People tend to make the mistake of investing little amount of money into buying Bitcoin and lay their hope on getting huge profit within a limited time frame forgetting the higher amount invested the greater your profits.
The DCA has made it very easier for small investors to venture into the market and still make profit, despite the DCA approach being a long term strategy but you don't blame oneself as not being efficient enough to buy in bulk. Of a truth the market is most favorable to whales as a 10% up in price is already giving them good profits per what they invested.
Actually, what they did was not wrong, but they didn't invest again after that. Indeed, they can make a profit, but it is not as big as if they continued to invest their money in Bitcoin regularly. But if they can hold their bitcoins for the long term, the profits might be big.
Although the market benefits whales, we can also use it to our advantage. As long as we can invest regularly like the whale, we will also gain profits in the future. But most people don't want to go through the process because they see the process is very long. They want instant results, which cannot always happen.
If more people wanted to invest their money in Bitcoin regularly, there would be more investors who would have a strong hand in holding Bitcoin. The negative news will not shake them because they are confident in holding Bitcoin. They wait for the time to sell their bitcoins and make big profits.
