A study analyzing Bitcoin investments from October 2025 to September 2026 shows that using a dollar cost averaging (DCA) strategy—investing 100 euros monthly—resulted in an average purchase price 3.67% lower than the average market price. This method outperformed a lump sum investment made at the start by 33.6 percentage points, mainly because the Bitcoin price dropped significantly during the year. However, the advantage depends on market fluctuations; in rising markets, lump sum investments may perform better. Investors should also consider fees, spreads, and tax implications when choosing between DCA and lump sum strategies. The study highlights the importance of consistent investing and understanding the cost average effect without expecting it to protect from losses or guarantee returns.
