Taostats Actions Puts Every btcli Transaction Into Simple Browser Forms

btcli works fine if you’re highly tech-savvy, but for everyone else, it can feel like a wall of flags and password prompts, with the constant worry that one wrong address or amount could cost real TAO.  Many users simply want to complete the action safely without memorizing flags.

Taostats has answered this need with Taostats Actions, which turns common btcli transactions into straightforward web forms. Users choose an action, fill in the required fields, review the exact on-chain call and estimated fee, then sign with their own wallet, keeping control of their keys throughout the process without sharing their seed phrase with Taostats.

Let’s be honest. btcli is a pain.

It was built for miners and technical subnet owners, people who live in a terminal.

Everyone else is stuck wondering “am I doing this right?” We all just want to get it done and keep our wallets safe.

So we put every btcli transaction in your…

Actions is available through Taostats Pro, with plans starting at $9 per month.

What You Can Do With Taostats Actions

1. Staking Without Guessing: Actions simplifies staking by using live data and clear TAO and alpha labels, helping users avoid selecting the wrong validator, subnet or amount.

a) Switch validators and move stake between subnets.

b) Transfer stake to a wallet, enable auto-staking or claim root emissions.

c) Lock stake for conviction.

d) Set maximum slippage for pool swaps.

2. Multisig and Proxies for Serious Holdings: For users managing shared funds or larger holdings, Actions supports multisig wallets and proxies. Multisig adds an approval process, while proxies let a separate wallet act within defined permissions.

Users can also enable MEV Shield to help protect supported transactions against front-running.

a) Create or import multisig wallets.

b) Propose, approve or cancel transactions.

c) Create proxies and add or remove them.

d) Keep the main key offline while a proxy performs permitted actions.

3. Key Swaps Without the Panic: Coldkey swaps let users move control to a new address through an announcement, a roughly five-day delay and final execution. Actions also supports hotkey swaps, subject to protocol rules.

a) Initiate and execute coldkey swaps.

b) Challenge unauthorized swaps or cancel your own where permitted.

c) Swap hotkeys and move associated stake or network identity where supported.

4. Validator and Subnet Settings Made Readable: Actions puts validator controls and subnet configuration into forms, making technical settings easier to manage without entering terminal commands.

a) Validator controls: Manage child keys, childkey take and validator take. Set Take also identifies whether a proposed change raises or lowers the rate.

b) Subnet operations: Register subnets, start emissions and change the owner hotkey.

c) Network parameters: Adjust registration burns, immunity periods, max UIDs, tempo, commit-reveal, Yuma3, liquid alpha and mechanism counts.

d) Economic settings: Configure owner cut, buy-and-burn and crowdloan funding.

e) Subnet identity: Manage identity details, symbols and alpha recycling or burning.

In total, subnet owners can manage 51 hyperparameters. TaoDaily has also covered Null Consensus and eTAO, two other developments in the Bittensor ecosystem.

5. Complicated Transactions Still Fit: Users who need more control can submit custom extrinsics through the Bring Your Own Transaction screen, which accepts transaction data encoded as hex.

a) Review custom transactions before signing.

b) Enable MEV Shield where supported.

c) Sign with your own wallet.

Do You Still Need btcli?

Actions offers a browser-based option for routine Bittensor operations, while the Bittensor Python SDK remains useful for scripts and server-side automation.

Taostats also provides network data, portfolio tracking, tax exports and developer APIs. It charges no platform fees for staking, swapping or transferring TAO.

By turning complex commands into reviewable forms, Taostats Actions makes Bittensor easier to manage while keeping users in control of their wallets.
