<p>September was a significant month for xCall, as BTP blocks were thoroughly tested and deployed to the mainnet. This development is not only crucial for xCall, but it also sets the stage for the successful deployment of IBC Archway integration to the mainnet by the end of the month. Moreover, we were able to announce the winners of the xCall Incentivized Testnet Challenge and share an updated integration milestones board with the community.</p><p>xCall Architecture / Product</p><p>Development this month has focused on activating and testing BTP blocks, which other integration milestones for this month depended on. This involved testing them on the testnet and deploying them on the mainnet. Additionally, the team aimed to enhance the onboarding experience for new developers, such as providing additional support for those participating in the Incentivized Testnet and prioritizing the development of tooling to facilitate the adoption of xCall.</p><h2 id="header-0">Last Month</h2><ul><li>Support provided for the Incentivized Testnet.</li><li>BTP blocks activated and tested on Lisbon.</li><li><a href="https://docs.icon.community/getting-started/how-to-run-a-validator-node/register-prep-node-public-key" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Public keys registered</a> for validators.</li><li>BTP blocks activated on mainnet.</li></ul><h2 id="header-1">Next Month</h2><ul><li>Build out client library for xCall SDK.</li><li>Work on revisions for xCall SDK.</li><li>Commence testing on xCall SDK.</li><li>Development has commenced on a BTP tracker, dependent on the xCall SDK specifications.
