How $100 a Month in Bitcoin Since 2015 Could Turn Into $632,000 by 2026
A new analysis shows the long-term benefits of dollar-cost averaging (DCA) in Bitcoin. Investors who put $100 monthly into Bitcoin since 2015 could see their portfolio grow to over $632,000 by May 2026. The data comes from Coinbird, a crypto comparison platform used by more than two million people each year. Coinbird’s Bitcoin DCA Calculator reveals striking returns for consistent investors. Someone starting a $100 monthly plan in 2015 would achieve gains of around +4,515% by mid-2026. Even those beginning near the May 2021 market peak would still earn +84.34% over five years.
Yet the strategy has faced challenges. During the 2022 bear market, DCA investors saw their portfolios drop by as much as -76.72%. The tool also highlights that lump-sum investing outperformed DCA over shorter periods—one, two, three, and four years.
Coinbird’s free calculator lets users test different scenarios without cost. The platform operates independently, providing market intelligence to help investors compare strategies. The findings confirm that DCA can deliver strong long-term growth despite short-term volatility. Investors using this method still faced steep drawdowns, including a 76.72% decline in 2022. The calculator remains available for anyone exploring Bitcoin investment approaches.
