From you explanation, that means if a Stake participant is able to be buying Bitcoin with part of the signature campaign payment on a weekly basis, he would end up accumulating a lot of Bitcoin if it's done for 52 weeks a year consecutively for 4 to 6 years. This would be a breakthrough from mosh holders to earn more money when the value of Bitcoin keeps increasing.
Imagine converting payment in USDC to Bitcoin a week basis.
Let's assume a Stake participants frequently convert 100 USDC to Bitcoin every week for 4 years to 6 years intervals.
100 USDC × 52 weeks a year = 5200 USDC worth in BTC
5200 USDC × 4 years = 20,800 USDC in BTC
If a participant is able to buy Bitcoin every single week worth of 100 USDC for 4 consecutive years. This would worth a lot of money more than 20,800 USDC worth in Bitcoin because the price of Bitcoin is not stable like the stablecoins i.e price is fixed!
If we assume that a Stake particular has been has been holding Bitcoin since August 2021 no matter the value, by now the worth would have exceed 5X if I am not mistaken. Buying and accumulating Bitcoin every week is what will make value to exceed 5X to a greater worth than holding in shitty centralized stablecoin like USDC that is almost controlled by the government influence.
Your math comes off as mostly correct, yet we still might presume even a person who invested $100 per week into bitcoin for 10 years, then he would have had invested into bitcoin around $5,200 per year and
$104k $52k over 10 years, so it is unlikely that he would have accumulated even half of a bitcoin. Perhaps after 10 years, he might have had accumulated in the ballpark of less than 0.25 BTC, yet of course, each of us can ONLY do what we can do, and if we have money from a signature campaign, we also might have money from other sources. We cannot necessarily count on the pay rate of the signature campaign continuing at a similar rate, even if we might ongoingly try to make sure that we are participating in the higher paying of the signature campaigns.
Another thing, you cannot just say proclaim that since the bitcoin price went up 5x in the past 3 years that the person's bitcoin holdings would have had gone up by 5x unless they were able to invest all of their money at a lump sum at a low price and then the bitcoin price goes up 5x after they had already established their stake in bitcoin. You can look at the kinds of numbers you get on a DCA calculator.
The DCA calculator I have seen through the link you dropped here had shown a precise way of calculating how much an investor might have earned investing in Bitcoin on a weekly interval. This is an eye opener to me so I wouldn't have to keep doing rough calculations when I can easily make use of the DCA strategic calculator to enhance a precise outcome pointing at how the price of Bitcoin has been moving along the years.
I will like to know if using the DCA strategy only encompasses investing in Bitcoin on a short intervals? Can I also conclude that buying Bitcoin over a long period of time consecutively can be attributed to using the DCA strategy in acquiring Bitcoin? Maybe I am taking this too far but an hint would help in a long way.
Thank you for sharing the link to the DCA strategic calculator. I never knew their was a calculator that could help bringing all these to reality. My explanation seems to fall in line with the DCA and from henceforth, I will take full use of this calculator which I found high comprehensive.
Investing in Bitcoin can be highly profitable and I think that was the main reason why we have been seeing big companies and government of different nations creating a strategic reserves on Bitcoin. They knew that if they could acquire large amounts of Bitcoin and holding it for several years, maybe 10 to 20 years, the value would have increased exceeding what the bank can ever afford to give you as interest on keeping your funds with them.
