Honestly, I’ve never been the type to advise people to blindly throw money into BTC. But if I had to give a suggestion, I’m serious — every young person should try dollar-cost averaging.



The reason is pretty straightforward. The cash in your and my hands doesn’t have a true value anchor. Central banks keep flooding the economy with liquidity, and in the end, it’s our purchasing power that pays the price. Money depreciates slowly over time — this isn’t some conspiracy theory, it’s an economic reality. The beauty of BTC is that it converts fiat currency into a decentralized, fixed-supply scarce asset. Although you can’t buy groceries directly in the short term, in the long run, its global consensus and anti-inflation characteristics have already outperformed traditional savings.

The benefit of dollar-cost averaging is that it helps avoid the psychological shadow of "buying at the top." You don’t need to watch the market every day guessing short-term rises and falls, nor do you need to tinker with timing. As long as you accept its value logic, sticking to it month after month is the easiest way for ordinary people to participate in alternative asset allocation. In the next ten years, we will inevitably have to face the reality of fiat devaluation. BTC and gold should be part of young people’s asset portfolios.

Let me say a few more blunt truths:

The lower class is squeezed dry during peacetime, and used as cannon fodder during wars; class division is hard to reverse, the poor are busy surviving, and their brains are consumed by short videos; to avoid trouble, speak kindly and avoid arguing; the system is essentially built on human imagination, and elites maintain their hierarchy through these illusions; the value of connections = what you can exchange, useless relationships are better not to have; society rewards winners, so you must win first; you can’t rely on anyone else, in the end, it’s all about yourself; besides illness, all other pain stems from cognitive issues; when judging a person’s words, first look at their interests and alliances; the most valuable thing is the present — give your all now, dollar-cost average into BTC, and only after ten years will the true results show.

In 2026, I wish everyone smooth trading. I only deal with spot trading; I don’t touch anything virtual. If you want to avoid pitfalls steadily and make money gradually, don’t wander alone in the crypto world.

Alright, I see some truth in what you're saying, but the key is still having spare money, right? --- Dollar-cost averaging is basically betting on fiat currency continuing to depreciate over the next ten years, and I’m willing to bet on that. --- That last sentence really hit home; you really can't rely on anyone. --- Real friends are in the actual market; everything else is nonsense. --- The underlying assets have indeed been drained, so we need to find ways to save ourselves. --- Persisting month after month sounds easy, but how many people can stick with it for ten years? --- I understand this logic, but can an ordinary worker really set aside spare money to invest in BTC? --- I agree that the value of connections equals the value of exchange; that’s very insightful. --- Instead of listening to random talk, doing your own research is more reliable. --- See the true results in ten years; hopefully, it’s not bloodshed, haha.

Ha, isn't this just a replica of my blood, sweat, and tears story... Can dollar-cost averaging avoid the peak? How come I always manage to hit the mark perfectly every time?

Really, investing regularly is the right approach. But to be honest, it still depends on an individual's risk tolerance.

Damn, that's too harsh. No one dares to say it so directly.

No hype, no negativity. Dollar-cost averaging is indeed less exhausting than watching the market every day. To be honest, the interest from the bank has already been eaten up. Investing a little BTC each month and accumulating slowly, since the idle money is just sitting there. That last heartfelt part really hit home—relying on yourself is the true way to go.
