The enduring myth of DCA in high-growth, high-volatility assets

It feels like we're constantly pushing the narrative that Dollar-Cost Averaging is the universally superior strategy, particularly in crypto. But in assets that can realistically pull 70-80% corrections, then multiply again, I wonder if DCA merely guarantees you're continuously buying down on a declining asset without ever truly optimizing entry. We see $ADA today at $0.1609, down over 3% on the day, but it's traded from $0.1607 to $0.16792. For something like this, wouldn't a more tactical approach to major support levels, rather than blind weekly buys, offer better compounding returns over the long haul, even if it means missing some upside? The risk of holding too much through sustained downturns seems understated. Change my mind, or at least challenge this perspective.
