Dollar-cost averaging into BTC doesn't require any religious faith; frankly, it's just about understanding a few simple logical principles.



Let's look at reality first: the fiat currency in our hands has no real intrinsic value anchor. When GDP grows (although the actual growth rate is often debated), central banks usually choose to print money to stimulate the economy. Once this freshly printed money enters the market, inflation follows. You can feel it — the money in your hands is becoming less valuable, and the cost of goods is rising year after year.

Now, consider a different perspective: what if you see BTC as a way to give your assets a new lease on life? It can't directly buy groceries or pay rent (you need to convert it into fiat first), but it represents a completely decentralized, supply-limited scarce asset.

Looking at BTC's historical performance, despite experiencing multiple sharp fluctuations — from a few cents to its current scale — the long-term trend clearly shows an increase in value. The underlying logic is not complicated: its decentralized nature aligns with traditional finance, global consensus is gradually building, and its role as an inflation hedge in asset allocation is becoming more prominent.

What's the best part about dollar-cost averaging? It’s the ability to buy in at different price points in batches, effectively avoiding the risk of "all-in at the top." While you might miss out on some short-term rapid gains, the benefit is significantly reducing the impact of a single poor decision.

Ultimately, the essence of dollar-cost averaging into BTC is: converting fiat currencies, which are silently eroded by inflation, into an "alternative asset" with genuine scarcity, decentralization, and long-term purchasing power preservation. You don't need to predict every short-term market fluctuation or watch the exchange's candlestick charts 24/7. As long as you accept its value logic, let time do the work. As long as the global economy keeps running, this allocation has its reason for existence.

That's right, but dollar-cost averaging also depends on the timing of entry. You can't go all-in every time.

Printing money endlessly won't make paper currency valuable. Switching to BTC is the right choice.

Exactly, the hardest part is the dollar-cost averaging before bottoming out.

Basically, it's fighting against inflation, and it feels pretty satisfying.

That's right. Instead of worrying about fiat currency depreciation, it's better to let your idle money do the work. The beauty of dollar-cost averaging is right here—you don't need to predict the market every day; just relax and wait. It sounds convincing, but how many can truly withstand a bear market? Printing money is indeed outrageous, no wonder everyone is looking for an exit. I can accept this logic, but you have to resist the temptation to look at the prices. Ultimately, it's still one of the safest ways to fight inflation.
