Volatility strategies in decentralized funds
Strategy 1: DCA But Smarter.
This strategy expands on basic dollar-cost averaging by teaching a low-risk method for "buying the dip" with existing assets, potentially improving long-term entry points.
2. Borrow Against Your Hodlings
This post will explain how to use DeFi lending protocols to borrow stablecoins against your cryptocurrency holdings. This provides liquidity during downturns without the need to sell, acting as a hedge against volatility.
3: The Simple Power of Hodling.
A foundational piece arguing that for most people, the "HODL" strategy—patiently buying and holding quality assets—often outperforms active trading in volatile markets while requiring less time and skill.
A simple upgrade for volatile markets.
Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is a fundamental strategy, but it can be made more responsive to market fluctuations without becoming a full-time trader. The goal is not to time the market perfectly, but rather to increase your average buy price by being more strategic during times of high fear.
One useful low-risk strategy is to occasionally "borrow from yourself." You can use a DeFi lending platform to borrow a small amount of stablecoins against your current holdings if you notice a significant market panic, which is frequently characterized by extensive news coverage and sharp price declines.
Use this to buy the dip, effectively moving your DCA allocation forward for the next few months. Then, use your upcoming earnings to repay the loan. This exposes you to potential market timing gains with low risk, provided you have stable finances and borrow prudently.
