In plain English

What is Shiba Inu?

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is a decentralized cryptocurrency launched in August 2020 as a community-driven project. Inspired by Dogecoin, SHIB quickly gained attention for its strong online community, the "Shib Army." The project aims to build a vibrant ecosystem, including its decentralized exchange, ShibaSwap. Known as the "Dogecoin Killer," Shiba Inu is more than just a meme token. Its ecosystem supports various uses like staking, liquidity pools, and NFTs. While SHIB's value is speculative, its popularity highlights growing interest in meme-based cryptocurrencies.

What is DCA?

Start small, and keep it steady.

What is DCA, and how would it have worked for Shiba Inu?

DCA stands for dollar-cost averaging. You buy a fixed amount at regular times, like €25 every week, whatever the price is. When the price is low the same money buys more, and when it's high it buys less, so you don't have to guess the right moment.

  • Why people use itIt takes out the guesswork, and small regular amounts are easier to keep up.
  • What it can't doIt doesn't guarantee a profit. If the price keeps falling, you can still lose money.
  • Set it and let it runA recurring buy in the app repeats on its own. Check in now and then, and change the amount if your plans change.

A quick example

€100 a month for 3 months, with made-up prices

MonthYou put inPriceYou get (BTC)
January€100€50,0000.00200
February€100€40,0000.00250
March€100€60,0000.00167
Total€3000.00617

Same €100 each month: the lower the price, the more SHIB you get.

Your average price: €48,649

That's lower than the €50,000 average of the three prices, because the same €100 bought more when the price was low.
