If you are doing this, how is it favoring you?

Some hardcore crypto miners in my state are into BTC mining for the past years now and I noticed that they don't mine in a bear market, they always buy their asic miners after Bitcoin halving or a month to Bitcoin mining and ride the miners through the bull market, and once Bitcoin start making a turn back in value they start selling their asic miners.

My question. Is are people doing this? And at the same time favours them? Can you opt in and out of Bitcoin mining using bear market to get cheap asic and mine to make profits until the bulls are tired and it's bears turn to take over and you sell your miners..

They have been doing this for a long time but I am wondering how this is a smart idea because I always advice those that want to mine Bitcoin to never sell their miners in a bear market and that they should keep mining and store their Bitcoin.
I think the strategy that you mentioned is a common practice among some cryptocurrency miners. By buying ASIC miner after a Bitcoin halving or when the market is in a bearish trend, miners can obtain mining equipment at a lower cost, while also benefiting from lower competition in the mining space. They then use the miners during the bullish market to generate profits and sell them when the market turns bearish, potentially making a profit from the sale of the ASICs.

As for your advice to keep mining and store Bitcoin during a bear market, that can also be a sound strategy, as it allows miners to accumulate Bitcoin at lower cost, potentially increasing profits in the long run. the choice of strategy will depend on a miner's individual risk tolerance, financial situation, and market analysis.

Those people are firm believers of short term profits. In bull markets when prices are going higher they buy the miners and they will buy when prices of Bitcoin go high and difficulty get a little low. Their main goal is to cover up their initial cost during those times and earn as much profit as possible during the bull run. When they cover up most of their initial costs then if the bear market starts they sell the miners and earn some extra profits.

Their main motive is not to add extra-processing power to Bitcoin mining but to earn with the mined coins during the bull run. Their mind is not into long term holding as they want good profits in short durations. They will save the earned money for the next bull run where they will be able to buy more advanced miners that provide more processing power and higher energy efficiency. They will repeat the process over and over.
