DCA method

[retreat]

The option to invest is for people who can save some part of their income. There is no need to consider saving if all you earn is what you need to survive. However, one can still increase his earnings by acquiring skills that can make him earn higher or seek other means of getting extra income.

-snip-

Investment must be with full awareness and control over one's finances. If they still have bills and needs to be met, then they must prioritize them and postpone their investment first. However, if they can allocate some of their money for investment, then they can do DCA to buy Bitcoin slowly in small amounts. Increasing income or reducing the amount of expenses can be an option for them to invest, but it must be done consistently to achieve maximum results.

Since I introduced the DCA method to them, it was a game changer too them,
DCA is the best way for low income earners to acquire more Bitcoin.

I don't know if anyone else has different opinion about it?

DCA is probably the best way to accumulate bitcoins for those who have low income especially because it makes you manage your money in a different way: if every month you know that, for example, 15% of your salary gets automatically invested in bitcoin, you are left with less money, therefore you need to find a way to better manage your finances, and usually that means spending less money on useless stuff. It's an actual life-changing lesson.

In as much as taken care of personal expenses can be very important and essential over prioritizing it can also make a lot of people not to become investment oriented such that instead of curtailing or cutting down budgets they will increase to maintain or upgrade lifestyles that might not be optimally necessary, but yeah undoubtedly people can never have the same mentality and that is life generally. However, one could actually cut down budgets in such a way that it will not have negative impact on their living expenses, for example one buy a less expensive car instead of an expensive one, go on a vacation once in a while rather than usual, eat out side once in a while than usual maintain things that can still be maintained instead of going for a new one, just to achieve this future plans(investment).

You have no excuse not to acquire Bitcoin, this is one of my most used word when
 discussing with my friends that have
 high interest in crypto, but don't have capital too buy.

It is true that there is no excuse not to acquire bitcoin, but you should also consider if your friend has a steady means of income. Because most time we might have that impression to accumulate but don't have a reasonable souce of income to back up the motivation. And surely if such person doesn't have a work to help his accumulation journey, it is best he don't even try investing because it will be bad to invest today and sell tomorrow which is almost less than no investment. Try as much as possible to advise your friend to get something doing sothat from hence he can be accumulating within his capacity or the amount he can comfortably invest weekly. You can't use your slogan for who doesn't have money to invest.

Your statement looks pretty much like a cook up story, you have just said your friend doesn't have money to invest and now it's a life changer.. really? But if what you said Is true, kudos to you.

Everyone can invest with different methods and strive to achieve the desired result. DCA is a method that allows people with low income to invest. In this method, investing a percentage of your income is very effective because when your income increases, the amount you invest will also increase.

When the investor invests without straining his economic situation, he will see that his investment increases after a while and will see the benefits of regular investment. The important thing here is to make this investment regularly and not give up.

[rachael9385]

Accumulating Bitcoin weekly is part of the easy way to gain some Bitcoin knowledge, how to buy Bitcoin is also another knowledge that a Bitcoin newbie will learn and how to send and how to check fees interns of making a transaction. Mostly when he wants to transfer the Bitcoin that he bought from an exchange to a wallet, he would be able to understand that because of the little transaction fees that he would pay million reduce the Bitcoin he's sending in some cents.
DCA is free to everyone both new investors and old investors we just have to buy consistent in other to meet up our Bitcoin portfolio in future.

You are right by  saying DCA strategy is probably the best way to accumulate Bitcoin because that is the strategy am using to accumulate Bitcoin and it has really helped me alot because it has helped me to accumulate more Bitcoin in different price level even when it is dip BUT I don't agree with you if you say that it is for those who have low income because both the rich and the poor can use the DCA strategy it all depends on the strategy an investor chooses to use when accumulating Bitcoin.

Why should it be shown to those with low incomes as the right people to use the DCA method. I don't agree with that because everyone has the right to use the DCA strategy, even those who have a lot of money also do DCA, so it's not just those with low incomes. As I understand, of course investing with the DCA strategy is the best, meaning that if we are not good at analyzing charts then DCA is very suitable. And also with DCA we can get a great opportunity to execute bitcoin at low prices because we routinely make purchases every week.

I think you are going the other way in this thread because of your knowledge of Bitcoin. Yes, that is not wrong because someone must first learn about Bitcoin and at the same time they can also do DCA along with their knowledge process on Bitcoin. Yes, of course ordinary people need prior knowledge about the investments they make because it can increase their insight into what they want to plan.

