Buy, cry, buy some more: 3 simple investment strategies from experts and influencers

Crypto investing without a strategy is a lottery: indeed, you can win, as well as you can lose. And the main problem is that you will never know why you have lost.

A strategy, even the right one, can’t guarantee your income. Still, it protects your assets and also prevents you from making unreasonable decisions based on emotions.

So, here are a few investment strategies used by your favorite influencers and experts in crypto.

DCA (dollar cost average)

Probably, the most popular investment strategy that is widely used in traditional investing and crypto is DCA, or dollar cost average. This is when you split an amount of money you are ready to invest (for instance, you divide $100 by 4) and choose the frequency of investing (for example, weekly).

YouTube and Twitter blogger Miss Teen Crypto is a big fan of this strategy.

“I buy periodically regardless of the price,” she said in the interview for buidlbee. “Seeing a few cycles in this space, I realized there is volatility, and this is a long-term play.”

Experts claim DCA is the easiest investment strategy for beginners pretty often. For example, it is a number one choice for big pey.

“The safest way to make money is dollar cost averaging into a few different decentralized and trusted assets over a 3–5 year period. This is the only way to make life-changing money other than starting a valuable business in crypto,” he recommends.

By the way, recently we have written about critics on DCA, or more like a recommendation: Reddit’s user hjrocks says this is a good strategy only for fundamental projects like BTC.

Buy at deep depression

Twitter blogger yourfriendSOMMI claims that the best crypto investment strategy is to buy at deep depression. “You have no competition because 95% of participants do not play this game,” he writes.

He is not the only one who thinks the crypto winter we are experiencing right now is a time of opportunity.

“Many people lament that they didn’t find the right time to buy crypto at a low price. Now is a good chance for those people,” he shares his opinion in his recent interview for buidlbee Web MasterMind blogger. YouTuber Crypto Aman says the same while claiming that now is the best time to invest in crypto. 

And last week, when we were talking on our Twitter Space AMA about NFTs with Web3 and NFT creator Jet, he also said this simple wisdom: “Do the opposite. When everyone is too afraid to buy — buy.”

By the way, you can listen to this AMA on our Twitter on record, and for those who prefer text, we are going to publish the central thoughts from this meeting on our website soon.

Buy and hold

Like DCA, the buy-and-hold strategy is something that is applied in traditional finances as well as crypto. What is buy and hold? Well, that is precisely what it sounds like. You invest, and you wait. No quick profit, only long-term goals. More than that, in Sanja Kon’s opinion, “if you’re bothered by short-term movements, probably crypto is not the best investment for you.” Sania is the CEO of multichain payments technology Utrust, so she knows what she is talking about.

As for holding, it is considered one of the best crypto investment strategies by Hami Crypto, for example. Though it does depend on the continuation: buy and hold… what coin?

And this is another parallel with DCA because many experts emphasize: “Look at the fundamentals.”

“The price of Bitcoin will never drop to zero,” claims Web MasterMind. “So invest 50% in fundamentally strong projects like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc., and invest them for the long term.”

How can I make money on this?

I think the best thing is that you can not only apply these strategies but combine them: split your investment money, buy some assets at deep depression, and well, hold it until crypto summer. And to decide what to buy, all experts have one piece of advice: research. Research, learn, and read buidlbee, of course 🙂
