Every single week, I set aside a bit of cash and buy some Bitcoin.
Not because I think I’ve found the perfect moment to jump in, but because I don’t need to.
It’s called Dollar Cost Averaging, or DCA for short. If you're thinking long-term, it’s a game-changer.
Instead of trying to time the market (which almost no one gets right consistently), I just invest regularly. Low price? I buy. High price? Still buy.
It averages out over time, and more importantly, it takes the stress out of the process.
Here’s the bigger picture:
The dollars sitting in your savings account? They’re shrinking in value. Every year, thanks to inflation, you can buy a little (or a lot) less with the same amount of money.
Bitcoin, on the other hand, was built with scarcity in mind - only 21 million will ever exist. That’s it.
So when the money printer kicks into overdrive (and let’s be honest, it’s been running hot for a while now), guess what tends to happen? Bitcoin climbs.
More fiat currency in circulation, lower interest rates, and even higher cost to mine new BTC - all of that creates upward pressure on the price.
Yes, buying Bitcoin involves some risk. But there’s also a cost to not doing anything. Every time you delay, your cash is quietly losing value.
So I DCA into Bitcoin. Not because I’m chasing the next big spike, but because I believe in protecting the purchasing power of my money now and over the coming years.
Just something to chew on - especially if you’re starting to think about the next chapter of your financial life.