[Xril2024]

DCA system plays a very important role for people who have limited income.  Because low-income people have very little capital where they struggle to meet their basic needs.  At the end of the expenses they can invest very little savings as capital. Thus DC can invest in small amount of BTC using this method.  This is how low income people plan their future.

[Obulis]

I can see a lot of praise of DCA here.

People have to definitely praise. DCA is the best strategy that any investor can apply. It doesn’t matter what your income is or how much money you have. Regularly investing in Bitcoins will give good returns in the long run. People are still praising it because it has comparatively low risk. It’s like investing in mutual funds but not actually investing in stocks. In a fixed period of time, you buy the coins and hold them for a certain amount of time. Definitely, after a good amount of time, you get the profits; hence, many investors love this strategy.

I disagree with most of your narratives  but Yeah DCA strategy can be very good with consistency but I don't think one should be prioritizing profitablity when you are still in your accumulation journey, since there is no guarantee of being in profits just as a result of how long you hold your coin. Secondly I don't think it is ok for anyone to have a fixed period or limited  timeline to buy and holding your coin since there can be possibility or senerio case where the price can go down such that you might not be in profit at the time you planned or fixed to sell.

For me all I think everyone should just buy and remove any strategy of calculating the price difference although indeed there must be time that the price will dip so down but even at that too it shouldn't be as discouragement but used as a wonderful opportunity to buy because I believe the best time to buy is even during the dip since you are holding your coins for a long period and with DCA strategy you just get to buy no matter the price situation of Bitcoin and reason being you know that no matter what Bitcoin is valued to still go up in the future so the best you could do is just fastened your seat belt and continue buying till when the price is situation for you.

 Very much important to focus on the journey instead of being carried away by the result (profit).
Looking at and thinking of DCA, also looking at and thinking of money in the bank!! I believe DCA would probably do better than money in the bank, making it a real opportunity.

DCA doesn't only work well for low income earners, high income earners still make use of the DCA method to increase the quantity of their already bought Bitcoin along the year. Nations and institutions like microstrategy uses the DCA method not because they're not financially strong enough to lump sum but basically because it's through the DCA methord that they can comfortably continue buying Bitcoin while still sorting out most of her national and institutional financial needs.

For those with limited income who are at the entry level of thier Bitcoin accumilation, it still works well for them and enable them to start buying Bitcoin even when they are still learning a lot of the basic details about Bitcoin investment. While you consider buying Bitcoin with DCA methord as someone that's of low income class, your primary medium that's assisting you built your portfolio needs to be identified and taken seriously. If you're performing a task that's paying you in BTC or you're doing a regular job where you're taking out a portion from it for your DCA, you have to identify it and ensure you don't joke with that source knowing that once you have issue with it you've jopardized your investment plan.

DCA is for everyone, anyone who intends to invest in bitcoin for the long term and does not want to be under too much pressure due to market volatility. No matter how much income you have, as long as you have faith and can hold bitcoin for the long term, DCA is always the strategy that gives the best results. Moreover, bitcoin is unpredictable, by using DCA we can reduce the risk as well as increase the chances of getting bigger profits.

In addition, there are many things we need to care about in life, from daily living expenses to savings for emergencies...so using DCA will help us not to have to stress about money.

[Taricoins]

It’s a solid strategy for anyone who wants to build up their crypto stash over time, especially if cash flow is tight.

Well it's definitely a good and maybe the best strategy for newbie investor like myself although am holding back because the steady income isn't there and I really don't want to start something that would now make me touch my investment and I know buying Bitcoin is never too late so when I get things started up I will indeed start with the DCA strategy for my long term investment and I would also recommend anyone who is looking to buying and hold Bitcoin for long to actually start with the DCA strategy although if the money is readily available then buying Lum sum too isn't actually a bad idea at all.

The option to invest is for people who can save some part of their income. There is no need to consider saving if all you earn is what you need to survive. However, one can still increase his earnings by acquiring skills that can make him earn higher or seek other means of getting extra income.

It is predicted that the price of Bitcoin will keep increasing in the future but it will always be affordable since one can buy in bits. Even if the price gets to $100k in the future, an investor can still decide to buy a unit that he can afford using DCA. 

For me I think saving part of your income to invest in bitcoin, the DCA method have made investing bitcoin very easy for all class of people. Instead of trying to save money to invest bitcoin it is possible to buy bitcoin,  very low amount that one can afford, as you continue to use the DCA method with time you will be able to accumulate some reasonable amount of Bitcoin. You don't need to save a fine amount of money to buy bitcoin but you can start with any amount that you can afford,  with this you don't need to stress yourself much.

