The Hedera Services 0.25 release brings good news for HTS users who manage large numbers of token types, as it delivers HIP-367 (Unlimited Token Associations per Account). In particular, a single account can now serve as treasury for any number of token types. (Please do note the CryptoService HAPI queries still return information for only an account's 1000 most recently associated tokens; mirror nodes remain the best source for full history.)
We are also very excited to announce support for HIP-358 (Allow TokenCreate through Hedera Token Service Precompiled Contract). This HIP supercharges contract integration, making it possible for a smart contract to create a new HTS token---fungible or non-fungible, with or without custom fees. (An interested Solidity developer might consult the examples in this contract.)
In a harbinger of more upcoming HTS precompile support, this release will also enable HIP-336 (Approval and Allowance API for Tokens). Token owners can now approve other accounts to manage their HTS tokens or NFTs, in direct analogy to the approve() and transferFrom() mechanisms in ERC-20 and ERC-721 style tokens.
