KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia , March 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DataTracks, a global leader in cloud-based compliance reporting solutions, announced the launch of DataTracks Aurora, an AI-powered XBRL platform designed to simplify and accelerate compliance with the Malaysian Business Reporting System (MBRS).

The MBRS is a digital submission framework introduced by the Companies Commission of Malaysia (Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia or SSM) for filing financial statements and annual returns in the XBRL format. With mandatory digital submissions having begun in December 2024, Aurora is built to help Malaysian businesses prepare early – with ease, accuracy, and confidence.

“Aurora is built to significantly reduce the time and effort spent on XBRL preparation for accounting, audit, and corporate secretarial firms,” said Pramodh Vittal, Senior VP, Product Design at DataTracks. “Powered by AI and equipped with a user-friendly interface, it ensures efficiency at every step. Any updates made to financial statements instantly reflect in the corresponding MBRS template, maintaining data integrity throughout the process.”

MBRS Filing Challenges

With the MBRS mandate now aligned with MPERS and MFRS reporting standards, accounting professionals face several key challenges such as complex data mappings to MBRS templates, intricate business validation rules, and repetitive manual tasks across multiple entities.

Purpose-Built for MBRS Preparers

Aurora enables users to upload financial statements, automatically map them to MBRS templates, and reuse those mappings across similar entities – saving time and ensuring consistency.

Through AI-driven automation, preparers can reuse mappings to reduce manual effort, potentially saving up to 80% of preparation time. A user-friendly interface simplifies the mapping process with minimal manual input.

The smart review and validation feature helps trace mapped values back to financial statements for easy verification and error-free output.

Aurora also includes robust access controls, allowing firms to manage multiple entity profiles, assign roles to internal teams or clients, and streamline preparation and review workflows with built-in security.

“Aurora helps shift the focus from manual data entry to strategic review. Accountants can now complete five MBRS filings in the time it once took to do one,” added Rashmi Ravindran, VP Sales – APAC, DataTracks.

About DataTracks

DataTracks, recently recognized as a G2 Best Software winner in the Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) category for 2025, has been providing compliance reporting solutions for over 20 years. In addition to Aurora, DataTracks recently launched DataTracks Oxbow, a powerful platform for FATCA/CRS reporting requirements, globally.

DataTracks’ full-stack solutions have supported over 30,000 clients across 25+ countries in effortlessly navigating diverse global regulatory regimes.

HTX Research Analysis: Bittensor’s dTAO Upgrade Redefines Decentralized AI Infrastructure

Published

on

htx-research-analysis:-bittensor’s-dtao-upgrade-redefines-decentralized-ai-infrastructure

SINGAPORE, March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — HTX Research, the research arm of HTX Group, has released an in-depth report titled, “dTAO and the Evolution of Bittensor: Reshaping Decentralized AI with Market-Driven Incentives.”. The evolution of artificial intelligence has transitioned from foundational model development to the refinement and optimization of existing systems, a trend exemplified by industry leaders such as DeepSeek and OpenAI. This analysis examines how Bittensor’s Dynamic TAO (dTAO) upgrade addresses inherent challenges within decentralized AI, positioning the network as a pioneering force in this emerging sector.

Bittensor’s Architecture: Foundation for a Decentralized AI Ecosystem

Bittensor’s architecture is structured around three core components: the Subtensor blockchain, a Polkadot parachain with EVM compatibility; 64 specialized subnets; and a governance-focused Root Subnet. The network employs a dual-key security system, Coldkey-Hotkey, and a subnet UID framework to facilitate secure and open participation for miners and validators. At the core of its operational model is the Yuma Consensus (YC), a dynamic incentive mechanism that diverges from traditional static reward systems. YC assesses validators’ weight vectors, derived from historical performance and stake, to distribute TAO rewards every 12 seconds, establishing a self-regulating “stake → weight → reward” loop. This mechanism aligns contributions with incentives while mitigating malicious activities through continuous adjustments.

The dTAO Upgrade: Market-Driven Resource Allocation

The dTAO upgrade, implemented on February 13, 2025, introduces liquidity pools for subnet tokens, fundamentally altering Bittensor’s economic framework. Key innovations include:

  • Subnet Token Liquidity Pools: Each subnet’s dTAO tokens are paired with TAO in automated market-maker pools, enabling price discovery driven by supply-demand dynamics.
  • Emission Rebalancing: 50% of new subnet emissions are injected into liquidity pools, incentivizing long-term participation.
  • Validator-as-VC Dynamics: Validators now act as venture capitalists, strategically staking TAO into high-potential subnets to maximize returns.

This upgrade addresses previous systemic limitations, such as validator centralization, resource redundancy, and misaligned incentives. By linking subnet rewards to market performance, dTAO fosters competition, encouraging the development of specialized AI solutions, ranging from multimodal content detection to decentralized search engines.

Ecosystem Impact: Emergence of High-Performance Subnets

The implementation of dTAO has led to the emergence of high-performing subnets, operating within a self-reinforcing feedback loop where increasing token prices attract greater TAO emissions, subsequently drawing more users and validators. Examples include:

  • Chutes: A CLI toolkit for deploying decentralized apps, Chutes’ subnet token surged rapidly, driven by its integration with Bittensor’s Subnets 19 and 56.
  • Multi Modality (Subnet 4): Focused on AI-generated content detection, this subnet leverages balanced validator-miner challenges to ensure model accuracy.

However, projects like Kaito highlight potential pitfalls, demonstrating that technical proficiency alone does not guarantee success without robust integration with core product utility.

Despite the advancements introduced by dTAO, HTX Research also identifies ongoing challenges, including the lack of real-world demand drivers for TAO rewards, the potential for resource redundancy among overlapping subnets, and persistent validator centralization. To ensure sustained growth, HTX Research emphasizes the necessity for on-chain verifiability, standardized subnet performance benchmarking systems, and the integration of subnet token utility, such as governance or service access, to reduce speculative trading.

Bittensor’s dTAO upgrade signifies a transition from centralized governance to market-driven incentives. While challenges remain, the network’s architecture and economic model provide a solid foundation for decentralized AI innovation. As subnet tokens evolve into tools with tangible utility, Bittensor is positioned to redefine collaborative and competitive dynamics within AI ecosystems.

HTX Research remains committed to providing comprehensive analyses of these developments, offering actionable insights into the intersection of AI and blockchain technology. For the complete report, please visit Here.
