DCA'ing when the price is dropping feels like you're throwing money away. But that's when the math actually works in your favor.
You're buying more Bitcoin for the same dollars. You're lowering your cost basis with every single purchase. The week the price drops 20% and you DCA anyway? That week compounds harder than the weeks you buy near local peaks.
Stop waiting for the perfect entry. The perfect entry was yesterday. The second-best entry is today. The third-best entry is next week.
Your stack doesn't care about your timing anxiety. It cares that you kept buying.
