I’ve been trading long enough to see dozens of blue-chip alts fade into nothing. Bitcoin? It’s the only one I’m not worried about 5–10 years from now. So how do you actually stack it over time?

Most people get it wrong. They trade Bitcoin like any alt buy every dip, sell every top, chase every pump. With $BTC , that just doesn’t work. You’re much better off accumulating over years, letting it become part of your long-term portfolio.

Step 1: Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)

The simplest way: buy on fixed intervals, no matter the price. This works for most people. You’re price-agnostic, consistent, and it removes all the stress of timing the market.

Step 2: Play Bull and Bear Cycles

Bitcoin moves in relatively predictable 4-year cycles: insane bull runs, followed by 70–90% pullbacks in the bear. You don’t need to wait for the bottom, but grabbing BTC on 30–50% pullbacks usually sets up really nice entries.

Two Ways to DCA:

1ļøāƒ£ Regular interval buys — totally price-agnostic, just stack consistently.

2ļøāƒ£ Buy during capitulation — when BTC dips 40%, 50%, 60%+, back the truck. These moments almost always lead to great discounted buys, and the bounce usually comes faster than you’d expect.

Pro tip: focus on high-timeframe charts, and don’t stress the small candles. Blood in the streets is where you find the best opportunities. Your goal is to accumulate more Bitcoin over time, because in the long run, BTC dominates the denominator.

It’s simple, but sticking to it when emotions run high is the hard part. Keep calm, buy smart, and let the time horizon work in your favor.
