Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said long-term crypto investors should stick with dollar-cost averaging rather than trying to time the market. He posted a question on X on July 24 asking whether bull or bear markets offer better buying opportunities, then answered his own question the next day.
"DCA is a better strategy for long-term crypto investors than trying to perfect your entry," Zhao wrote. The original post drew more than 1.8 million views in two days, a sign of how much the debate matters to retail traders.
Dollar-cost averaging means committing a fixed amount at regular intervals, buying more when prices are low and less when they are high. It avoids the pressure of picking a single entry point. Zhao said investors who lack familiarity with basic strategies like DCA may struggle to hold positions through full cycles.
