About the DCA calculation
Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is an investment strategy that consists of investing fixed amounts at regular intervals, regardless of price. Its main advantage: it reduces timing risk and smooths out the high volatility of the crypto market.
This calculator uses periodic compound interest: each period you contribute the indicated amount, and the accumulated balance compounds at the periodic rate derived from the APY. The formula is the future value of an annuity.
Halving cycle
Every ~4 years, Bitcoin halves the new supply emitted per block (from 3.125 BTC to 1.5625 BTC in April 2028). Historically, the 12-18 months after each halving have marked the cycle peaks (2013, 2017, 2021), followed by bear markets retracing 70-85%. The progress bar shows how much of the current cycle has elapsed.
Disclaimer: this calculator is educational. Historical BTC/ETH returns do not guarantee future results. Crypto volatility is extreme. Never invest more than you can afford to lose. This is not financial advice.
