nShift: Retailers convert 30% of returns to exchanges by going digital

Businesses urged to defeat the “silent killer of profit” in online retail
LONDON, Aug. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Refunds run the risk of becoming the “silent killer of profits” in online retail, warns nShift, the global leader in delivery management software. But running a digital returns process can help convert 30% of returns to exchanges.
Research reveals that returns can cost an ecommerce business some 66% of the original item’s price, even when it is sent back in good condition.[1] However, when businesses operate an easy-to-use, digital returns process they can build trust with shoppers and grow revenue.
nShift has released a list of four strategies that retailers can use to grow their business with returns:
- Converting returns to exchanges – a consumer-friendly returns interface makes it easier for the customer to exchange the item they are sending back for something else from the brand or retailer. With the right returns software, ecom companies can automate the process of offering an exchange. nShift Returns customers typically convert 30% of returns to exchanges, helping retailers retain revenue
- Gaining crucial returns data – manual returns processes make it difficult to gather information about items being sent back. But when the process operates digitally, it creates a wealth of data for businesses to analyze. This makes it easier to spot trends and patterns. Teams can identify and rectify common problems that are causing items to be sent back. This can reduce returns volumes over the long term
- Creating remarketing opportunities – emails about returns have significantly higher open rates than other retail communications. By weaving marketing messages into these emails, ecom companies can create additional sales opportunities
- Driving customers in-store – a digital returns process makes it easier to give customers the opportunity to take their items back into store. Here they will speak with a member of staff who can encourage them to exchange the item. The customer will also encounter additional products and marketing messages in-store
Philipp Goldberg, Returns Product Director at nShift said: “In today’s ecommerce environment, providing a clear returns policy is essential. If they can’t see how they can send back a product, many shoppers simply won’t complete the purchase. But returns also serve as an opportunity to build the business. When retailers get this right, they will convert more returns to exchanges, create new marketing opportunities and reduce returns volumes over the long term.
“To make the most of returns, online retailers and webshops should deploy a returns software solution that creates a cutting-edge consumer experience and captures useful data on sent-back items.”
nShift has recently launched an Essential tier of its Returns solution. It enables growing retailers to track each return centrally. This helps ensure resalable items return to shelves without delay, while also helping to pinpoint root causes, such as incomplete product descriptions. Meanwhile, customers benefit from a simple experience online and a choice of return shipping options – all offered within the retailer’s website or app.
The new solution provides a straightforward upgrade path for retailers looking to further enhance their returns experience. The full nShift Returns solution offers a highly automated platform which enables easy exchanges at the point of return, and automatic refunds. nShift Returns helps protect retailer revenues by converting up to 30% of returns into exchanges.

MEXC Dominates Token Listings with Highest Success Rate and Speed – TokenInsight Report

VICTORIA, Seychelles, March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MEXC, a global cryptocurrency exchange, has reaffirmed its leadership in token listings, surpassing competitors in speed, volume, and market positioning, according to the latest TokenInsight Crypto Exchange report. Covering the period from November 1, 2024, to February 15, 2025, the report provides key insights into how centralized exchanges (CEXs) adapt to shifting market narratives during the latest bull run and how these changes influence their listing strategies.
Key Takeaways
- MEXC ranked first in spot listings, with 461 new tokens added.
- The report recognized MEXC as a “Trend Capturer,” citing the strong performance of its early-listed tokens.
- MEXC led in the conversion success rate (82.46%) for memecoin listings.
- The exchange listed TRUMP just 2 hours and 20 minutes after its initial on-chain liquidity injection—far ahead of competitors.
- MEXC was among the first exchanges to list major trend-driven tokens, including PNUT, CHILLGUY, AIXBT, BIO, RIFSOL, TRUMP, and VINE.
MEXC Leads in Token Listings and Market Agility
Over the past three months, MEXC has listed 461 new spot trading pairs—1.5 times more than Gate.io and 4.5 times more than Bitget—demonstrating its superior ability to capture market momentum. The exchange has maintained a consistent two-week listing cycle, ensuring that traders gain early access to promising assets before they reach mainstream markets.
This agility is particularly evident in key industry trends, as MEXC has emerged as the first major exchange to list tokens tied to the four dominant narratives of the current market: Meme, DeSci, AI Agent, and Celebrity Tokens.
A Leader in Early Listings
The TokenInsight report recognizes MEXC as a “Trend Capturer” for positioning its traders ahead of major market moves. By listing tokens early in their lifecycle, the exchange enables traders to capitalize on rapid growth opportunities.
For example, CHILLGUY was listed when its market cap was below $150 million and surged to $600 million within just ten days. MEXC’s reputation for early-market foresight has been reinforced by its rapid listing of high-performing tokens, including PNUT, CHILLGUY, AIXBT, BIO, RIFSOL, TRUMP, and VINE. Many of these tokens experienced significant price surges post-listing.
A standout case is TRUMP, which MEXC listed on January 18 at 03:20 UTC, just 2 hours and 20 minutes after its initial on-chain liquidity injection—well ahead of other exchanges, which didn’t follow until after 10:00 UTC. This ultra-fast turnaround underscores MEXC’s sharp market responsiveness, allowing traders to access high-momentum tokens before broader adoption.
Quality in On-Chain Listings
Unlike platforms that focus solely on token volume, MEXC takes a selective approach, prioritizing high-potential on-chain assets. TokenInsight’s data reveals that MEXC’s 82.46% conversion rate from on-chain listings to its primary spot market far surpasses Gate.io’s 11.76%, highlighting its ability to identify sustainable projects.
Largest Market Share and Top 5 CEX Ranking
With its ability to identify and list emerging trends faster than competitors, MEXC continues to solidify its position among top-tier exchanges. Beyond leading in new listings, CoinDesk data confirms that MEXC captured the largest market share among centralized exchanges in February 2025 and secured a top-five ranking based on overall market share.
The full report is available on TokenInsight’s official website.

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.
