On August 11, 2020, a business intelligence company bought 21,454 Bitcoin at roughly $11,650<\/a> per coin. Then over the next 6 years, it just kept buying. It bought through euphoric all-time highs, through an 80% market drawdown, through headlines declaring Bitcoin dead (again). Today that company, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), holds over 843,000 BTC<\/a>, more than 4% of all the Bitcoin that will ever exist, accumulated across more than a hundred separate purchases<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And it isn\u2019t just Strategy, BitMine Immersion has built one of the world\u2019s largest corporate ETH treasuries, accumulating more than 5.7 million ETH<\/a>, close to 5% of Ethereum\u2019s circulating supply, by steadily buying over time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The trend extends beyond corporate treasuries. On-chain data shows long-term holders added more than 2 million BTC<\/a> throughout the recent market downturn, pushing their supply toward record highs, while short-term holder supply shrank by roughly the same amount.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t a coincidence. The most veteran investors in the market weren\u2019t sitting on the sidelines waiting for a bottom. They were buying through the fear and the euphoria alike. They were exercising the principle behind an age-old strategy called dollar-cost averaging.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bitfinex<\/strong> Recurring Buy<\/strong> was designed so you can master Dollar-cost Averaging strategy straight from your phone.<\/p>\n

What is Dollar-cost Averaging?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is simple.<\/p>\n

Instead of dropping one big lump sum to buy an asset at a single price, you buy a fixed amount at regular intervals, whether daily, weekly, or monthly, regardless of price.<\/p>\n

It does a few things:<\/p>\n

It takes the timing decision off your plate<\/strong><\/h3>\n

No agonizing over the chart. Some of your buys will land near a peak. Others will land\u00a0 during sharp sell-offs. Over time, those highs and lows balance each other out, giving you a reasonable entry price without ever having to be right about the market.<\/p>\n

Your money stretches further at lower prices<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The same $100 grabbed 0.02 ETH at $4,900 last October, netted 0.055 ETH at around $1800 in July, 2026 \u2013 almost tripled the amount of coins for the exact same amount of money. Automatically, you accumulate the most when prices are low and the least when they\u2019re high, the opposite of what fear and greed push people to do.<\/p>\n

It pulls your average entry down.<\/strong> <\/h3>\n

Those cheap buys pull your average entry lower, which is what keeps you in the green over the long run.<\/p>\n

It takes emotion out of the equation.<\/strong> <\/h3>\n

No panic-selling the dip, no FOMO-buying the pump. Time in the market, not timing the market is how the whales do it.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what that looks like in practice. Take someone who bought $100 of Bitcoin<\/strong> on the first Monday of every month, starting January 2023. Here\u2019s where that leaves them by July 2026:<\/p>\n

Invested:<\/strong> $4,300, $100 at a time<\/p>\n

Average cost per coin:<\/strong> ~$49,700, even though Bitcoin ranged from $17K to $125K along the way<\/p>\n

Value today (BTC ~$66K):<\/strong> ~$5,537<\/p>\n

Return:<\/strong> about +29%, still in profit even with Bitcoin sitting well below its high<\/p>\n

\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Why DCA with Bitfinex Recurring Buy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On paper, buying a fixed amount every week is an easy plan. In practice, you have a life, and distractions can get in the way. It\u2019s hard to buy when you believe BTC is at an all time high and will go down in the short term or when plans get in the way.<\/p>\n

Every manual purchase is one more opportunity for a busy schedule to break your streak.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the real problem DCA solves, and Bitfinex Recurring Buy<\/strong>, available on Bitfinex Mobile Lite<\/strong> puts the consistency in place and automates your DCA plan.<\/p>\n

Set it up once, and your purchases execute automatically on your schedule, without any reminders, willpower, or 2am chart-checking.<\/p>\n

You stay in full control of the plan:<\/p>\n

What to buy<\/strong>: choose your cryptocurrency<\/p>\n

How much<\/strong>: an amount that fits your budget<\/p>\n

How often<\/strong>: daily, weekly, or monthly<\/p>\n

When<\/strong>: the exact day and time each purchase runs<\/p>\n

As long as your Exchange Wallet is funded, each purchase executes automatically as a market order on schedule. You can review your active recurring orders anytime: adjust the amount, change the frequency, or cancel the moment your strategy changes.<\/p>\n

Set it up in about two minutes<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n<\/div>\n

Open the Bitfinex mobile app and go to Account<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Toggle Lite Mode<\/strong> on.<\/p>\n

Tap Trade<\/strong> and choose the cryptocurrency you\u2019d like to buy.<\/p>\n

Tap Buy<\/strong>, then switch from One-Time<\/strong> to Recurring<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Choose your amount, schedule, day, and time.<\/p>\n

Confirm your Recurring Buy.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it. Your investing strategy is now on autopilot. Bitfinex handles the purchases for you, and you can adjust or cancel your Recurring Buy whenever you like.<\/p>\n

Built for every market cycle\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nobody knows where Bitcoin goes next. Not you, not the analysts, not even the company holding 4% of the supply.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What you can control is showing up. Strategy\u2019s six-year buying streak, through manias, crashes, and everything in between, is the most public demonstration ever run of what disciplined, unemotional and relentless accumulation looks like.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need their balance sheet to run their playbook. You just need a plan you\u2019ll stick to.<\/p>\n

Open Bitfinex Mobile Lite and set up your first Recurring Buy today.<\/p>\n

Make all the highs and lows work for you.<\/p>\n
