I made a simple DCA calculator, hope it's useful for someone
Hey r/bitcoin. I've been lurking here for a while and noticed there are a lot of posts from people asking if it's too late to start, or if small amounts are even worth it. Figured I'd try to build something that helps answer that.
It's a pretty straightforward DCA calculator that uses real historical BTC prices. You plug in an amount, a start date, and it shows what you'd have today. It also compares against the S&P 500 and a high-yield savings account which I thought was a nice touch.
For example $200/month since January 2021 would be about $20.2K today from $12,400 invested. Through the crash to $16K, FTX, all of it. Still up 62.8%.
I know the veterans here don't need a calculator to know DCA works, but maybe it's handy to share with someone who's still on the fence.
It's free, no signups or anything. Still a work in progress honestly so if anything looks off or you have ideas for features, I'm all ears.
