Dollar-Cost Averaging means investing a fixed amount in Bitcoin at regular intervals (weekly, monthly) regardless of price. This strategy reduces the impact of volatility because you buy more when prices are low and less when prices are high. Our DCA Calculator shows how this strategy would have performed over any time period.
Historical data shows that Bitcoin has rewarded long-term holders at almost any entry point.
