That's a good strategy to accumulate bitcoin, buying bitcoin weekly and consistently from paid signature campaign but it should done using discretionary income. Accumulate bitcoin from money with receive from paid signature campaign without sorting your basic needs first is gambling. It doesn't matter whether you have multiple sources of income, accumulating bitcoin has to be done within your discretionary income which is the money that remain after your basic needs has been met.

If you have a job or business that take cares of your daily needs and also you are able to save funds for emergency needs. In that case your income from signature campaign is a good source for you to gather Bitcoins. Why discretionary income is necessary to gather Bitcoins because it allows us to hold your Bitcoins for longer duration. We can gather Bitcoins with our normal income but in that case we can't fulfil our target of accumulating and holding Bitcoin for its one cycle i.e. 4 years.

I like to consider the matter, as much a possible, in terms of trying to organize and control the knowns rather than the unknowns.
That is a very good way to describe it. We can make financial plans for a number of different scenarios and directions, but the focus should be on what we can control rather than spending too much time speculating the market. I am sure that the ultra wealthy and connected manipulate the markets in all sorts of ways, but since I am neither that rich nor do I have media connections it is hard for me to have any influence on the market. Worse it seems that doing anything risky such as leverage or futures trading just seems like one is exposing themselves to be harvested from their money..

Maybe he also has some system in which no matter what he is buying $30 per week of bitcoin, and he has a side fund that is around $600, so he knows that side fund covers 20 weeks, yet from time to time, he might have to replenish his side fund, and maybe most of the weeks he is investing $100, but he has some variability.. and sometimes he might even figure out some ways to garner up some extra funds so he can buy more or so that he can put the extra funds into his back up funds.
I think that the core of someone's DCA strategy should use funds that will buy no matter what. Similar to how the strategy says do not speculate on the price, instead buy, then people should not speculate with whether they are going to have the money or not. Missing a key vital DCA buys could ruin a lot of the benefits of the strategy, and we do not know in advance which these buys are going to be we can only analyze it in hindsight. A secondary DCA that is more risky can be added on top of this so in case there is variability that one can be paused temporarily until funds are in order again.

Overaccumulation state is the best state to be in. Still more often I find myself in the idealistic group, I always want to have more Bitcoin.
I personally think that the guys that get into the most trouble is if they prematurely declare themselves in overaccumulation status, so we have likely heard about guys who quit their jobs or took other actions, but they were not quite at a place where they could support themselves, so then if the start drawing from their bitcoin they are depleting their principle, and so if the guy has enough or more than enough, then it is likely that the whole value of the bitcoin holdings is growing faster than it is being withdrawn from, so, if the guy has a 30% cushion, then that extra 30% continues to compound upon itself, and there might be some time in the future that he might draw upon some of that extra BTC.

On the other hand, if the guy is maximizing his withdrawal, then he might figure out that he is withdrawing too much too soon.. so he has to figure out how to cut his budget... and from my perspective, it is better to pre-emptively cut one's budget rather than being forced into a situation in which the cutting of the budget is due to the principle not being enough to support the amount that is being withdrawn.
From that perspective, overaccumulation could be seen as a risky position and you have given some good examples where it did not turn out so well. I did not mean that one should act in any way like those people, actually I would not change anything at all if I find myself in such a position. I continue the same way as I was yesterday, with that there is no risk to anything. I can understand a bit more people who have jobs that are terrible in some way wanting to quit, but I do not understand those that want to quit all kinds of work. That is not healthy, the human body is meant to be mildly stressed and active in all ways.

One thing I would like to add is that one of best way to accumulate bitcoin is to gather it in a way like you are paid in signature campaign i.e. every week on a particular day. This frees you from tension of choosing the right time to buy Bitcoin on a specific day in week. Like if my signature campaign pays me 100$ on every money and that campaign continuous for 4 years then I will be able to invest almost 20,800$ (5200x4) in to Bitcoin. Provided I have other source of income to meet my daily and emergency requirements this 20,800$ will remain intact after completion of 4 years. This 20,800$ will be able to give me good return, if its not touched for 4 years.  
Many methods of passive accumulation are good if done right, but what you have written I don't think it applies to many users. If we look at the data on where the transactions are going, they are often going directly to exchanges. I can't believe that anyone who is serious about accumulating Bitcoin in the long-term would do it this way, these two things are not compatible. If you are keeping the Bitcoin directly on your wallet for a long period of time, I can believe it otherwise I doubt it. Based from some of the payments that I have seen, very few users are doing this unfortunately. Anyway signature campaign payments could be seen as discretionary income, that is good. Those that are trying to use it as primary income are doing it wrong and probably are abusing the forum too..