As you accumulate bitcoin you can also think of increasing your source of income which will make more stable for you not depend and expecting quick profit from your investment. Bitcoin investments are always successful when people have different alternatives source of income they depend on.

[Ryu_Ar1]

I can see a lot of praise of DCA here. I agree that it has its advantages: it's simple, affordable, it makes investing into Bitcoin a routine task, and overall it allows accumulating more and more BTC. However, I'd say that if someone has low income and can barely make ends meet, there's probably no good way to invest in Bitcoin. Because I firmly believe that people should only invest what they can afford to lose. Also, DCA is good overall primarily because Bitcoin tends to have long bear markets, so it means that a person is mainly accumulating BTC at a low price (compared to ATH). But we don't know if that's going to be the case in the future, and if the price remains stably high or is even growing, maybe DCA isn't very good because one's now getting a good price for it.

Therefore, someone who really wants to be in bitcoin then they must pay attention to their financial condition first before finally really being for further conditions.
Before discussing any method to be used as a tool for the investments we make, in the end, their financial management must be improved first because in the end we must understand which needs must come first (primary needs) and which are secondary needs and for me at this time currently investing for the long term in bitcoin is a secondary need because even though this is quite good but there is no need to force yourself because after all the main needs are more important so that when indeed we can manage finances well, can set aside money from the income we have and of course ready with all new conditions we can start with bitcoin including for the DCA method that we are discussing today.
But what I feel at the moment is that when we already intend to be in bitcoin and invest in it, no matter how difficult we are, we will definitely have a way to set aside that money because we have confidence for the long term so that what we invest in can make this a form of our own version of freedom in financial matters.

No need to try to force it because we can start this from a few percent of the total income we have as a form of allowance especially this is also not a race for who can have more bitcoin than others so that we don't feel burdened because the most important thing to do DCA in bitcoin is how capable you are to be prepared with all forms of risk in the long-term process in the investment we do and how consistent we are in making the investment (DCA method).

[nullama]

Yeah, I think the fact is that most people simply don't have a big lump sum amount to invest in Bitcoin, so most people are happy to do DCA.

At the end of the day it is impossible to predict what strategy is best when you ignore things like fees, because it depends on the future price of Bitcoin, which is impossible to predict.

Many people will try to show with past data that DCA or lump sum is better... those analysis are not interesting because you can choose different time periods to make either one of those strategies the best one.

[Catenaccio]

It's an actual life-changing lesson.

DCA is for everyone, includes people with high or low income. It's untrue to say this method is applicable only for low-income investors. Do you consider Michael Saylor and Micro Strategy as Low-income investors?

See their DCA with time since 2000.

Another example is El Salvador with their DCA since late of 2021.

Yeah, I think the fact is that most people simply don't have a big lump sum amount to invest in Bitcoin, so most people are happy to do DCA.

You can still have a big am ount to lump sum but because you want to take advantage of the market volatility, one can share his lump sum into various parts and spread them out in different weeks to buy bitcoin. A new investor can have $3000 and does not want to go all in at once, he share share $3000 into 30 weeks and buy with $100 every week because he knows that he has the high chances of buying more with DCA approach than lump sum.

At the end of the day it is impossible to predict what strategy is best when you ignore things like fees, because it depends on the future price of Bitcoin, which is impossible to predict.

Everyone needs to figure out what strategy works for them and use it to accumulate bitcoin. The important thing is that your bitcoin stash should be increasing overtime.

Many people will try to show with past data that DCA or lump sum is better... those analysis are not interesting because you can choose different time periods to make either one of those strategies the best one.

I agree with you.

DCA method is the best way to invest. DCA method is not only for low income individuals I think DCA method is good for every person who invests. Suppose the market is now in a lower position than this position, it will not go up or down, but it cannot be accurately estimated. In this case, if you invest using the DCA method, your investment will be much more successful. So method is better for every person if have to invest then definitely invest using DCA method.

Financial stability comes first. Always. People get caught up in the excitement and fantasize of sudden riches. Smart money doesnt work that way. Before investing in speculation, we settle our essential needs. Bitcoin is no different. For individuals who appreciate its potential and are willing to wait, it can add value to a well-diversified portfolio

No need to time the market or chase rapid riches. As with Dollar-Cost Averaging, it requires careful investing. It requires knowing the technology and believing in its long-term potential. Think about Bitcoin? Do your research. Keep your money in check. Remember, prepare for the trip. There will be bumps, but those who can handle them may reap great rewards.
