I agree. Unless and until BTC is widely accepted as currency by governments and businesses and people get paid in BTC, it’s not a “real” currency. Real currency is backed, BTC is backed by nothing other than people’s perception and conviction. I still think it’s a fascinating asset class and I hold 5% in my investment accounts and continually add as my overall investment portfolio grows.

Mentions:#BTC

Lots of garbage on all these threads. Try to understand the mechanics of the alleged manipulation before deciding one way or the other as to whether you believe it. Jane street is accused of purposefully dumping BTC price to trigger liquidation cascades and buy back lower. And doing it like every day. Anyone who watches charts has seen something that looks a lot like this. How does this work? It’s simple. Let’s say that I know if I sell $100 of BTC at 100k price, it will trigger a whale liquidation at $99,995 that sends the price to $99,750. Then I buy the same amount of BTC back at 99,750 costing me only $99.75. And I pocket the 25 cents if profit, minus a few cents for trading fees. Now imagine doing this with massive amounts of BTC and being able to swing the price by a lot more. And doing it at the same time every day so others can jump on the bandwagon and push it down even further. And even holding short positions behind the scenes 1) to hedge the longs you hold when you buy back and hold until tomorrow, and 2) because you are sucking the life out of the market and can cash in these shorts big later. #1 above is so important because if they are hedged, they can hold larger and larger long positions to fuck with the market. It’s not without risk, of course. But clearly it’s paying off for them so far. Why does this work? Because all you motherfuckers using high leverage on perpetual futures. If the leveraged liquidity wasn’t so rampant, this manipulation wouldn’t work. I can’t believe even after the tens of billions of liquidations in the past few month, it just keeps stacking up. blame Jane Street all you want. If this is true, they are pieces of shit who deserve the worst. However, in any market, someone will always take advantage of free money by preying on retail like this. Just be educated and stack BTC - in the long run, supply mechanics will inevitably push price back up. Last thing. I fucking wish saylor would sit on $5B of cash, wait for this fuckery, and then bankrupt these manipulative fucks by spot buying, single handedly forming a bottom, and sending the price to the moon via short squeeze. The generational play is literally right in front of him. Wish he would see it.

Mentions:#BTC

Yes, but liquidity cascades go both ways so we wouldn't get such violent upside swings either. That being said, I think there are some large capital allocators who are turned off by BTC's volatility so having fewer wild swings might entice more capital into the asset.

If it’s a small amount and you’re just testing the waters, Coinbase is fine. It’s simple, easy to use, and you’re less likely to mess something up while you’re still learning. Early on the biggest risk is usually user error, not the exchange itself. Once it becomes real money to you though, cold storage starts to make more sense. Not your keys not your coins exists for a reason. Exchanges can freeze accounts, pause withdrawals, or change terms. Also your actual BTC is not FDIC insured, only the cash balance is. Public company does not mean zero risk, it just means regulated risk. Plenty of regulated companies have still had issues. If you plan to hold long term and you actually believe in Bitcoin, self custody is part of that mindset. Best middle ground is buy on Coinbase and move to a hardware wallet once it’s an amount that would genuinely hurt to lose. Just make sure you understand backups and seed phrases properly. Losing access yourself is worse than trusting an exchange. I write a lot about building wealth with BTC and investing without being reckless. If you’re getting into it properly and want realistic takes, my newsletter’s in my profile.

It went out the window as soon as paper BTC became a thing - this is the 2nd edge of the sword people were worried about when ETF filings were getting approved. BTC on-chain however *is still decentralised.* Buy it on-chain, keep in cold storage, hold for <x> years, win.

Thanks for this discussion. All of us that understand the ‘Why’ and ‘How’ of BTC need to be able to explain it to others. It would be good if each of us could know our audience’s and be able to explain it to different groups at their level. I like how this explanation starts with pointing the flaws of fiat money. Over history there are many instances where Nation’s money became worthless and ‘the people’ suffered while the power were able to hedge. I think you could add to this explanation a bit about how BTC is built on a non-fungible mathematically logic which keeps it discreet. Then you need to mention a bit about the block-chain and its role as the ‘keeper of transactions’ so that we do not need a banker to manage.

