has a `--saveImplicit` option to save the key as an implicit account
+- Users can create `testnet` pre-funded accounts using the `--useFaucet` option 
+- Accounts cannot create `TLA` with less than 32 characters anymore (this is a NEAR protocol change)
+- Removed unnecessary options from commands, e.g. `view` now does not take an `--accountId` or `--masterAccount`
+- If a command does not work, please first check the commands help to see if the options have changed
+  - For example, run `near create-account` to see how options might have changed
