 This release introduces a number of bug fixes and improvements.  
 Notably, an upgrade to Tendermint [v0.34.23](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/releases/tag/v0.34.23).
 
-Moreover, for chains using coin metadata, every single `v0.46.x` release, prior to `v0.46.5`, **must not be used**.  
-This is due to an issue in the coin metadata migration. This is issue is fixed in `v0.46.5`.  
-When already using `<= v0.46.5` and coin metadata, a **coordinated upgrade** to `v0.46.5` is required.
+If your chain's state has coin metadata, an issue has been discovered in the coin metadata migration. This issue is fixed in `v0.46.5`.  
+- If you are planning to migrate to v0.46, please use `v0.46.5`. All releases prior to `v0.46.5`, **must not be used**.
+- If your chain is already on v0.46 using `<= v0.46.4` and has coin metadata, a **coordinated upgrade** to `v0.46.5` is required.
 
 Please see the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/release/v0.46.x/CHANGELOG.md) for an exhaustive list of changes.
