-On `EndBlock` while queueing `VSCPacket`s to send to registered consumer chains:
+Note that key assignment works hand-in-hand with [epochs](https://github.com/cosmos/interchain-security/blob/main/docs/docs/adrs/adr-014-epochs.md).
+For each consumer chain, we store the consumer validator set that is currently (i.e., in this epoch) validating the consumer chain. 
+Specifically, for each validator in the set we store among others, the public key that it is using on the consumer chain during the current (i.e., ongoing) epoch.
+At the end of every epoch, if there were validator set changes on the provider, then for every consumer chain, we construct a `VSCPacket` 
+with all the validator updates and add it to the list of `PendingVSCPacket`s. We compute the validator updates needed by a consumer chain by
+comparing the stored list of consumer validators with the current bonded validators on the provider, with something similar to this:
 ```golang
-func QueueVSCPackets() {
-	valUpdateID := GetValidatorSetUpdateId()
-	// get the validator updates from the staking module
-	valUpdates := stakingKeeper.GetValidatorUpdates()
-
-	IterateConsumerChains(func(chainID, clientID string) (stop bool) {
-		// apply the key assignment to the validator updates
-		valUpdates := ApplyKeyAssignmentToValUpdates(chainID, valUpdates)

+valUpdates := DiffValidators(currentValidators, stakingmodule.GetBondedValidators())
+// update the current validators set for the upcoming epoch to be the latest bonded validators instead
+SetConsumerValSet(stakingmodule.GetBondedValidators())
 ```
+where `DiffValidators` internally checks if the consumer public key for a validator has changed since the last
+epoch and if so generates a validator update. This way, a validator can change its consumer public key for a consumer
+chain an arbitrary amount of times and only the last set consumer public key would be taken into account.
