Yes, waiting for a price drop when buying Bitcoin is not an appropriate strategy for long-term investors. Logically, we should understand that waiting for a price drop is a strategy that is prone to dilemmas. So, rather than worrying and missing out on opportunities, I don't think buying Bitcoin should be fixated on price. Regardless of the current price, it's highly likely that in 10 years, the price will be much higher, and we'll profit. So, why ignore momentum and choose the right price when buying Bitcoin?

They know that price dips are very good for accumulation and if they can hold bitcoin for a long time, profit is very good especially if they buy in dips.
The thing that is always observed in the case of newbies buying Bitcoin is that they act hesitantly. They cannot understand the right time to buy Bitcoin. Of course, I agree with you that when the Bitcoin market is falling, they buy more and hold it for a long time. Experienced people take advantage of this falling opportunity, and they invest more than their Bitcoin buying budget during the fall. On the other hand, newbies are immersed in a panic around the Bitcoin fall and as a result, their Bitcoin investment is disrupted.
When the market is in a slight decline, some investors panic. They start thinking that maybe their losses will start from there. Bitcoin is a volatile cryptocurrency and it is unknown when it will increase or decrease. But for those who do not panic and just hold Bitcoin regularly during that time, the temporary decline of Bitcoin will not have any effect. For those who can speculate about Bitcoin, the decline of Bitcoin is an opportunity and for those who are ignorant about it, the decline is a panic. In any situation long-term holder of Bitcoin will get the advantage. As a new investor, if he only does DCA regularly, he will not face long-term losses but will be able to acquire permanent assets by growing his portfolio.
Those who panic at the slightest drop in the market are not long-term investors, in the case of Bitcoin investment, it is necessary to maintain your portfolio with a long-term perspective, because Bitcoin is a long-term asset that only brings real success in the long term, so patience and consistency are most important in the case of short-term volatile investments like Bitcoin. Those who invest regularly in the DCA method can definitely achieve good success, because their portfolio continues to accumulate at the average price, so volatility is not a problem for them and it is important to maintain this mentality, a real investor never panics during volatility.
Investors never panic even if the market falls, but there are some new investors who are not very patient, and they feel a lot of volatility. Yes, Bitcoin is always a long-term holding currency from which people can achieve their huge financial success, so it is not an investment for a short time. If you invest in Bitcoin according to a percentage of your fund, and it is done according to the DCA method, then you will not have to face much loss if the market falls. Investing through the DCA method has low risk and high chances of success, that is why it is always best to hold Bitcoin with a long-term plan and patience in Bitcoin.
You really said this one well and I do like to build on your point by emphasizing that what truly separates successful Bitcoin investors from the rest is mindset and conviction. Volatility isn’t a bug in Bitcoin, it’s a feature and one that rewards those with discipline, not just those chasing quick gains.
Many newcomers enter with high expectations but low patience, which is why they often fall victim to panic when prices swing. But seasoned investors understand, Bitcoin’s value doesn’t lie in short term charts, it lies in its fundamentals, its scarcity, and its growing global adoption.
That’s where DCA shines...... It removes the guesswork and emotion from the equation. By allocating a consistent portion of your capital at regular intervals, regardless of market conditions and you gradually build a strong position. It’s not about catching the bottom, it’s about staying in the game long enough to let compounding conviction work its magic.
Bitcoin has never rewarded impatience, but it has consistently rewarded those who stayed committed, ignored the noise, and thought in cycles, not weeks..... If you're investing with proper risk allocation, a long term horizon, and a DCA strategy, you're already ahead of most.
Stacking with patience isn’t just safer, it’s smarter....
