I'm reading a random finance book right now, and damn, I'm honestly surprised at this chart.

It basically says that #Bitcoin DCA underperformed lump sum by an incredible 96% between 2014 - 2020.

If you consider the gains, it makes sense.

What if you lump summed early Dec 2017?

I'm surprised it's not higher given the duration.

Look at the other assets Bro 😂

What are the 2 columns?

DCA underperformance compared to lump sum over a 12 months period.

Oh yeah - 96% underperformance is crazy huge.

#Bitcoin has more real money, so the DIP will be lesser compare to much #alts. The more debts money, they tend to move based on economic reports.

Yeah, although lump-sum depends somewhat on your luck to time the market if you make regular big lump sums, it makes sens that it performs better, since you continually buy big portions of dips vs small portions of everything.

Here's a calculator I made a while ago for a guy who's trying to start a loan business, making the lump-sum > DCA argument. faucet21.com

Nice thanks Mate! I‘ll check it out.

Not trying to plug his business, but the calculator is interesting 🤣

Does that mean DCA but buying on the upper price zone every time?
