DCA Calculator
See how dollar-cost averaging into crypto could grow your money over time
💡 What is DCA? Dollar-cost averaging means investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals (e.g., $500 every month) regardless of price. You buy more coins when prices are low and fewer when prices are high, which lowers your average cost over time.
Why use this? Instead of guessing the perfect entry point, you can see how investing consistently would perform in different market conditions — bull, bear, or volatile. Helps you decide how much to invest monthly and what returns to realistically expect.

Why compare scenarios? DCA works best in volatile or bear markets because you accumulate more coins at lower prices. In a bull market, you'd be better off buying all at once (lump sum). The comparison helps you decide whether DCA is right for your outlook.
