Frequently Asked Questions
What is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)?
Dollar Cost Averaging is an investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the asset's price. This reduces the impact of volatility and removes the need to time the market.
Is DCA a good strategy for Bitcoin?
Historically, DCA has been one of the most effective strategies for investing in Bitcoin. Because BTC is highly volatile, buying at regular intervals averages out your purchase price and reduces the risk of buying at a peak.
How is this calculator different from a projection tool?
This calculator uses real historical Bitcoin prices — not projections or predictions. It shows you what your actual returns would have been if you had started DCA'ing on a specific date in the past.
Where does the price data come from?
Bitcoin prices are sourced from CryptoCompare historical data. S&P 500 data uses monthly closing prices from Yahoo Finance. ARS/USD rates use approximate blue dollar (parallel market) rates.
Why compare Bitcoin DCA to the S&P 500?
The S&P 500 is the most common benchmark for investment returns. Comparing BTC DCA performance against S&P 500 DCA shows how Bitcoin has performed relative to traditional stock market investing using the same strategy.
Why include the Argentine Peso (ARS)?
Argentina has experienced significant currency devaluation over the past decade. Including ARS shows how holding fiat currency in a high-inflation economy compares to saving in Bitcoin — a powerful visual demonstration of Bitcoin's value proposition.
