Everyone in W-space will gank a mining op if they see one, so when mining, always make sure that there are no incoming wormholes in your system, always watch directional, or even have a scout at any wormhole exit. You <s>cannot</s> can mine aligned (this does take a bit of planning, but if you spend a lot of time in the ore sites, this technique (to be added) might be useful), and you can make it a bit harder for someone to find you. As of the Odyssey update, asteroid fields are anomalies, showing up on normal scanner without probes. They can be warped to immediately upon arrival in system by a hostile ship. To be safe(er), do not mine without a picket on the WH entrances. Keep an eye out for new signatures that might be new WH connections. Try not to use jetcans for mining, as they can be bookmarked to provide warp-ins on you. Haul in cheap ~~industrial ships~~, as often as possible. Don't use an Orca for picking up ore. Orcas draw attention of gankers. Warp out at any sign of unknown ships and probes on directional. Better to be safe than dead.

What's dangerous about PI, you ask? Well, managing PI itself doesn't involve any risk (yet), but hauling the goods can be tricky.

Constantly use the Directional Scanner, You have to assume that you are never alone in W-space. Always watch for hostile ships. Be prepared to run for your life. Don't slow down your ~~industrial ships~~ by fitting cargo expanders, fit nanofibers instead. They will align faster. Fit Warp Core Stabs, they will get somewhat immune to Warp Disruptors, and if you can, use [[Hauling|Transport ships]], fly cloaky, cloaky is safe. Never stay at the [[Colony Management#Interplanetary Logistics|Customs Office]] longer than you have to.

=== Rolling Wormholes ===

Rolling a wormhole is the act of intentionally collapsing a wormhole. This is done by sending large amounts of mass (in the form of either multiple Battleships with Higgs Anchor Rigs; Cruisers, Heavy Interdiction Cruisers, or ~~Industrial ships~~ with 100MN afterburners; or capital ships) through the wormhole.

Static wormholes are often rolled in the hope that the wormhole replaces it is "better". What does better mean? It depends. It may be that the previous wormhole was "EOL" (End of Life) or "crit" (critical) and you are looking for a new wormhole that you can safely move ships through without getting stuck on the other side. It could be that you're looking for a K-space connection that is closer to a particular system. Or maybe you're just looking for a wormhole with a higher chance of PvP or PvE. Continuously rolling a wormhole to find one that matches certain criteria is known as "Rage Rolling".
