Is this a good time to stop DCA BTC and focus on DCA altcoins?

[Gposas]

• Have you ever applied the DCA strategy in the crypto market?
• Do you think investors should stop DCA BTC to DCA altcoins with the expectation of making bigger profits in the 2025 altseason?
• Do you often refer to the opinions of experienced traders on the internet to adjust your crypto investment strategy?

1. I have been applying the DCA strategy for BTC and top coins since 2023 and am still continuing to do so. The rewards from the signature campaign on AltcoinsTalks can also be considered a part of the DCA strategy, around $40 per week.

2. BTC and ALTs are two sides of the same coin: there is a bitseason, there will be an altseason, so investors can diversify their portfolios with ALTs. I have also stopped actively DCA BTC to save capital for DCA ALTs, I focus on ETH and some other top coins like ADA, DOT, AVAX, NEAR... because they are quite safe.

3. I have gone through a phase of referring to other people trading opinions to imitate or adjust my strategy. Now I proactively analyze the market and share my views on AltcoinsTalks, then I receive feedback from the community to perfect my analysis and prediction.

I think that your opinion is appropriate right now. I am also agree with your prefer comment. I am also believe that if we stop DCA bitcoin and start DCA altcoin, i think that it will be appropriate in this situation. Because if we follow in cryptocurrency market, we can see that bitcoin is not stay in very well position. So if we want to create in DCA altcoin, suppose: ETH, ADA, DOT, AVAX etc coin is very perfect. So i think that we should trying to analysis in this crypto.

Every single individual in the Crypto space has a much more stronger belief in Bitcoin than any other ALTs.

At my early beginning in the Crypto industry, the most popular cryptocurrencies were BTC, ETH and LTC, I heard alot of people making positive reviews about this tokens as of then. Now, where is ETH and LTC? Most people now see these tokens as shitcoins because they couldn't maintain the same pace as Bitcoin.

From my point of view, BTC remains the King of all cryptocurrencies and as long as any individual can purchase it bit by bit with the DCA method, then there's no reason to stop.
On the other hand, it is still okay to diversify the portfolio by adding some ALTS too but BTC should not be forgone.

In Q2 2025, Bitcoin DCA is getting more interesting, because we have just seen the Bitcoin market experiencing a correction phase... this could even be a great opportunity for those of us who will make Bitcoin a long-term investment for at least two years or more... routinely buying Bitcoin every week is a wise choice...

For altcoin DCA, only a few top altcoins are recommended, such as ETH, XRP and BNB... for SOLANA, do it at your own risk... yes, the opportunity is great, because we will enter a bearish and correction phase until the next halving cycle.

The market should rebounce eventually; we can't be having dip after dip all the time.

And I do think it will happen till the end of 2025, imo.

Surely what you're saying is what will happen in time when the market doesn't keep going down, but in time it will also increase. If there is no increase, then there will be many investors who will not want to invest there.
Your estimate is that it could happen like that, because it is being waited until Q4 of this year that there will be a movement to increase high.

Market trends do not always operate as most of us expect them to and that is why we always have to set our outlook on potential in a given manner at some point in time. This means that when conditions have not given any signals to rise, it does not mean that the opportunity is not growing slowly. We are now in the interim phase that cannot be long probably stretching for some few weeks. There are probably many potential buyers waiting for it thinking they need a strong signal, but often most large operations are not made on the basis of an ideal situation. Therefore, the belief of shifting significant position will happen at the end of the year is not an idle hope but based on ability to read trend line. Actually, it is much better to stay calm in a situation like this as it makes it easier to assess things properly.

So many investors, myself included, have paid a high price to understand this. Perhaps the difficulty comes from the very impressive success that many altcoins brought to investors during the altseason, for example, x100, x1000 like AXS or SOL in the 2021 season.

Even though BTC increases much slower than many tokens during altseason, in the long term it still has more stability and security for investor accounts. ETH's weakness this season is the clearest evidence of BTC's advantage over the rest of the market. DCA is a smart strategy in the crypto market, but investors also need to have BTC in their portfolio for safety.

I do hope that tariff wars won't return with their sentiment in the invesors' eyes - in that case, everything should be good in the long run.

