2025 has concluded with such a decline. Bitcoin has fallen from 95.4k at the beginning of the year to settle at 87.9k, a total decrease of 7.9% for the year. To be honest, seeing the green on the screen actually feels quite comfortable—because it means there’s another opportunity to buy at a low point.

This is my 59th record in my ten-year dollar-cost averaging plan, and the 42nd time adding to my position during a dip. After exhausting the accumulated excess funds in the previous round (early December), I still had some bullets left. This time, I simply took out an additional 2000U principal, plus the originally planned 1000U, totaling 3000U to invest. Considering the current discount of USDT, when converted to Satoshi, it’s roughly 437U, and at a market price of 87.7k, I directly bought 498,272 Satoshi.

The current position size has reached 14.11 million Satoshi, with an average cost down to 58.9k, and the paper profit rate has climbed to 41%. Looking at the growth of the principal, it increased from 39,000 to 60,000 within a year, a 53.8% increase in investment. Interestingly, the position size only grew by 28.8%, which shows the power of building positions at low prices.

There’s still a distance to reach financial freedom, as the position value is still far from 500,000U, but each addition brings me closer to that goal. In 2025, such market conditions actually provided us with the best opportunity to get on board.
