Academy and User Education
DraftStatus: Draft Version: 0.1.0 Last Updated: 2026-05-17 Owner: Axodus Mining / Academy
Purpose
Mining is often misunderstood as passive income. Academy should teach users that mining depends on technical, operational, market, energy, and regulatory factors.
Education Topics
Topics include Proof-of-Work, hashrate, pools, block rewards, network difficulty, gross versus net rewards, energy cost, hardware cost, depreciation, uptime, cooling, maintenance, validator operations, slashing, payout rules, dashboard estimates, wallet security, pool credentials, jurisdiction, taxes, and no financial advice.
Access Education Requirements
Educational content should include basic disclosures. Calculators and dashboards require estimate disclaimers. Mining subscriptions require risk acknowledgement, payout rule acknowledgement, and no-profit-guarantee confirmation. Hosted, hashrate, validator, or delegation products may require Academy modules or Proof of Knowledge if governance defines it.
User Confirmation Fields
Fields may include user ID or wallet, product ID, education completion, disclosure version, reward variability confirmation, estimate disclaimer confirmation, cost and fee confirmation, market risk confirmation, payout rule confirmation, slashing confirmation if relevant, and timestamp.
