No range of outcomes here: that needs at least 13 monthly closes and this asset has 10. A band built on fewer would be describing luck rather than volatility, and it would come out narrower — and so calmer-looking — than the asset really is.

Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $1,009 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +190.4%.

Lump sum instead — $1,000 all at once in Dec 2025: $1,754 (+75.4%) — DCA came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Aug 2026): $234.24 on $200 invested (+17.1%).

Backtests use monthly closing prices. Stock dividends aren’t reinvested, so long-run equity returns are understated.

There isn’t enough researched data to give it an overall rating yet — only 43% of the scoring weight is backed by facts, below the 60% needed. The score shown is partial and covers only what’s known.

What pushes the score up: market / volatility (3.0/5).

Scoring well: liquidity at 1.3/5.

Not yet researched: supply & concentration, smart contract / technical, custody / bridge, governance / team, regulatory. These are excluded from the score rather than guessed, so the real risk may be higher than what’s shown.
