A Market Expert Advocates DCA Method for XRP Investment, Sharing His Approach to Ensure Wealth Over Five Years
Despite XRP’s price largely struggling since February 2025, some astute investors have leveraged the current market efforts to position future substantial gains as significant profits. This method often works, as market expert Edoardo Farina repeatedly supports it.
XRP DCA Advocate
In his latest commentary, Farina noted that this method involves dollar-cost averaging (DCA) into XRP, which is what has made him wealthy. He claims that being able to ensure wealth by purchasing small amounts of XRP daily for five years is the key.
For beginners, dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is a strategy where investors consistently commit a specific amount into an asset at regular intervals, regardless of the price. Notably, this helps mitigate the impact of market volatility and reduces the risk of making poor timing decisions.
If an investor aims to purchase 100 XRP every week for a year, regardless of whether XRP’s trading price is $0.5 or $2, they would continue to employ this strategy. A classic example of DCA is MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin buying activity, where the company has accumulated 506,137 BTC since August 2020, yielding $10.8 billion in profit.
However, Farina advocates for a DCA strategy involving XRP, which he believes is a better option. “DCA is the cheat code that no one talks about,” he quipped, referring to the founder of Alpha Lions Academy.
XRP Offers More Gains Than Bitcoin
Interestingly, crypto analytics confirmed earlier this month that had MicroStrategy incorporated DCA into XRP instead of BTC, it could have seen an increase of $60 billion in profits.
Notably, while discussing his personal experiences in recent comments, Farina suggested that if there were significant gains in XRP over the past five years, the next five could also prove to be fruitful if DCA is employed.
Farina then shared a screenshot of a trade he executed in January 2021. The data showed he converted 0.33 BTC, worth 8,618 euros at the time, into 45,425 XRP. During that period, Bitcoin traded at 26,115 euros, while XRP’s trading price was 0.19 euros.
Four years later, Farina does not regret his decision. Currently, 45,425 XRP is valued at 103,114 euros, with XRP trading at 2.27 euros. Had he retained the 0.33 BTC, the investment would be worth 26,778 euros, as Bitcoin is trading at $81,146 at the time of writing.
It is noteworthy that most of XRP’s impressive performance emerged following Donald Trump’s victory in November 2024. While Bitcoin and other markets also saw rallies, XRP outperformed them. Since November 2024, XRP’s growth rate against BTC has been 284%, with a 10.26% increase just this month, despite ongoing struggles.
