 ### Bug Fixes
 
+* (x/bank) [\#6536](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/6536) Fix bug in `WriteGeneratedTxResponse` function used by multiple 
+REST endpoints. Now it writes a Tx in StdTx format.
 * (x/staking) [\#6529](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/6529) Export validator addresses (previously was empty).
 * (export) [\#6510](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/6510/) Field TimeIotaMs now is included in genesis file while exporting.
 * (client) [\#6402](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/6402) Fix `keys add` `--algo` flag which only worked for Tendermint's `secp256k1` default key signing algorithm.
