Frequently asked questions
What is dollar cost averaging (DCA)?
DCA means investing a fixed amount on a regular schedule — like $100 every month into Bitcoin — regardless of the price. It removes the stress of timing the market and smooths out volatility over time.
Has DCA into Bitcoin ever lost money?
Every 4-year DCA window in Bitcoin's history has been profitable. Shorter windows can show losses during bear markets, but patience has always been rewarded so far.
How much should I invest per month?
Start with an amount you'd be comfortable losing entirely — $25 to $200/month is a common range for beginners. The consistency matters more than the amount.
Is this financial advice?
No. This calculator shows historical data only. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Bitcoin is volatile. Do your own research and consult a financial advisor for personalized advice.
