This is why I just save enough from my paycheck to make smaller daily purchases of the same dollar value.
If I spent it all on payday last week, I'd have missed the 'dip', then I'd have been paid tomorrow and (depending on bullshit whatever market volatility) maybe missed it, or caught one.
I don't care. I'm not timing this shit anymore. I gave that up in 2020.
I'm just being consistent.
Gfy.

I'm stacking sats daily as well and I just keep slowly but surely growing my Bitcoin bag!

I'm not an investor, I don't trade, I don't leverage (though I have fucked with 1000 sats on LN markets on Breez a couple times 🤦)
I've only parted with sats to buy a few things from a couple plebs here, and a few gift cards.
It's just my savings account now, and until a utxo is justified it gives me the ability to budget some for zapping notes a little here each day.
My fiat bank only has enough to cover the fiat bills at this point. And Im not insolvent yet.

I now have two DDCAs going... 😅
I just got set up for strike, so... I'm testing it out.
I wish I could move more fiat into BTC, but my past bad decisions are preventing me.
KYC?
Mobile app required?
Yes.
Yes.
I'm already KYC'd for cashapp. I've given up trying to not KYC my DCA at this point. Need sats more than privacy. Cold wallet is the next step.
Have you just tried buying from a real exchange instead of a "portal" like strike or cash app?
Define "real exchange," please.
A "real exchange" will let you buy more then just bitcoin
That's still not helping.
Example, please?
An example would be like coinbase or kraken here in the states
Coinbase is gross.
Kraken is okayish.
I only buy BTC or on rare occasion exchange some for XMR. I don't muck about with anything else.
In my opinion they are both better the strike or cash app…
But that’s just me…
Why do you prefer them?
Well right off the bat I’ve used them both for a long time now… probably since they both started…
I have had absolutely zero issues with either one…
I have extremely high limits on both & can buy otc if I want…
I’ve used the coinbase card before and that’s awesome sauce, very over looked by the community cuz kyc/aml but it works & that’s all that matters imho
I generally think everyone gives them both grief cuz they let you buy "shitcoins".
Honestly, that sounds good. I just don't have a lot of use for all of the extended features. I just want to turn dollars into sats and have found cashapp and now strike to be the fastest and cheapest way to do that in my case.
Well they both definitely have less fees involved that’s for sure but I don’t sweat the difference.
And I know nobody cares but I do not agree with Jack & I do not want to give his company’s any of my money.
That's very fair. I'm not a sycophant, either. That's one of the other reasons I'm auditioning strike. 😁
Ugh I think it’s better to trust the one Jack over the other still?
I'm vaguely aware.
I just DCA with them. Hit the minimum free transfer amount to my various wallets. It just works. Except that on my new phone, the app thinks it's running in a simulation or emulator for some reason and won't install. 😅
Bum.Mer
Yeah I get it. Especially with non-kyc premiums.
Non-KYC premiums can kiss my fat white butt. That eats into my stack. No thanks. My goal is as many sats as I can every day forever if I can help it.
KYC sucks, but, it's not easy to get them from me once they are off of other platforms. I do still need to move some of my stuff to "better" wallets, but... I'm good for now.
Plus there are ways between LN, dare I be called a shitcoiner, Liquid swaps and bolz, joinmarketsbypu could add plausible boating deniability to it if need be.
They're coming for me either way, kyc sats or not. I got other problems they'll likely attack first.
They'll zoning law ruin me 😂
Yeah... I expect to have issues with zoning enforcement if I end up in a place with steppers running things.
But that's also what shotguns and dogs are for...
Yea I missed the 48k cuz I was out of dollars, I need to set up a dca, but when I have dollars I just want to trade them for bitty asap
I have. Indeed burned that "daily dry powder" on substantial dips. Mainly why I wrote this note ,😂
Nothing taught me to consistently stack and never sell, more effectively than thinking i could succeed at trading. When the price kept going up relentlessly after the covid crash, i had like no sats left by the time i realized it’s just gonna be a bumpy ride that goes up forever, and that trading is literally gambling. Better “late” than never though ✊
During COVID was me just going ooooohhhhh 👀 in a sweaty machine shop. The kind of folk gambling killing themselves at a 6 30 to 5 with booze and cigarettes who didn't skip a beat.
I'm still there. I don't mind it. I'm just trying to fix that duality of directions the two fatalist and optimist contend with on a personal level at this point.
Fuck trading 😂
