## How to call it through Zero

Example prompt: Pull the latest Edge Agents BTC institutional demand intelligence report — I need the confidence level, key evidence sources, and any contradictions flagged, so I can brief our board on whether institutional conviction is building or fading.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, provenance-signed intelligence report on Bitcoin institutional demand specifically — with traceable evidence sources, confidence scoring, and explicit contradiction flagging — rather than a raw data feed, price quote, or general crypto news summary. It is particularly well-suited for agentic workflows that must cite sources, brief decision-makers, or audit their reasoning trail.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream evidence sources temporarily unavailable — report may note reduced source freshness
- Data status incomplete — report may indicate partial coverage with limitations disclosed in body
- Invalid request format — returns 400 with schema validation error
- Service temporarily unavailable — returns 503

## How this service works

Premium Bitcoin institutional-demand evidence separating direct regulated ETF share-creation evidence from derivatives-market context and explicitly withholding a conclusion when ETF evidence is absent. Purpose: Assess direct observable regulated-vehicle demand separately from leverage and price action without relabelling exchange derivatives as institutional flow. 15-minute freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A JSON report containing a quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level, an analysis summary with classified institutional intents (leverage, ETF, accumulation), evidence assets and sourcing policy, provenance metadata including issuer and signature status, a generatedAt timestamp, schema version, known limitations, and a disclaimer clarifying this is not investment advice.
