Actually in this case there is nothing easy in my opinion because after all even though in simple terms DCA is buying bitcoin consistently in a certain amount but in the end this is also not easy because after all when we do DCA in fact it is not that easy because there must be some considerations and planning that is really mature from the start so that DCA itself is not an easy thing to do and not everyone can do it.
I personally don't really like to think it's easy because in the end, applying the theory of DCA will actually be much more difficult than imagined, especially in maintaining the consistency that we have to do so there is nothing easy in this even though the collection is through DCA.
DCA is simply increasing the sampling frequency of a function that you don't know because the future price of Bitcoin is unknown.
So, if you lump sum you basically take a single point snapshot of the function.
As you can see, it all depends on the future price to see which strategy was best. If the price goes down in the relevant period of time, DCA was better.
If the price goes up, lump sum was better. That's pretty much it.
The fact of the matter is that an overwhelming majority of people whether rich or medium or poor do not have any choice except to DCA. They do not have any lump sum available to them, so it is largely a stupid-ass hypothetical to be asking which one is better when a vast majority of folks have no choice.
Sure, anyone could be in situations in which s/he gets some extra pay or some kind of a bonus or has some situation in which a bunch of cash comes available at one time, and then at that point, he has a coins to buy right away or to also include DCA and/or buying on the dip. Having a lump sum cash available and then choosing either DCA or buying on dip are ways to delay and structure buys, and DCA delays/structures based on time and buy on dip delays/structures based on price dips that might not end up happening.. .yet of course, the amounts of the buys and the increments of the buys on the dip can be established in advance with an understanding that they might not end filling.
When DCA is regularly done as soon as the income comes in (or is known to be available), then it is not being deployed in any kind of delay (or waiting) strategy since the buys are made soon after the money comes available.
There is a certain value in buying when the money comes available, yet if a bunch of money comes available at once, there might be some hesitation to use all of that to buy right away rather than considering some of that money for DCA and/or buying on dips.
The DCA is the best key points of accumulate Bitcoin and also a easier way especially for those that are new into the crypto aspect it really help them to grow their Bitcoin gradually without having a sums amount of money at once, because is true DCA anyone who have interest on Bitcoins can acquire a lot of Bitcoin without some issues.
Yeah, it's a great alternative but if someone has enough money they can just complete the both strategy of lumpsum and DCA. Personally, I'd like to do a lumpsum so that I can no longer use the money after buying Bitcoin and I'll have to be patient on it. My past mistake of selling too early probably is making me decide this way because I have learned the hardest way by doing so. But if someone don't have that much and they have scheduled receiptment of their funds, DCA is no doubt the best strategy.
In fact, there is no harm in both methods, DCA or lump sum, in accumulating our investment assets. Actually, there is a good side to the technique of purchasing at once (lump sum) in large quantities, when we get a cheaper price. And when we want to re-accumulate our investment assets, we have to wait for the price we want and as we know, no one can predict or guarantee price movements and of course rare assets that we know are being fought over in various parts of the world.
but of course the price we want is difficult to achieve and of course we will get a much more expensive price than before and from here we can get the average price of our investment and of course we have to be patient over a long period of time to get maximum returns from this investment and the lump sum technique is much more profitable in this case because we buy our investment in large amounts.
You are talking about lump sum as if it were buying on dip. Buying on dip and lump sum are two different concepts, and sure sometimes they overlap, but if you are merely holding back some money that you could invest right away and you are waiting for a dip, then that sounds more like buying on dip rather than lump sum, at least to me.
