There are two main ways people stack Bitcoin:
- Throw it all in at once (Lump Sum)
- Spread it out over time (DCA)
Historically, lump sum wins.
Why?
Because $BTC moves fast and hard — sitting on the sidelines waiting to deploy usually costs more than a bad entry.
But DCA isn’t useless.
It shines when you buy the top. Anyone who started averaging after the 2021 ATH knows this — it shortens recovery time and smooths the pain.
So yeah, DCA might underperform in bull markets, but it’s still a solid strategy for staying disciplined and keeping emotions out of the way.
