BTC paycheck = DCA?

[goldkingcoiner]

Is getting paid in Bitcoin periodically considered DCA?

A lot of people here on this forum equate and refer to receiving weekly signature campaign payment in Bitcoin as "DCAing". But is it really DCA?
 
Technically, there is no capital being deployed to purchase the asset, so it would be considered income, not investment.

However, even though the mechanism differs, it has the same outcome - a accumulation effect over time.
Perhaps, you could philosophize that holding a certain currency is an investment into that currency itself.

But there are other trains of thought.

What are your thoughts on this?

It depends.
If you spend those bitcoins before the month ends, that's clearly not DCA. If you HODL the coins, I don't see why it would not be considered some sort of DCA, even if the (fiat equivalent) amount is probably not the same per period.
You may want to clear this up in the OP.

I think you meant holding and then imho it's DCA. I don't see it different from converting other means of income into Bitcoin.

PS. I also don't see why is this off topic on a bitcoin forum

@OP. What does DCA mean? Are there any airports in the district of Columbia?
