Crypto DCA calculator and backtests

Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) means buying a fixed amount at regular intervals instead of all at once. Below: what $100 per month would have become for 60 cryptocurrencies, using historical weekly closing prices. Pick a coin to run your own simulation.

Historical simulation, not a forecast or advice. Uses weekly closing prices in USD (USDT pairs); ignores fees, spreads and taxes. Past performance does not predict future results; crypto prices can fall to zero. Disclaimer · Methodology.

How the DCA backtest works

For each month we buy $100 worth of the coin at the first weekly close of that month, then value all accumulated units at the latest price. Results exclude exchange fees (typically 0.1%–1.5% per purchase) and taxes. Coins appear from the date their USDT market opened on Binance, so early history may be missing for older coins.
