Lately, people keep asking me which is better—grid/DCA or going all-in in one shot. To put it bluntly, it depends on whether you want to make money or just want to sleep... Personally, I lean more toward grid/DCA. Whether you make money or not is secondary—I at least don’t have to stare at the K-line charts in the middle of the night and scare myself awake. That “instant thrill” from going all-in is definitely real, but the next day, when clickbait headlines start pushing “So-and-so is about to take off / is about to crash,” your mindset basically rides a roller coaster with it. It’s pretty exhausting.
Also, right now, RWA, U.S. bond yields, and on-chain yield products are often thrown into the same comparison. The more I look at it, the only thing I feel is this: the story can be pretty steady, but sleep isn’t necessarily. Anyway, I’ll just get myself a few “try-it-out tickets” and test the waters—my position is small enough that it won’t affect my mood. Being able to sleep is better than anything. That’s it for now.
