Frequently Asked Questions

Is DCA effective for crypto?

DCA reduces the impact of crypto's extreme volatility. Investors who DCA'd $100/month into Bitcoin for the past 5 years have significantly outperformed one-time buyers at most price points.

How often should I DCA crypto?

Weekly or bi-weekly DCA is common for crypto due to high volatility. Some platforms (Coinbase, Swan Bitcoin) allow daily automatic purchases as small as $1.

What is the best crypto for DCA?

Bitcoin and Ethereum have the longest track records and deepest liquidity. Altcoins offer higher potential returns but with substantially higher volatility and failure risk — position size accordingly.
