Hedera's roadmap

Extends the capability of scheduled transactions to support executing transactions at an arbitrary time in the future and allowing more types of transactions to be scheduled (HIP-423).

Continue on Hedera’s path to decentralization through the introduction of a set of permissioned, community-run mainnet nodes.

Additional support for ECDSA keys and ETH addresses to reduce friction in using ETH tooling and wallets.

Add support to the mirror node to query the state of a smart contract with initial support for eth_Call and eth_getGasEstimate.

Supports auto-creation via HTS assets by charging the account creation fee to the payer of the triggering CryptoTransfer (HIP-542).

Improves the usability, auditability, and debuggability of smart contract transactions by providing traceability into smart contract internal calls and state changes (HIP-260).

Allows a sender to sponsor and pay for air-drop to other accounts, while ensuring spam protection and providing recipient an option to accept or optout of such transfers.

Improve network security and mitigate congestion by dynamically adjusting transaction pricing when a certain transaction volume is breached.

In preparation for community operated nodes, creating tooling to support operation, and monitoring of the community nodes.

Enhancement to Hedera native staking functionality to support dynamic consensus weight.

Allow dapp to upload the Solidity code to HashScan and receive a verification against the deployed bytecode, allowing the community to view the solidity of the deployed smart contract.

Create a new addressing mechanism for account where an account can be addressed by public ECDSA address in addition to existing alias and entity id, while supporting multi-sig and key rotation capabilities (HIP-631).
