Your status-go changes are considered a breaking change, if ONE of the following applies:

1. Clients are incompatible with changes and must be adapted to work

   • Removing an API endpoint
   • Changing API endpoint arguments </aside>

2. Previous versions of status-go are incompatible with changes on the protocol level

   <aside> 👉

   • Changing Waku content topic format for some chats
   • Changing local pairing connection string in a not backwards-compatible way </aside>
