I hope Chad Saylor actually waits for a DIP before deciding to purchase more Bitcoin. Buying in any price currently will merely raise his cost-basis, WHICH will put his investment in trouble of liquidation.
That makes sense to me (except that trying to time the market is extremely tricky), but I don't think that's the way Saylor thinks--and as long as he can secure financing for his bitcoin purchases, I doubt he's all that concerned about what price he's buying in at. He thinks cash is trash, right? Well, if that's your philosophy then DCAing goes right out the window, does it not?
in the past 4.5 years in bitcoin, Saylor/MSTR is largely DCAing and continuing to DCA.
Saylor/MSTR buys bitcoin fairly regularly and fairly consistently with whatever amount of cash that his company is able to garner up without giving too much thought about BTC price. That is pretty much what DCA is, even if MSTR's BTC purchase amounts are higher than normal amounts and even if such purchases are somewhat irregular based on availability of cash (maybe weekly, maybe monthly, maybe quarterly) and perhaps internal company logistics, MSTR's delays in buying bitcoin and the irregular timelines do not seem to be much at all related to whether the BTC price is dipping or not, even though arguments can be made that Saylor/MSTR seem to get more excited in their buys when the BTC prices are going up.
I believe that Saylor/MSTR is not thinking that cash is trash in the way that your statement seems to be derogatory, judgmental and even seemingly defensive about the say Saylor/MSTR seems to be thinking about the matter, but instead there is a factual and logical understanding that cash (fiat) is being debased at such a high rate that cash is inevitably losing its purchasing power and going to continue to lose its purchasing power at a rate that is not financially and/or psychologically acceptable... I think in one of Saylor's earliest 2020 interviews, he said that he and his company were motivated by the outrageousness of the 2020 printing and the seeming fact that sitting on cash was like keeping your value in a melting icecube... so considering the inevitable debasement of the dollar is not an unsubstantiated way of thinking as you seem to still be inclined towards poo-pooing the intensity in which Saylor/MSTR is taking advantage of glitches in the dollar/debt system. You might even be suggesting that Saylor is contributing to the acceleration of the dollar basement by his engaging in a speculative attack on the dollar through the mechanisms that he is using.
Even Saylor seems to agree that the dollar is the best of the shitty fiats that are structurally not able to come even close to retaining their purchasing power, and sound money, to the extent that bitcoin fits the bill of sound money, and Saylor has identified bitcoin as the most pristine of any asset currently available (and he is likely correct in that assessment, since many other bitcoiners were thinking similar things about the extreme soundness of bitcoin before Saylor came onto into bitcoin's marketing scene in 2020 and magnified his purchasing of bitcoin on a regular, persistent, consistent and even aggressive way. I doubt that Saylor/MSTR is being overly aggressive in their accumulation of bitcoin as you and the other Saylor/MSTR haters seem to want to proclaim or to imply.

Michael sayor no doubt is one of the largest Bitcoin holder in the globe,accumulating Bitcoin consistently through DCA strategy is working well for him. He(saylor) doesn't wait for Bitcoin to dip before he buys, he doesn't have time studying the market before stashing more Bitcoin,once the cash is available he buys not minding the current price of Bitcoin. Michael saylor truly understand that as an investors who wants to accumulate more Bitcoin for yourself,you have to use DCA strategy, with DCA strategy you don't have to study the Market or wait for a Dip before buying you just consistently buy once the cash is available and this is far the most convenient and best method to accumulate Bitcoin.
I really love the way saylor is stashing bitcoin,he understands how bitcoins work,he understands to secure a better future after retirement is by buying Bitcoin through DCA and Hodl for a long time to maximize large profits
