As stated in the report, the Hydra team is presently working on Hydra-node mainnet compatibility. The team has also added a golden test suite for Hydra Plutus scripts and some detection of Hydra-node misconfiguration.

A mainnet limit of 100 ADA per commit (for the present) has also been established. The team also addressed smaller tasks in preparation for the mainnet beta release.

Cardano's Layer 2 scalability solution, called Hydra, aims to boost transaction speed by providing low latency, high throughput and minimal transaction costs.

The Hydra family of protocols' first member, Hydra Head, lays the groundwork for advanced deployment situations.

Decentralized applications (dApps), smart contracts and other applications may be built on top of Cardano thanks to the Alonzo upgrade.

Hydra, a key Layer 2 solution to further enhance Cardano's scalability by layering a new protocol on top of the existing Layer 1 blockchain, is an intriguing innovation made possible by Alonzo.