In fact, DCA is the best way to invest in coins that you are absolutely sure will last forever and will see their value improve significantly in the future. For example, you can use dca on currencies like bitcoin and ethereum because their prices increase rapidly. Trading and investing is a game of making decisions between probability and uncertainty. So if you do your investment homework and stay informed about management, business, planning, strategy, and political and economic issues, your crypto investment can be the best.
Point of correction nobody is talking about coins (shitcoins) here, we are specifically talking about Bitcoin. So if you want to contribute to this thread you have to be specific and stick to the word Bitcoin only.
Furthermore, we don't discuss about trading here, rather we are specifically talking about long term investment in Bitcoin. I agree with you that DCA is best strategy, but everything else you said is not in line with our discussion here.

Dude bitcoin is not shitcoin, and you don't have to make things difficult and delay yourself with this things that you are speaking about. You don't need these thing you are saying to ongoingly invest in bitcoin.

What you only need is your discretionary income and guessing you know what that is, and common sense to know your financial life and know the extent that you can invest ongoingly without being under pressure.

Well DCA strategy is considered to be the safest strategy to invest because it offers many benefit like reducing the impact of volatility and reducing the risk of timing the market wrongly but still nothing is guaranteed. There is no coin you can be 100 percent sure will last forever because even strong projects/coin can fail or lose relevance over time. DCA works best when applied to assets with solid long term potential like Bitcoin (no other coin is as suitable). Also, their prices don’t always rise rapidly instead they move sideways or fluctuate due to market volatility.

If you have to invest in Bitcoin, you should definitely invest for a long time, because a person cannot suddenly buy Bitcoin with a large amount of money. That is why it is necessary to use strategies for Bitcoin, so that each person can invest in Bitcoin for a long time according to his ability and his portfolio will be much larger. He will be able to become financially independent in the future, because it is possible to achieve success through Bitcoin investment.
Because a person can lose as much money as he can if he invests in Bitcoin or if he invests in Bitcoin with unwanted expenses, then it will be possible to sustain his Bitcoin investment for a long time.

You can buy Bitcoin with most of your cash funds but not your all fund. This is your personal investment decision but buying Bitcoin immediately is a good decision. A wealthy person can buy a lump sum with the funds he has. DCA method is the best and ideal among the recommendations for accumulating Bitcoin. It emerges through the strategy of how an individual organizes his financial capacity. The strategy of accumulating Bitcoin through discretionary income and maintaining the availability of cash funds is an important prerequisite for growing a Bitcoin stack. Over time this cash fund should be used to aggressively accumulate Bitcoin and replenish the size of that fund. Increasing the dynamics of income to increase the scope of discretionary income is a great strategy for growing a Bitcoin portfolio.

You are describing a buying a dip strategy to supplement a DCA strategy, and it is not necessarily better to hold back funds for buying the dip rather than just buying regularly like a DCA approach allows such tailoring.. and it is also not automatic that everyone should be attempting to deploy such an approach to buy dips that might not end up happening.

One of the problems with buying the dip approach to accumulating bitcoin is that it employs a waiting approach, and surely the waiting approach could really put guys into a wrong mindset and even a more whimpy and less focused bitcoin accumulation way of thinking.

One of the advantages of DCA is that you can tailor the ongoing buying (whether weekly or otherwise) to your income level and also to your desired level of aggressiveness, and frequently aggressiveness should be determined based on the availability (and strength) of cashflows (and back up funds) rather than based on whether the BTC price might be going up, down or sideways.

In the end, you can do whatever you like, but buying the dip is a different approach from DCA, so you should at least recognize and appreciate that buying the dip is different from DCA, and buying the dip is a different technique to the extent that you might want to supplement your DCA approach with some variation of such buying the dip techniques that may or may not end up resulting in buys or even the employment of an appropriate level of ongoing bitcoin buying aggressiveness.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled as: "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

People make choices that sometimes is followed by action (or inaction), and sometimes they regret their decisions, actions and/or inactions at a later date.
When it comes to Bitcoin investments, it is the inactions that tends to affect people the most, the inactions that make one wants to procrastinate, it makes someone to try and speculate without having enough data or the idea on how to analyze the market and most times, these individuals find themselves taking their time to do absolutely nothing, not having to invest but, having the time to count on a loss they never encountered due to missed opportunities. Inactions is in itself an action of not having to do nothing and that’s one place the DCA strategy looks to eradicate.
It is really needless for someone to be speculating or trying to analyze the market because it is of no use to an investor and trust me any investor that is doing all these means they don't know what Bitcoin investment is all about but someone who does, will understand and know it is actually a waste to be doing that. Traders are the ones who analyze and speculate because they believe doing that will help them make a lot of profit. And sometimes I think what causes this inaction is ignorant yes.

