Dollar-cost averaging into BTC for 1 year with 25 weekly. Total invested 1300. Current value 1028. That is a -20.9% loss.
Most people would call this a failure. I call it the real test.
During that year, you bought BTC at highs. You bought at lows. You never tried to time the market. You just kept building the position. Now the market is down, and your paper loss looks rough. But here is the actual math. You accumulated 365 days of Bitcoin at a blended price lower than where the market peaked. When the next cycle turns, your average entry is already set.
That is the point of DCA. It does not make every trade feel good. It makes the long game possible.
The people who quit after a -20% drawdown are the ones who sell at the bottom. The ones who keep stacking through the pain are the ones who end up with a much lower cost basis when BTC recovers.
This is not about being right this week. It is about being positioned years from now.
If you started DCA today with 25 weekly, would you stay consistent after a full year of red numbers?
