Vault Schedule
One vault per month
BIMA deploys a new vault at the start of every month, each with its own deposit window, its own 12-month term, its own maturity date and its own strike levels.

Later vaults follow the same pattern. Live dates and the current open vault are published in the app.
Each vault is independent
Vaults are risk-isolated: they do not share collateral, obligations or counterparty exposure. What happens in one does not affect another.
For you, that means:
Your term is fixed by the vault you joined.
Your maturity date is exactly twelve months from your vault's start.
Your strike levels belong to your vault. They are set when your window closes and reflect market conditions on that date.
Two people depositing a month apart can hold materially different protection and cap levels. That is a function of Bitcoin's option market on each pricing date, not a change in the product.
The seven-day window matters
Deposits are only accepted during the first seven days of the month. Miss it, and the next opportunity is the following month's vault with a different maturity and different strikes.
Once the window closes:
the vault is sealed and the collar is placed,
no further deposits are accepted,
no withdrawals are possible until maturity and redemption.
Running more than one vault
Nothing stops you depositing into several monthly vaults. Some users deposit a portion each month so that collateral matures on a rolling basis and strike levels are averaged across different market conditions, rather than committing everything at one point in the cycle.
Each deposit is a separate position with its own shares, strikes, maturity and redemption window.
