Hedera has an audacious but simple vision: to build a trusted, secure, and empowered digital future for all.
Projects that are prioritized but not yet planned for development.
Development to enable first-class support for Hedera using popular EVM tools like Hardhat and Foundry.
Refactoring of open source tooling to streamline multi-sig transactions and management of signatories.
Continued enhancement of the development experience. Faster and more lightweight, allows us to support more EVM tooling and bring over more developers to the network.
Projects that are on the near-term roadmap.
Provide authorization options within smart contracts for non-ECDSA type accounts on Hedera (HIP-632).
Allowing Smart Contract developers to grant allowance and approval for hbars without using HAPI hinders developers’ workflow (HIP-906).
Enhancements to streamline the process for token airdrop and users associating tokens with their accounts to support the retail user and business user experience (HIP-904).
Projects actively being developed.
Modularize Hedera services to enable easier development troubleshooting, deployment, and enhancements.
Ability to dynamically update metadata of non-fungible and fungible tokens to support a broad range of use cases, including gaming and customer loyalty (HIP-657), (HIP-646), (HIP-765).
Improvements to the operation of Hedera consensus nodes that improve network uptime and resilience.
Open source implementation of The Graph for the Hedera network, hosted by Swirlds Labs.
Support upcoming Ethereum Cancun hard fork and bringing feature parity Hedera EVM.
Projects that have been completed and deployed.
Query the state of smart contracts on Hedera using a mirror node. Initial support includes eth_Call and eth_getGasEstimate (HIP 584).
Ongoing improvements to JSON-RPC to improve scalability and performance.
Modifications to the Hedera developer portal to improve the experience of obtaining and managing testnet accounts and keys.
Treat Hedera Token Service tokens in an equivalent manner to ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens by creating a proxy redirect facade contract (HIP 719).
Improving the performance of local node to improve application development, testing, and deployment.
Enhanced tooling to support an even more comprehensive range of incident scenarios, reducing and eliminating potential network downtime.
Allow Hedera mirror nodes to display verified source code for deployed smart contracts, enabling safer developer and retail experiences.
Improvements to open-source mirror node tooling to enable smart contract developers to better track, diagnose, and improve deployed smart contracts.
