I often see people asking, "Can BNB still catch a ride?" It reminds me of my anxious self in 2022.



At that time, I was watching BNB's candlestick charts, wondering whether to buy the dip, but the result was always: buying too early and getting caught, buying too late and chasing the high. It was only later that I realized one thing—BNB is not really for "gambling," but for "holding." A close friend of mine has been dollar-cost averaging since 2022. At first, he was afraid of declines, but now his gains are enough for retirement. Why? Because the real profit logic isn’t about avoiding corrections but about stubbornly buying in.

**How solid is the underlying logic of BNB?**

Many still see BNB as just a pure exchange token, but that’s a shallow understanding:

**The deflation engine is turning**: A major exchange uses quarterly profits to buy back and burn BNB. In October alone, they burned $1.2 billion worth of BNB—that’s about $11,000 burned every minute. The circulating supply keeps decreasing, and scarcity will only grow stronger.

**There’s real on-chain demand**: BNB isn’t just a tool for discounted trading fees; it’s also the "fuel" for DeFi and gaming on the entire BNB chain. The active on-chain user base has been over 3 million for years, constantly consuming BNB daily.

**Resilience to dips is crucial**: In this bull market, BTC and BNB are rare in that they’ve risen over 40% after hitting new all-time highs, indicating that big funds’ confidence in them is truly increasing.

Therefore, BNB’s long-term value isn’t driven by news, but purely by the dual forces of "consumption + deflation."

**My dollar-cost averaging approach: forget timing, just buy**

The essence of DCA is to abandon predictions and use discipline to counteract volatility. My main approach involves three principles…
BNB0.28%
BTC0.36%

Really, after holding for so long, I finally understand that BNB should be accumulated, not traded. DCA is the right approach; don't think about bottom-fishing anymore. With such a strong coin-burning engine, the circulating supply will only decrease. I also haven't looked at the K-line since I started weekly DCA last year. Looking back now, I realize how foolish I was to be so indecisive every day back then.

It's the same old dollar-cost averaging argument again—easy to say, hard to do. Wish I had known to go all-in in 2022; now is FOMO really the time to jump in? Deflation + consumption sounds tough, but when will retail investors get a chance to profit? Hey buddy, do you want to cut your losses now? Weekly dollar-cost averaging sounds simple, but persistence is hell.

Dollar-cost averaging is indeed the truth. Don't ask if you can get on board, just ask if you're willing to stick with it.

Honestly, the weekly dollar-cost averaging plan that I've been sticking to since 2022 is really tough, it tests your mentality. I used to be just like you, hesitant about whether to buy or not. Now I understand that you should treat it like living expenses and invest regularly without overthinking.
