-Existing e2e tests shall be migrated to integration tests by removing the dependency on the
-test network and in-process Tendermint node to ensure we do not lose test coverage.

-The e2e rest runner shall transition from in process Tendermint to a runner powered by

-E2E tests exercising a full network upgrade shall be written.
+Existing E2E tests have been removed from the SDK and migrated to [system tests](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/20800). System tests are running for v0.xx applications and v2 applications.
+They ensure that the application, CLI, and REST API are working as expected on both v0.xx and v2 applications.