Did you miss this part or something? > But either way, of course I agree it’s awful as a currency if the price is volatile in either direction. Which is exactly why I said crypto in general and also BTC aren’t good to use as a currency. In fact I said they are ‘horrible’. Like what are you even talking about? I never said that something that ‘rapidly declines’ in value is a good currency, I literally said the opposite if you read the above. /facepalm

Mentions:#BTC

This is extremely risky debt stacking, not just investing anymore. You’re basically multiplying exposure using loans on top of loans, and it only works as long as BTC keeps behaving nicely. One sharp drop, liquidity crunch, or delay in refinancing and you’re stuck with real debt that doesn’t care about crypto prices. If you’re going to keep using leverage anyway, at minimum keep loan to value conservative, assume a 40–50% BTC drawdown, and avoid relying on short term refinancing to stay solvent. Personally, I prefer platforms like Nexo because the LTV monitoring and risk controls are clearer and easier to manage.

Mentions:#BTC

Lots of people make money on the drop. This is a commodity, not a security, there is no "manipulation" beyond buying, selling, and duping folks with "news" about it. Besides, if you're in BTC and you make money on the drop you're probably buying more BTC to HODL somewhere in there.

If you are just dipping your toes in with a small amount, leaving it on Coinbase for a bit while you learn is pretty normal. It is simple and you do not have to worry about seed phrases on day one. That said, the whole point of BTC is self custody. Once the amount starts to matter to you, a hardware wallet is worth the learning curve. You do not have to go all in immediately. You can start small, move a test transaction, and get comfortable with it. Ask yourself one question. If Coinbase froze withdrawals tomorrow, would you be stressed? If the answer is yes, you probably already know which direction you lean.

Mentions:#BTC

Cold storage, always, always, always. Just don't f it up. Start with small amounts until you're perfect with it. Leave your BTC on Coinbase and you'll be sorry. Switch to River or Strike. Coinbase is a sh|t-coin casino. Avoid them like d'ck cancer.

Post is by: Capable-Inspector660 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1rfa1wm/ha_senso_giocare_su_ethbtc_per_accumulare_più/ Ciao, sono nuovo nelle crypto e nel trading. Sono giovane e col semplice desiderio di aumentare anche di poco il patrimonio invece che tenerlo fermo sul conto. Credo nelle crypto e al momento ho \~400€ in BTC e \~600 in ETH (stake). Vedo il primo più come una riserva di valore e il secondo come un investimento equity style perché credo nel progetto e in una futura esplosione di prezzo. Guardando un po’ i vari indici su kraken pro mi sono fissato con lo spot ETH/BTC e ho pensato: ha senso trasformare BTC in ETH quando il rapporto è basso e fare il contrario (ETH>>>BTC) quando si alza? In questo modo userei la forza di uno per compreare più dell’altro e sfruttare l’oscillazione del valore per ricomprare più dell’uno per comprare più dell’altro. Sostanzialmente giocare sulla fluttuazione del rapporto fra prezzi per piano piano aumentare la quantità di coins sia di uno che dell’altro senza immetterci un euro. So di non avere scoperto l’avqua calda e che questa cosa probabilmente la fanno già tutti nel trading. Ma essendo nuovo ho dei dubbi su quando effettivamente riesca ad aumentare il capitale di crypto in questo modo. Non so calcolare (più che altro per pigrizia) quando potrei guadagnare con sto giochetto. Per dire: una settimana fa il rapporto stava a 0.028, ora è a 0,0303. Aveva senso convertire BTC in ETH prima e riconvertire ETH in BTC ora? e poi, a fronte di un nuovo abbassamento, ripetere il giochino. Cosa ne pensate? Ha senso o è una perdita di tempo? (considerate che non convertirei ogni volta tutto il capitale. starei sui 100/200 euro di monete da convertire) *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Hi, ATH buyer here! I started DCAing in at around $109k because that's when I learned about bitcoin vs. FIAT. I'm not worried, I'm not treating BTC as a stock, it's to go against fiat. I'll keep buying at it's next ATH also

Mentions:#ATH#BTC

That 53M number smells like marketing math to me. Here's what they're probably counting: \- Someone who panic-bought $100 during the 2021 peak and sold at a loss \- College kid with $20 in BTC from a sign-up bonus \- Your uncle who "invested" in 2017 and can't remember his password \- Same person with accounts on Coinbase, Binance, and Cash App or any other exchange or something like that.. The actual reality in the US, is maybe 1 in 15-20 people actively hold Bitcoin. Not 1 in 6.

