Swiss Bitcoin Academy

What is this bot?

A Bitcoin learning assistant that answers questions strictly from a fixed, indexed corpus of sources. It does not rely on general internet search or unstated background knowledge. If the sources do not contain enough information, it will say so.

What sources does the bot use?

The indexed corpus currently includes:

Each answer is derived only from retrieved excerpts within this corpus.

What does "context" mean?

When you ask a question:

1. The system retrieves relevant excerpts from the indexed corpus.
2. Those excerpts form the context.
3. The answer is generated strictly from that context.
4. The retrieved excerpts are displayed below each answer.

Why does the bot sometimes refuse to answer?

The bot may decline to provide a full answer when:

• The corpus does not contain sufficient information.
• A comparison is not supported symmetrically by the sources.
• The available material is philosophical or normative rather than technical.

Refusal is intentional and preserves source integrity.

Does the bot always give the "true" answer?

It guarantees internal consistency with its sources, not universal truth. Every claim in an answer is traceable to specific retrieved excerpts. It does not guarantee external correctness. Verification remains the responsibility of the reader.

What is an execution receipt?

Each answer includes an execution record that contains:

• Retrieved chunk identifiers
• Model configuration
• Deterministic and non-deterministic stages
• Cryptographic hashes of inputs and outputs

This allows inspection of how the answer was produced.

Does the bot remember previous questions?

No. This bot does not retain conversational memory. Each question is processed independently using only the retrieved sources.

Does this system learn from user questions?

No. The bot does not automatically learn or modify its corpus based on user interactions. Corpus updates are deliberate and versioned.

Is this financial or investment advice?

No. The bot explains Bitcoin concepts as described in its sources. It does not provide investment, legal, or financial advice.

How will this system evolve?

The corpus and behavior evolve through deliberate updates based on identified gaps and validated needs. Changes are versioned and documented.
