 ### Features
 
+* [\#6755](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/6755) Add custom regex validation for `Coin` denom by overwriting `CoinDenomRegex` when using `/types/coin.go`.
 * [\#7265](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/7265) Support Tendermint block pruning through a new `min-retain-blocks` configuration that can be set in either `app.toml` or via the CLI. This parameter is used in conjunction with other criteria to determine the height at which Tendermint should prune blocks.
 * (vesting) [\#7209](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/7209) Create new `MsgCreateVestingAccount` message type along with CLI handler that allows for the creation of delayed and continuous vesting types.
 * (events) [\#7121](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/7121) The application now drives what events are indexed by Tendermint via the `index-events` configuration in `app.toml`, which is a list of events taking the form `{eventType}.{attributeKey}`.
