How to Set up a Recurring Investment in Bitcoin

In this guide, you will learn how to set up a recurring bitcoin investment with as little as €25.

What is a Recurring Investment?

A recurring investment refers to regularly buying an asset to build a large investment position in that asset over time.

For example, say you want to build a stock portfolio composed of European stocks. To do that, you could set up a weekly recurring investment in an ETF that tracks the EURO STOXX 50 stock index. By investing €50 euros weekly for several years, your small investments will grow into a multi-thousand euro stock portfolio.

The technical term for this investment strategy is dollar-cost averaging.

Dollar-cost averaging involves buying a fixed dollar (or euro) amount of an asset at regular intervals over a long period of time.

The idea behind this investment strategy is to “smooth out” volatility by investing a fixed amount each week or month regardless of the price at which the asset is trading. Moreover, it empowers small investors to build a large investment position over time without having to put a lot of initial capital money down.

Of course, you can apply dollar-cost averaging to bitcoin as well by setting up a recurring bitcoin investment.

In fact, many experts agree that bitcoin is well-suited for dollar-cost averaging due to its volatility and promising risk/reward ratio.

Now, let’s look at how you can dollar-cost average bitcoin by setting up a recurring bitcoin investment with Relai.