Yeah, cross-asset correlation has gotten much tighter whenever macro or big AI headlines hit risk sentiment. It feels less like “crypto vs stocks” now and more like one liquidity regime where BTC just has higher beta.

Congrats! That's a solid win, and more importantly, you actually took profit instead of riding it back down like so many people do. The 'what if I held longer' thing will haunt you forever. But you made money, learned the cycles, and now you're back in with experience. That puts you ahead of 90% of people. For the new buyers reading this: The key takeaway isn't just 'hold longer', it's understanding that Bitcoin moves in cycles. \- Buy during fear (like 2022-2023 bear market) \- Hold through doubt (the long boring middle) \- Take some profit during euphoria (don't need to catch the exact top) \- Rinse and repeat For some people, their strategy is different, they stack BTC directly AND mine Bitcoin. Why? Mining gives you ongoing accumulation regardless of price action. You're cost-averaging in real-time (mining sats every day). If BTC dips, you're still stacking... if it rips, your mined BTC appreciates Diversifies your entry points. This is not for everyone (requires cheap power and dealing with hardware), but it's another way to build a position beyond just buying and holding. Either way - welcome back.

So…is BTC dead or “long-living”? 🤔

Mentions:#BTC

Great insight there, my one question though (playing devils advocate) is - when these wealthy people want to move their money across borders anytime, this is only really useful if they can use/spend their BTC like a proper currency. We are so far off that i feel and unless they offramp into fiat in a country that doesn’t impact capital gains tax or similar, what’s the real incentive of doing so?

Mentions:#BTC

Right before BTC options and futures trading was approved on the CBOE back in 2017 I wrote my doctoral dissertation about how large hedge funds and other types of companies were going to be doing this sort of shit.. its kind of nice I guess to see that it looks like I was pretty much right about it all.

Mentions:#BTC

Agreed with diminishing returns but diminishing corrections is tbd as BTC is still a risk on asset class and is now positively correlated with equity markets, where a dip in equity markets could cause further downside on BTC price movement.

Mentions:#BTC

Great insight thanks, and I think where I was coming from on this more so, is that the incremental increase in BTC’s price each cycle is reducing each time. No one is likely even gonna 4x or more their investment in one cycle alone, so the appeal to new investors is lower and less enticing. Feels like the ETFs dipped their toe during the uptrend in price but will be way more cautious this time round. Again just my slightly uneducated take, but I don’t think we see the same level of absolute greed that we’ve seen before but as we all know - no one knows..!

Mentions:#BTC

Miners don’t sell BTC reserves to survive, they reduce the rate of mining if they aren’t making a profit which reduces supply. The whole point of the mining is to regulate price fluctuations to some extend.

Mentions:#BTC

Idk there’s more and more big players jumping in. Institutions are a going to take several years to get all settled in, but they’re laying the groundwork. I’ve lived long enough to see the price of everything goes down when measured in Bitcoin, inflation is that bad. Been stuck on this math: 7.9B global population, 21m BTC evenly distributed = 0.0027BTC each (under $200 right now). I know some is lost, not everyone has internet, it’s not all mined, just roll with it for now. 22m Americans own Bitcoin. 24m Americans are Millionaires, out of 80m Millionaires, globally. So if these guys get tired of dealing with real estate (renters, taxes, money tied up), realize there *really is only so many* Bitcoin, and want to take their money anywhere anytime across borders… each one of them have to essentially buy their little 0.0026 BTC from me, every time I surpass that number. So when Strategy is just hoovering them at double the rate they can be mined, massive institutions getting in position… I’m pretty comfy just getting my DCAs in. They’ll want it, they just don’t know it yet.

Genuine question: What is there to "learn" about BTC except the basic concept that anyone with some basic logic can understand within 2 hours? Of course there is a lot to learn about the current financial system, but that's independent of BTC as of now.

