Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about DCA Assistant and cryptocurrency investing

What is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)?

+

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is an investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the asset's price. This approach reduces the impact of volatility and can lead to better long-term returns.

How it works:

  • Invest $100 every week in Bitcoin
  • When Bitcoin is $50,000, you get 0.002 BTC
  • When Bitcoin is $40,000, you get 0.0025 BTC
  • Over time, your average cost balances out

DCA removes emotional decision-making from investing and helps you build wealth systematically.