Your way of describing the situation is why we frequently suggest that if the investor is doing any analysis, then the main analysis would be in regards to analyzing his cashflows and figuring out a reasonable amount of bitcoin that he is able to buy each week (to the extent that he is buying weekly).. Sure, there is nothing wrong with doing some other analysis of the market as long as it is not distracting from the main analysis and the ongoing and persistent buying of bitcoin, especially for guys who might be new and needing to take a cycle or more to build their bitcoin position.

It seems to me that the more bitcoin that they accumulate (such as if they get to a point that their bitcoin is enough to cover 6-12 months of their expenses or more), then there may be more room to start to make various analysis of their progress and perhaps assessments in regards to whether they might need to adjust the aggressiveness of their bitcoin accumulation strategies/practices.

Putting the analysis to do for new people on a scale, cashflows and deciding the discretionary funds carry first. Other analysis to level up knowledge can come later when already accumulating Bitcoin.

Like some people would suggest having reserve funds that can cover six months of expenses before starting Bitcoin investment, the idea of accumulating Bitcoin that can cover six months expenses or more is highly superior and then as for doing analysis it is still a high level idea. Whiile doing analysis an investor already having their portfolio breathing and flying and ready to continue flying.

That buying at the dip they are thinking at and DCA is truly a different strategy, also its important for people to know its difference. DCA is good strategy since this can fit up even if they use small amounts for a while and also if they have good cashflows. Consistency also helps investors using this strategy those price guessing or fall from emotional trap.

Although if they can able to buy at the dip somehow this is good opportunistic approach, but they should not always think about doing it. Since the risk is if that situation will not came they might get bothered and will not think about buying at the moment which can cause them delays.

DCA can give not only peace of mind, but also nice investment structure to people use this strategy, buying at the dip should be an optional or those what we call bonus state especially if they have available funds when that situation occur.

If you are keeping the Bitcoin directly on your wallet for a long period of time, I can believe it otherwise I doubt it.

If you are planning to invest for long term than self custody is the right way because not many exchanges lasts for long term. I have a decentralised wallet and I always keep my Bitcoin there because Bitcoin was created for self custodial wallets.

One of the advantages of DCA is that you can tailor the ongoing buying (whether weekly or otherwise) to your income level and also to your desired level of aggressiveness, and frequently aggressiveness should be determined based on the availability (and strength) of cashflows (and back up funds) rather than based on whether the BTC price might be going up, down or sideways.

The only thing mandatory for DCA is that you remain consistent and never break your buying streak. If you just remain consistent with what you initially plan to invest in Bitcoin like 100$ per week into Bitcoin then that 100 dollar per week can give you good return after 4 years or more. You can increase your profit, if you keep on investing more in Bitcoin as and when you have more money available at your disposal. DCA gives you all that liberty and we just need to understand that.

A person can invest with any amount of money according to his freedom, it is his freedom, so you can never force many people to invest with more money and there are many investors who can invest in Bitcoin with a small amount of money. However, we must keep in mind that we have to continue investing in Bitcoin by maintaining the continuity of purchase, and if a new investor invests in Bitcoin according to his ability and holds it for the future, he will definitely be able to sustain his investment with prudent income.
Therefore, investing in Bitcoin according to the DCA strategy is a very good idea, as it maintains the continuity of Bitcoin purchase.

Off course anyone can invest with any amount they are comfortable with ( their discretionary income) but they should also know that the return will depend on what is invested that is a small input will yield an output depending on the input and large input will also yield an output that will be equivalent or that will depend on the input. And we should understand that what we can afford to lose or let go doesn't necessarily mean a small amount of money because there is an amount you will be investing and it won't look like you are making progress even if you are consistent.

Like some people would suggest having reserve funds that can cover six months of expenses before starting Bitcoin investment, the idea of accumulating Bitcoin that can cover six months expenses or more is highly superior and then as for doing analysis it is still a high level idea.
Firstly, the funds that you need to set up to cover six months of your expenses is called an emergency funds and not reserve funds. Your emergency funds should be set up along side with your bitcoin investment if you don't have any on ground before venturing into bitcoin investment.

This reason is because if you are waiting to build your emergency funds of six months of your expenses before you start your bitcoin investment, it will keep you waiting for long missing out the opportunities in the market that you should have used to grow bitcoin stash to a certain level.

Waiting in never a good strategy and it's a set back strategy. Time and bitcoin price waits for no one so get started the moment you have your discretionary income and build your emergency funds simultaneously with your bitcoin investment. You don't have a bitcoin investment so what is your emergency funds protecting. If you do that it's a misplaced priority. Your bitcoin investment is prior to your emergency funds.

