Of course, I'm not saying it was a bad thing; I just felt that DCA would have given more value-per-$ that's all.
In future I'll probably split the lump sum into a smaller one-off + multiple DCAs. It's just a change of approach I guess; let's see what happens!
We learn every day and we learn how to do things differently as we become more acquainted and conversant with the process and the methods involved. I believe when you started your accumulation journey, if someone had told you to buy your bitcoin with DCA you wouldn't have accepted. You wouldn't have seen the difference between dca and other methods back then, but now that you have learnt it on your own and saw how DCA have the edge over others methods, you will never forget this experience. Now if you have the opportunity to advise newbies in the future who are about starting their bitcoin accumulation journey, you will explain to them with full conviction why they should start accumulation with dca method, as you have had a first hand experience yourself.
