This May Be the Final Year to DCA Your Way to One Bitcoin in a Decade

Because it is easy to earn one Bitcoin in a decade and the DCA method plays the most important role in making yourself financially independent.
The more you hold Bitcoin according to the DCA method, the longer your investment will be in the long term. Keeping Bitcoin aside for a decade and continuing to hold it is the most modern and plays a sure role in becoming financially independent.
The article talks about $250 per week for 10 years, which would be right around $13k per year and $130k in 10 years. I doubt that $130k in 10 years is going to be enough to get a guy to whole coiner status in the next 10 years. .but yeah, guys can do what they are able to do, and if they are able to start out with $250 per week for a while then maybe their income might increase and/or they might have other opportunities along the way, if they are really wanting to get to whole coiner status within 10 years.
Whether 1 whole coin is necessary or not, may be another question, yet surely, there are folks who are able to invest $250 per week and they have reasonable expectations to be able to increase their income and/or their discretionary income in the coming 10 years, so starting out with $250 per week may well be reasonably possible to achieve whole coiner status in 10 years or less, yet we likely have to presume some kinds of an ability to increase the DCA.. so perhaps start out with $250 per week in 2025, and then each year increase the DCA amount by 7%, so then in 2026 the amount might be $267 per week, and then in 2027 the DCA amount might be $286 per week, and then 2028 the DCA amount might well be $306 per week, etc etc etc, and by the time we get to 2035 or maybe even sooner, we might have had crossed over the threshold of having a whole coin (to the extent a whole coin is necessary and/or reasonable as a goal for us).

The headline was kinda wild at first, but after clicking the link and reading the article, I won’t lie, it makes some sense. The truth is, with how Bitcoin price is moving, getting a full BTC through DCA might actually become harder soon... Like, if you're putting in the same amount monthly and price keeps going up, you're just getting less BTC each time. Unless you increase your DCA amount, it gets less effective over time.
Still though, I believe DCA is one of the best ways for regular people to stack without stress. Just set a plan and stick to it. No pressure, no hype, just slow and steady.
But yeah, we shouldn’t let stuff like this make us panic or feel behind... Everyone has their own pace. And everyone’s financial situation is different. It’s better to DCA with what you can afford and keep your life balanced. If there is a legit way to boost your income to help with stacking more, then go for it, but don’t force anything....
I disagree with you on this statement. No matter how expensive bitcoin is, new investors will continue to use DCA method to accumulate bitcoin. It all depends on the amount that you are using to DCA, that's what will determine if you will be able to accumulate 1btc in ten years time. If someone with a strong discretionary income invest in bitcoin for ten years and keep his bitcoin accumulation ongoing with persistent and consistent, he can achieve one bitcoin within ten years.
I don’t think ''As-Soon-As'' guy said people shouldn’t DCA or that new investors won’t be able to. I’ll humbly advise that before we make comments, it is good to understand the full context of what the person is trying to drive. I honestly doubt you clicked the link and read through the article.
Because if you did, you would notice the article did not say people should stop DCAing. It actually talked about two possible scenarios.
First, if BTC keeps creating new highs and maybe reaches $520,000 or more, DCA would naturally become less effective, especially for people DCAing with small amounts, because you would just be getting fewer BTC for the same money.
Second, if Bitcoin drops or retraces, then DCA might actually become more effective and people could reach the 1 BTC target a lot easier.
So it is not that DCA is bad, it is still the best strategy, but the outcome depends on how much you’re DCAing with and what the market does over time. That is all he was trying to point out.
For sure it is good to account for a variety of possibilities and if we have such lofty goals, then we have to figure out ways to try to make sure that they are realistic and reachable for us by starting out with realistic parameters.. and yeah, if we do not ponder some of the specifics regarding how to get there, then we are merely engaging in detached fantasies rather than figuring out some potential strategy that might bring us closer towards being able to reach the goal that we set for ourselves.
Another thing is that if we consider best case and worse case scenarios, and then we try to accumulate in accordance with the worse case scenario, then our creating a plan and following it that considers and accounts for the worse case scenarios, then we become more likely of reaching our goals at that time or maybe even at a sooner date and maybe even exceeding our expectations.
I had done a similar thing in late 2013 when I started investing into bitcoin, and surely I am not sure if I was being realistic or unrealistic, but I had set goals for myself at various points regarding what I would get to, and many times my goals were for something like 6 months at a time, so then if I met or exceeded my goals for the shorter timeframe, then I would be able to set some other goals, and my longer term goals were more directional rather than specific… so for example I had considered that it would be good if my bitcoin investment would meet or exceed the value of all of my then traditional investments in around 20 years.. but then what ended up happening is that my bitcoin investment was in the negative for nearly 3 years, which allowed me to accumulate more bitcoin, but then at the same time, when bitcoin ended up going 10x to 15x in value, then my bitcoin started to match the size and the value of all of my traditional investments, and that happened in right around 3.5 years from the time that I started investing, even though the investment was not even very profitable at all for the first 3 years and it was even in the negative, and then all of a sudden from late 2015 to late 2016, BTC prices went from $250 per coin to $1k per coin.. and then surely we know in 2017 BTC prices went from $1k to $19,666, so then that ended up being 78x, even if the correction back down to $3k or $4k in 2018 would still keep the bottom at more than 14x. so even after correcting back down after around 5-ish years of investing into bitcoin, my bitcoin holdings ended up exceeding the value of my traditional investments. .and so I ended up exceeding my goals within ¼ of the time that I had expected that it might take to achieve…so surely there sometimes can be ways that our preparations and our attempts to be realistic with our goals end up with our goals being exceeded.. .which means that a guy who actively asserts himself in achieving his goal and he tries to be realistic about the goals, he might find that he ended up exceeding his own expectations… which is a good feeling to not to create expectations that are too high, but to take actions that are reasonably pushing the possibility to become an overachiever without necessarily stressing yourself out in the process.
