This is not an exhaustive list. This is mostly from looking at PRs or IRC meetings. Any mistakes are my own.

In progress/priorities

  • [MERGED] Transaction overhaul (#19184 - sipa) (Review by sdaftuar, ajtowns, ariard)
  • Erlay (#18261 - naumenkogs) (dependent on #19184) (review by ariard)

  • BIP324 (#18242 - jonasschnelli) (review from jonatack, sipa)
  • Allow wtxid-acceptance to the mempool (#19645 - ariard) (needs conceptual review)
  • [MERGED] Anchor connections (#17428 - hebasto) (needs conceptual review)
  • [MERGED] Unify Send and Receive protocol versions - (#17785 - hebasto)
  • Cleanup logic around connection types and enabling outbound & block-relay-only P2P connections in the functional tests (#19315, #19316 - amitiuttarwar)
  • Shadow simulator v2 from Tor project (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/sponsors/Sponsor38 - dongcarl)

  • [MERGED] Protect localhost and block-relay-only peers from eviction (#19670 - sdaftuar)

Future

  • Package relay (pre-mempool/Memswamp, rbf pinning) - sdaftuar
  • Improvements to syncing our tips with more peers (possibly including tx-relay-peer rotation) - sdaftuar
  • Alternative transports (#18988 - blocked by multiprocess) - ariard
  • Dynamically throttle min-fee-bump for RBF depending on network activity - ajtowns
  • Tx rebroadcast privacy - amitiuttarwar
  • ASN based banning (#19129 - naumenkogs blocked)
  • Splitting into separate blocks and tx p2p networks
  • Tx-relay-peer rotation - ariard, sdaftuar
  • Increasing the number of block-only relays (which is probably gated on negotiating block-relay connections at connect-time)
  • Compact blocks improvements - (maximize likelihood of reconstruction w/ extra pool or prefilled txs, parallel fetching, parallel processing of network messages)
  • Not immediately disconnect inbound peers for a block or header that is invalid