It’s amazing how the Fear & Greed Index works, those fearful now and coming down from $100K will be the same ones will FOMO in again as the index turns to Greed. There mind will tell them to jump on the bandwagon again for fear of being left behind. Their fear of it dropping and/or taking profits (greed) will mean their late selling, because it’s human nature. On the other hand, many in the ETF spaces are experienced investors, and they will set limits for selling and buying. This unfortunately causes the domino effect, especially when it’s dropping, so that the legs of the drop triggers cascading selling without them thinking too much. Yet growth will continue to cause FOMO, and greed will attract many of these ETF buyers if the analysts are Bullish on how far can BTC reach in the next Bull Market. Just some musings from a random internet stranger 🤷‍♀️

Well unless you are developing protocols there is nothing you can do except wait for the commodities markets to crash again and for capital to rotate back into BTC. Mind you BTC is here to stay because they need something by which they can easily offer as collateral. Rehypothecating a boat or a house or a car is very difficult, expensive and legally fraught considering inspections, laws both local and international, insurance, inspections of the assets and so on. Whereas BTC is instant, borderless and universal.

Jane Street may affect “how” Bitcoin trades—spreads, liquidity, hedging pressure, basis dynamics—especially around ETFs. But the idea that *one* market maker is the main reason behind BTC crash is a stretch without hard evidence

You won, well done. You won, because others lost. I too won as well. I mined bitcoin in 2014/2015 and in 2017/2018 sold enough to pay for the miners, and the electricity and kept everything else vowing not to touch it till retirement - which if it was still worth anything would be a good time. In 2022 I sold almost all of it. I bought some things I needed, paid the capital gains tax, and retired. The little I kept I divided by value into XRP and BTC which I will only ever sell if I need it between now and when I get the final call home. For me to do that, many others had to loose a substantial amount of money. I think about that a lot. It is a zero sum game. One of my mates - the guy who got me into crypto in the first place, was even earlier than me - he got in so early he mined 40 BTC on a shitty old computer in the early days. He blew most of it on one holiday when BTC hit US$200. He saved a few coins but his hands were weak and eventually sold the last few when it hit around $20k and this let him sort his kids through college, but its all gone now, and he still works 9-5. It is not as easy to win big now. The wild days are over. The massive growth over 10 years is not there unless you take insane trading risks. If you buy now, to get the equivalent results I did you'll need to sell when it gets to around US$1m. I can't see that happening unless its through some kind of global hyperinflation and people somehow start throwing increasingly worthless paper into BTC thinking its safe like real precious metals or something. Today's HODLers are taking bigger chances with bigger stakes. You have to wear the risk that the system fails - and the longer it drags on, the chance of that increase. It could fail to practically zero for lots of reasons: Maybe Satoshi Nakomoto didn't burn his keys and his blocks suddenly start moving somehow, or, maybe so much crime is uncovered publicly that was underpinned by BTC that the exchanges all blackball it - massive loss of value overnight. Think MtGOX on a massive scale. Hodl, but be prepared to loose it all.

30% LTV is smart, gives you a ton of cushion if BTC dips further. The key is making sure you have cash flow to service the loan if it goes against you for a while. I've used Nexo for this exact strategy. Their LTV requirements are flexible and you can borrow stablecoins against BTC at decent rates. Just watch the interest, it adds up if you're holding the position long term.

Mentions:#BTC

Nexo should probably be on this list honestly. They've been around since 2018 and offer BTC-backed loans starting at 0% APR if you're in their loyalty tier, otherwise around 6.9-13.9% depending on LTV ratio. No minimum loan amount which is nice if you're not looking to borrow $10k+. The main trade-off is it's custodial, so you're trusting Nexo with your collateral. But they've been pretty solid on that front, no rehypothecation if you opt for their Flex terms.

>I reckon there’s a large proportion of people who have quite frankly just ‘had enough’ of the BTC ride.. Weak hands will leave, strong HODL gang stays. This is happening all the time. You probably bought sats in 2020 from someone selling at ATH ($20k at that time). I believe many of them bought back at a higher price again. **Everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve.**

I feel this is being spun into something it isnt, personally, I cannot see any pattern of dips at 10 AM in BTC/USD (what is the timezone people are referring to?), secondly, there are alot of other patterns worth pointing out, like the sunday hikes when Saylor buys and the "market makers" pump during low liquidity hours on weekends. Thirdly, isnt this lawsuit about an incident that took place years ago? To me it look more like one marketmaker throwing shit at another for ruining theyr plays, to me the whole market is rigged at this point.

