    Being reluctant about emergency funds as a Bitcoin investor has it's consequences, which is why no investor should ignore it, emergency funds is not something to joke with as you're  a long-term investor, cause it is the protective measure that should be embark upon by every Bitcoin investor.

    For me, any Bitcoin investor, I mean someone that is investing for a long-term, that have not started creating emergency funds, is just joking because, an investment like Bitcoin without such separate funds that we can rely on to Carter for your emergency needs, will definitely lead you into withdrawing from your hodlings, which might mark the end of your Bitcoin accumulation.
    A reserve fund is important not only because it gives you available funds to live on if an investment turns out to be a long term one. Reserve capital is also needed so that you can buy more of an asset if you choose a less than optimal entry point. Therefore, besides an emergency fund, you should also have additional reserve capital that you can use flexibly for investing.

    A "reserve fund" in the context that you are using emphasizes buying the dip rather than DCA, and this thread is about DCA which is also superior to buying the dip.  You seem to be wanting to suggest that buying the dip is better than DCA, which it is not.

    Do you want to argue about your claim? or to make your claim more directly rather than proclaiming that buying the dip as if there is actual value in maintaining a reserve fund that would be used for buying dips that may or may not end up happening rather than just using some or all of that money (that you would otherwise put into your reserve fund) to buy bitcoin regularly, persistently, consistently, ongoingly and perhaps even aggressively (in a DCA kind of style that is largely agnostic to dips and/or prices)?

    1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled as: "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k
