The best time to buy Bitcoin was yesterday and another best time to buy Bitcoin is today. Any investor that has discretionary income readily available to invest in Bitcoin, but choose to start accumulating Bitcoin when Bitcoin is in a dip, just know that investor is not ready to invest in Bitcoin, because i don't know why people will want to start accumulating Bitcoin in a price that's not realistic. Just as you said, it is better for people who think that Bitcoin is too high for them to accumulate to start accumulating Bitcoin by DCAing because they stand a good chance of accumulating good quantity of Bitcoin, and if a dip occur, they can still accumulating Bitcoin, which is a bonus to them.

The truth is dips always sound easier in theory than in practice. When the price falls, fear usually grows, and many of the same people who said they were waiting for a dip still hesitate to act. That’s why building a habit through DCA is more reliable because it takes emotion out of the process. If the market gives you lower prices, you benefit by adding more, but if not, you’re still moving forward instead of standing on the sidelines.

I think if you want to approach the dip it’s quite easy considering that you are not waiting for an unprecedented dip, we know that it’s quite simple to buy bitcoin through DCA with as little money that we have available, and from my experience of buying bitcoin sometimes I’ve also tried to front load my bitcoin by buying through the lump sum when I have some more discretionary available, and I’m not just constant with accumulating only through the DCA, like I always say if we have more money available and I want to buy during a dip, I have to make an approach by saving some money aside considering when the dip comes so I can buy massively and that still doesn’t stop me from buying on a regular basis.

Because dips are unpredictable, saving extra money on the side can work well in theory, but the challenge is that it often demands timing skills that most people don’t truly have. Even if someone prepares a lump sum, the question becomes when exactly is the dip, many times the price looks like it’s falling only to recover quickly, and waiting too long can leave that cash sitting idle instead of working for you.

That’s why a steady habit like DCA has such strong appeal, it guarantees progress regardless of short term moves. If someone does have additional income, nothing stops them from adding more during a sharp correction, but the foundation remains that ongoing consistency. In practice, the mix of DCA as the base and occasional extra buys when conditions feel right tends to give peace of mind, because you’re never entirely dependent on perfect timing to grow your stack.

The truth is Bitcoin is quite unpredictable, then considering the unpredictable nature of Bitcoin, then it’s always wise for investment decisions to always appreciate buying through the DCA, some guys usually makes the mistakes of buying when they think it’s right for the market to buy and invest in bitcoin, but I wouldn’t discourage whatever idea and strategies that quote happens for you to buy and accumulate bitcoin on a consistent basis, you can literally not think that the money sitting idle is a waste of time, because it has a purpose and having that reserved interest to approach the market is quite enough skill.

However we can always have a different approach when we want to consider buying when there is a dip, the fact that the price of bitcoin is unpredictable there is every tendency we would come across a dip in the market price, well you will not be waste and keeping the money idle like you think, as long as you’re buying bitcoin consistently and also having other options should in case you come across it you can still decide to buy from the dip, but that’ is a personal decision because some people wouldn’t have the opportunity to do that financially, but if I have that opportunity to do that in a financial sense why don’t I do it, because that would be a common sense to also buy in that nature while also being aggressive with other methods.

Perhaps the main thing here is not whether someone chooses DCA alone or mixes it with saving for dips, but whether they can actually stay consistent without emotions taking over. Bitcoin’s unpredictability has humbled even the most confident people, so trying to guess the right time often ends up delaying action. That’s why DCA works, it’s less about timing and more about building a habit that doesn’t break when fear or greed shows up.

Even so, if someone has extra cash set aside and the dip comes, of course it makes sense to add more. The only danger is when people wait endlessly for a perfect dip and then never start. In the end, the best approach is the one you can sustain long term without panic selling or second-guessing yourself. Consistency will always beat occasional perfect calls.