I DCA 8.3% of my monthly paycheck into BTC and the same amount goes into my ETF Portfolio as well as my pension fund. In Dips like these, I tend to 2x it if possible or even a little more. Gone are the days of "if it falls below XY I will buy a large sum at once"....

That screenshot is fake. The person you sent the bitcoin to is a scammer and the scammer sent you a photoshopped screenshot. The transaction fee for that transaction was only 7050 sats and that transaction included 20 outputs. 19 of those outputs was bitcoin going to 19 other Binance customers that withdraw bitcoin around the same time as you. And the total transaction fee was 7050 sats, which is currently worth only $4.88 You can view the transaction here: https://mempool.space/tx/b5c597cac341c982205f4d8a13a830ec9648ea31028418c345f7c901d7bd0268 You should also be aware that exchanges get to choose how much they want to charge their customers for withdrawing bitcoin from their platform. This fee is referred to as a bitcoin withdrawal fee. Some exchanges choose not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee at all (meaning it's free to withdraw bitcoin). [Swan Bitcoin](https://www.swanbitcoin.com/) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee. [Strike](https://strike.me/) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee if you choose the slowest option. [Cash App](https://cash.app/bitcoin) chooses not to charge a bitcoin withdrawal fee if you withdraw 0.001 BTC or more and you choose the standard speed option. [River](https://river.com/) chooses to give their customers one free bitcoin withdrawal per month.

THE MINER WHO FORGOT TO PAY THEMSELVES ​While Bitcoin is often described as a perfect mathematical machine, it relies on miners to correctly "claim" their rewards. On December 30, 2017, a miner successfully solved Block 501,726, but they committed a historic error: they left the "outputs" of the coinbase transaction blank. ​The obscure technical detail? Bitcoin’s consensus rules specify the maximum amount a miner can claim (block subsidy plus transaction fees), but they do not require the miner to claim anything at all. In this specific block, the miner successfully performed the proof-of-work but failed to include an address to receive the 12.5 BTC subsidy and the associated fees. ​As a result, those 12.5 BTC—worth over $1.1 million in today's market of February 2026—were never created. They didn't go to a "burn" address or get stuck in a wallet; they simply remained unissued, forever reducing the total circulating supply of Bitcoin. This remains the only time in history a miner successfully found a block but walked away with exactly zero reward due to a coding oversight in their own custom mining software.

MSTR always feels like turning the volatility knob up to max. You’re basically getting leveraged exposure to BTC plus the added layer of corporate strategy and market sentiment. That can work great on the way up, but it cuts both ways fast. The short interest angle is interesting because squeezes can create crazy moves short term. The question is whether you’re playing a trade or holding it like a long term proxy for bitcoin. Those are two very different mindsets. Personally I try to keep it simple and just hold spot. Less exciting, but also easier to sleep at night. Are you looking at this as a quick momentum play or a longer conviction bet?

It’s probably not an immediate risk, but it’s a long-term credibility overhang until migration paths are clearer. BTC still has time, yet planning for quantum-resistant signatures before panic mode seems like the rational approach.

Wow, this cohort of Bitcoiners are such weak sauce. Gotta find a boogeyman to explain away the old BTC whales activated and dumped on them. Whatever it is, crypto is crypto. Bitcoin can’t escape it. Alts got VCs/devs to dump on you. BTC has an old holder base cashing out. Ppl blamed market makers’ “manipulation” for alts underperformance. They all ignore the fact, market makers can manipulate shit if they don’t have coins sold to them by previous holders. And Bitcoiners laughed at alt bagholders’ cope. But it is pretty crazy, they can’t see through the same problem when it happens to their bag.

The fact you put nearly 50k in Bitcoin's infancy is legend status already, then to hold to 20k (half million) is also amazing! It so easy for all of us looking back now; I turned down 1500 BTC when it was $3 per coin - at least you saw a huge profit.

For 10+ years, stick to strong fundamentals — real utility, active development, and clear positioning. BTC and ETH are solid core holds. From your list, projects like AVAX, Cardano, Chainlink, and XRP are often viewed as long-term infrastructure plays — but they should be smaller allocations compared to your core. You can also look into projects focused on compliance and real-world use, like **RYO**, which aim to build practical infrastructure rather than just hype. Main rule: size positions so you can survive volatility and hold through full cycles.