Or if some exchange,big one, would be drained.. Would have a similar effect.

When we all know that dealing with bitcoin is more safe and profitable than any other altcoins, so tell me why we should leave the entire bitcoin network for altcoins and still apply a strategy that may not work on alts, these coins are not the same and we can't boast and be confident in them, bitcoin will always be my own choice and I will personally invest on it only, if you see me considering altcoins, then I've gone far with bitcoin and can't still use the same strategy for bitcoin on altcoins.

The main portion of our efforts should be put in BTC, if we want stability in our future, that is.

All the alts are there and they won't disappear from our radars, but they are mostly moving where BTC is headed (the ones that aren't premined fully, at least..)

Exactly. Investors only want to invest in Bitcoin if it can increase its price only. If there is no chance of Bitcoin to increase again, the investors will never buy again. So far, investors still keep buying Bitcoin although there are people who also sell their Bitcoin gradually. Most of us still feel confident that we may have a big pump again in Q3 or in Q4. It is also the reason that investors still want to buy/invest in Bitcoin.

I think it's not just going up, but if there is certainty that Bitcoin will increase again, then when it is corrected, many will make purchases and hold until it is time for it to increase.
I agree, everyone really hopes that there will be another chance for Bitcoin to increase, because 2025 is still a long way off, and it could be in accordance with what you said that Bitcoin will be able to increase and we will wait patiently.

There is no time limit for the bitcoin investment DCA and you can purchase it as anytime and hodle. I don't know which of the altcoin I will recommend foe investors to invest but I used to recommend bitcoin for people. DCA means you invest in bitcoin with a plan with a specific amount of money at all the weeks, months or years and it should be a long term investment because if you use short term investment for DCA you invest at lost.

If you invest with DCA for a long term you make profit at all time.

Bullish season is still long, so it is better as you suggest we remain patient and wait because the bitcoin price is likely to rise again.
We can buy bitcoin again when it is corrected and hold it until the price goes up again, then we sell it to make a profit. Looking at the current bitcoin price when compared to ATH, we still have the opportunity to make a purchase now

I know many people who have become wealthy by accumulating BTC in the long term, specifically over 8-10 years. However, I'm not in such a financially comfortable position; I only have a small amount of capital and need to use the money more regularly. I can only DCA seasonally.

Specifically, I DCA BTC during the 2022-2023 downtrend and will RDCA BTC during the 2024-2025 uptrend. The profits will be used to DCA BTC in the 2026-2027 downtrend. The same approach can be applied to altcoins but with a certain delay since altcoins usually recover after BTC. For example, this season, the altseason hasn't arrived yet, causing me a slight loss. Fortunately, BTC is still bringing me some profit.

Right. We are still in the bullish stage and we have not yet seen the signs that the bearish season is near. For me, the only thing that is happening is the retracement, and I think Bitcoin is just waiting for the right timing before it explodes. So if we can wait, let's wait. Bitcoin is not like other altcoins that will have a hard time going up because of its low volatility, and large market cap, but Bitcoin is different from them, it will really go up no matter how large the market cap is because there are still many rich people in the world who are willing to invest in Bitcoin for the long term.

         -     Right, this is the logical reason why investors really buy bitcoin whether they are long or short term holders, because there is no other reason why they buy. And then you are holders or traders that means you will wait then sell when you are satisfied with the profit you have in bitcoin.

So of course, dca is often used even if we say you are doing it short or long-term, as long as you have something to buy and you believe in coin assets, just take the opportunity, just simple as that.

Even though it's true that no other cryptocurrency can come near Bitcoin in terms of being the best investment option, ETH's weakness in recent times doesn't make it a less deserving candidate to be in one's portfolio. If you are choosing Bitcoin as the first priority, ETH should at least be there after it because it has a long history, and whether we believe it or not, it's probably one of the most trusted altcoins in the market, and so many projects and tokens trust it and its protocol.

That being said, I don't believe that altcoins have a season of their own because the mover of the market is always Bitcoin. Would altcoins be able to have a bull run if Bitcoin is in a decline? No, you will see them follow the path where Bitcoin is going, so they basically all depend on Bitcoin.
