I agree with you that DCA is preferred because otherwise trying to time the BTC price might cause someone to stop DCAing and attempt to be strategizing with the price when they should just be ongoingly buying (especially at these prices).. but like I already mentioned, it does seem that the more BTC that any of us has already accumulated, then we will tend to have more options to attempt to strategize with buying on dips rather than just continuing to buy on a regular basis.
I would think that anyone who has been accumulating BTC with a relatively modest budget for less than 5 years would be pretty eager to continue to buy BTC at these prices, but it is very difficult to generalize. Sometimes if BTC HODLers/accumulators had been more aggressive in their earlier times of BTC accumulation and if they were into BTC (and if they accumulated a decent amount of BTC) prior to October 2021, then they may well feel that they have already accumulated a lot of BTC at sub $10k BTC prices, so they might be less eager to be buying now, even if the BTC price has dipped around 75% from our November 2021 top.
Now that's what I don't want to happen, at first DCA was favored but they have changed the strategy structure due to the price going down and trying to buy more to leave DCA I didn't do it for me to stick to the main strategy with DCA being the main priority and it's the same getting bitcoins regularly to buy now for me is the same but don't leave what has been done before.
Maybe many people have been tempted by the current price and changed direction to buy and even add from their savings because they think this is the lowest dips but really we don't know how low it is, what if it's even lower?
All of this requires a mature strategy and arrangement, not just looking at the movement, which in fact is not necessarily the right one.
As it is in me because I have accumulated btc relatively simply and will not be too aggressive, I only focus on initial practice and it is unlikely that this will be destroyed because of the aggressiveness of wanting to have btc with all its capital.
Think about the future, do it calmly. My principle.