Looks solid for a first move! Weight BTC and ETH heavier, then spread smaller amounts across SOL, AVAX, XRP, and LINK and add gradually over time.

Put it all on black first, this way you can HODL double the BTC, and if it goes down 50% first, youd be able to sleep at night because youd be right back at base.

Man, BTC is just an asset, which involves the crypto currencie itself, but thats more like an excuse, no one uses BTC like money, all the cryptos bros are buying because they're expecting to more people go so the price in the future will pump that's all. If you are doing "Day trading" you're going to lose money, you can DCA or buy on the "Dips", the thing is no one knows which is the "dip" of BTC, because is all a narrative about expectations to be one million dolar later. But maybe you can expect 62k to 54k (BTC/USD)... to be the "dip". So you're free to buy in those range, maybe tomorrow is on 69k because i don't know, the market is pretty much emotional.

If 21 million BTC flows to you because you ‘treat it best’ (buy it dinner?), and the masses don’t want your BTC, how much do you think your BTC will be worth?

Mentions:#BTC

A 7–8% bounce after months of downside isn’t a trend reversal, it’s volatility doing what it does. The real question is whether this move is reclaiming higher time frame structure or just squeezing late shorts. If we’re still below major breakdown levels, this is chop territory and grid/DCA both make sense depending on risk tolerance. But if BTC starts holding above prior resistance and funding flips aggressively positive, then it becomes a different conversation. Personally, I’d rather accumulate into weakness and reduce into strength than chase green candles. In this kind of market, patience usually outperforms prediction.

Mentions:#BTC

It's been securitized. That's gonna need to be worked through before there is any meaningful move to the upside. As an example, people claim the BTC will max out at 21 million Bitcoin. Not true. The use of derivatives actually means that there is an unlimited amount of Bitcoin in the system. Banks getting involved and the creation of Crypto ETF and the financial instruments these companies create to make money from the rest of us is gonna muck things up for a while. https://youtu.be/zaZ97BcGnCA?si=4Nxr5xLmdGmqC7c5 Check it out.

In a word "yes" Also further to this BTC passing a majority liquidation area for shorts at around 74-75k there will be massive forced buying of BTC, this would trigger a MSTR pump past liquidation zones also, when this happens it triggers a reinforcing reaction as when MSTR shorts get liquidated the spikes in price actually raise cash for MSTR to buy more BTC. Once the pump starts it will be ON!

Bro. As a stranger who cares, do not do this. Not now. If you want to accumulate crypto at the very least wait until the 4 year cycle lows around October, and even then I’d consider majority going into BTC and Eth as most alts aren’t ever going to recover. I don’t need and won’t ask you for any money but if u want to talk shop hop into my DMs, if you do it now or in next couple months be prepared to stomach 50% drawdown. Meanwhile if you wait the same money will be 100% up by time it hits this level. Lock in. Goodluck

Hello and good morning. Hard to say because the right answer is different for every individual. I would say start slow and methodically. Get comfortable with how BTC works, storing it, sending it, checking the network activity, etc. Make sure you have other assets and are wisely allocating. Start with an allocation target, say 5% of your net worth, and establish a plan to buy monthly to reach that! Good luck and godspeed.

Mentions:#BTC

should allocate it to BTC? YES All at once? NO you could do 75% a BTC etf like FBTC then for draw downs add some non correlated assets that are STACKED on top of bitcoin. $RSSX is Sp500, Gold, and Bitcoin all in one. $BTGD is bitcoin and Gold. $OOQB is Nasdaq and Bitcoin. $OOSB is Sp500 and Bitcoin. That way you are still living on a bitcoin standard but you get diversification...in a way that you wont regret if if Bitcoin runs as you'll still benefit from it's upside while having some cushion on drawdowns Source? I made it all up (jk those are real tickers, DYOR)

I agree the mining industry doesn’t have much effect on bitcoin price. I also agree that fewer people remain when they lose money. But others join all the time…. As I said there can be short term profitability, but in the long run, on average, I think miners tend to lose money. The pie doesn’t stay the same time. The coinbase halves every 4 years, and the price of BTC can drop 50% from the time you order your gear in October until you start mining in February.
