We are seeing Bitcoin’s price bottom at a level that would have been an all time high 2 months ago. That is bullish.

Bitcoin isn’t ready to top for this cycle yet, but it’s possible it has. I think it is still a market to buy though. The value is getting high to be taking on big new positions, but I don’t see any reason to stop DCA’ing.

The DCA method for me is the most subtle method to accumulate bitcoin no matter the price. If an individual decides to lump sum then is basically dependent on his level of income, but for the DCA method it’s not dependent on any category, both the high and low income earners seeking a long term strategy of continuous and consistently accumulation of bitcoin and hodl, are most certainly and likely dependent to go by this method to accumulate and hodl. The DCA allows you the most stability and consistency in the market which for me you don’t depend on the price of bitcoin before you accumulate. I don’t also see any reason stopping DCA.

Today's ATH will surely be dip sometime in the future

I do not know why this sounds so true and cool in my ears haha Cheesy

, but in reality it is actually 100% true.. Every ATH will surely be a dip sometime in the future, no matter how big the hype feels at that moment.. The market always has a way of proofing itself, and what looks like the very top today usually turns into a stepping stone later on.. It is just the natural way of Bitcoin price now...

The interesting part is how people react to it. Some get scared and think the dip is the end, while others understand it is simply part of the journey.. A dip after ATH does not mean failure, it is more like the Bitcoin catching its breath.. In fact, without those dips, how would you expect enough strength to push for new highs.?. And is the people that sees this as an opportunity instead of a threat that usually ends up ahead..

For me now, TBH, I do not really celebrate some of these ATHs too much, because honestly they come and go like normal phases in Bitcoin.. The key prices I will be celebrating are when we are talking about serious price like $200k to $1m haha Cheesy

, that is the kind of level that will change the whole conversation around Bitcoin and even the financial sector at large. I have got my eyes on those prices lol, until then every other ATH in between just feels like checkpoints on a long road trip... i am not saying it is bad to acknowledge them, it is just how i see it.. In all my point is the dip is not the opposite of ATH, it is actually the partner that makes the next ATH possible...

What I see is that ATH and dips are not just about price action, they are actually psychological checkpoints. Each ATH forces the market to bring in a new wave of believers, while each dip cleans out the weak hands who only came in for quick gains. That cycle of onboarding and cleansing is what keeps Bitcoin strong long term.

Another way to look at it is that dips after ATHs serve as price memory. Once Bitcoin has touched a certain level, even if it falls, that price gets written into history and becomes a reference point for future rallies. For example, when Bitcoin broke $20k in 2020 after rejecting it in 2017, that memory made it a strong support instead of just a random number. The same will happen with every new ATH going forward.

So instead of seeing ATH and dip as opposite ends, I see them as stages in Bitcoin’s process of building trust in the market. ATHs expand the imagination of what’s possible, and dips test conviction to filter who really understands the asset. That is the deeper game behind the numbers.

You are right, I never really looked at it that way before but it makes sense. ATHs do pull in a new set of people who suddenly believe this thing is real and dips are usually where you see who was only here for quick money.. It is almost like Bitcoin has its own way of separating noise from the serious players, and it keeps repeating the same test every cycle..

And that price memory point you made is so true.. yeah that $20k felt like an impossible wall back in then, and then in 2020 when it finally broke, it was not just another number anymore, it became a solid floor. Since then I do not even look at those old levels the same way, they just turn into history marks. and that is probably going to keep happening with every new ATH we see..

For me, I just see ATHs and dips as two sides of the same coin. The hype pulls you in, the dip checks your patience, and if you survive both, you end up stronger. It is not always easy to sit through it, but that is literally the game with Bitcoin especially with a long term mind set..

Maybe the best way to put it is that Bitcoin uses ATHs and dips as its own natural filtering system. Every new high brings in fresh attention, new believers, and a lot of noise, but the correction that follows is where conviction gets tested. The people who only showed up for the hype usually exit, while those who stay end up building the strongest hands. That repeating cycle is what keeps shaping the community over time.

The price memory part you mentioned is exactly why Bitcoin feels so different from any other asset. Once a level is broken, it rarely fades back into irrelevance. It becomes a reference point, sometimes a support, sometimes just a psychological milestone, but always part of the story. That is why old highs like $20k now feel like a stepping stone instead of a ceiling.

In the end, ATHs and dips are not opposites but partners. One attracts attention, the other measures commitment. If you can sit through both with a long term mindset, you come out with not just stronger holdings but also stronger conviction. That is the real reward for patience in Bitcoin.