Off course anyone can invest with any amount they are comfortable with ( their discretionary income) but they should also know that the return will depend on what is invested that is a small input will yield an output depending on the input and large input will also yield an output that will be equivalent or that will depend on the input. And we should understand that what we can afford to lose or let go doesn't necessarily mean a small amount of money because there is an amount you will be investing and it won't look like you are making progress even if you are consistent.
I still think that folks level of consistency as well a how long their investment timeline is, are what actually determines the size of their portfolio/or output in the long run... Folks with small amount of discretionary income can still start and make progress if they are consistent with that amount.. Consistency with little amounts may sometimes feel as if there isn't any progress, but that doesn't mean there isn't any progress... The thing about growth is that it is a gradual process, but with time as well as consistency you will begin to see results....

At the start, folks can begin small which is a far more better decision than delaying your investment journey.... However as folks go on with their accumulation, it is still important that they looks for ways that they could very well increase their income sources to get more discretionary income so they could very well increase their investments amounts....

The only thing mandatory for DCA is that you remain consistent and never break your buying streak. If you just remain consistent with what you initially plan to invest in Bitcoin like 100$ per week into Bitcoin then that 100 dollar per week can give you good return after 4 years or more. You can increase your profit, if you keep on investing more in Bitcoin as and when you have more money available at your disposal. DCA gives you all that liberty and we just need to understand that.   
I know DCA is the best Bitcoin accumulation strategy but using the word mandatory may makes it difficult for new investor. Long term investment may have some gap in my accumulation. Talking about requirements may create fear of investment for new investors. In my opinion freedom is a prerequisite for Bitcoin accumulation such as any amount. Long term such as 4-10 years keep an emergency fund to accumulate Bitcoin regularly and keep a cash flow to add leverage. But accumulation Bitcoin regularly is a matter of choice and it is important to increase financial volume in the future. Adding leverage depends on your cash flow and is not as important as regular Bitcoin accumulation.

Yes consistency is very important in DCA method, but I don’t think it is mandatory to be investing in the same timeframe and the same amount; it can be whenever you have money especially if you don’t have stable source of income, but forcing yourself to invest weekly or monthly when your stream of income is not stable will lead you to some problem and maybe panic sell when you have no money for your upkeep and other activities. Therefore, it is better to invest based on your convenience so that you can be sure that you will hold for long periods of time so that you can maximize your profit.

One of the advantages of DCA is that you can tailor the ongoing buying (whether weekly or otherwise) to your income level and also to your desired level of aggressiveness, and frequently aggressiveness should be determined based on the availability (and strength) of cashflows (and back up funds) rather than based on whether the BTC price might be going up, down or sideways.

The word mandatory doesn't really have anything to do with DCA strategy because it's a personal decision. DCA strategy needs consistency yes and that's how the little input on intervals amass. DCA strategy not being mandatory is why you can tune or remote your level of aggressiveness to desire depending on present financial capacity "independent of whether the BTC price might go be going up, down or sideways".

In fact, DCA is the best way to invest in coins that you are absolutely sure will last forever and will see their value improve significantly in the future. For example, you can use dca on currencies like bitcoin and ethereum because their prices increase rapidly. Trading and investing is a game of making decisions between probability and uncertainty. So if you do your investment homework and stay informed about management, business, planning, strategy, and political and economic issues, your crypto investment can be the best.
Well DCA strategy is considered to be the safest strategy to invest because it offers many benefit like reducing the impact of volatility and reducing the risk of timing the market wrongly but still nothing is guaranteed. There is no coin you can be 100 percent sure will last forever because even strong projects/coin can fail or lose relevance over time. DCA works best when applied to assets with solid long term potential like Bitcoin (no other coin is as suitable). Also, their prices don’t always rise rapidly instead they move sideways or fluctuate due to market volatility.

It is known to be the safest way to actually be part of Bitcoin and also to accumulate Bitcoin because a lot of people have been asking for ways that they will be able to accumulate Bitcoin and this is one of the reasons DCA is always recommended, because that is the only way you can do something different and better and since all finger are not equal then for other average people and rich people DCA is the simplest for every one to venture into no matter your status.

On the other hand, we are always doing what is best for us. Before we start anything, we should know what we want to put in place should be done because, from the way it has been going, not everyone will start and be able to finish, just because they did not plan well people should know that the journey is not usually easy when you want to start but the most important thing is for you to be able accomplish my goal.

Yes I agree with you, using the DCA strategy does not hinder an investor whether the price increases or decreases. However, using DCA has many benefits such as
  • reducing risk
  • reducing the average purchase price
also market timing is not required and it is possible to invest steadily, the DCA strategy is a strategy that will help you survive in investment

Many people in the world are now rich by investing through the DCA strategy and they are investing regularly without any hesitation.

If you are wondering how to start DCA then it is very easy for you, you just have to buy Bitcoin with the money left over after all your expenses, weekly or monthly through the DCA strategy. I see the DCA strategy as an easy and effective way to invest in Bitcoin. And yes it encourages new investors
