Scenarios
Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $3,081 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is -69.7%.
Lump sum instead — $2,800 all at once in Mar 2022: $93.32 (-96.7%) — DCA came out ahead.
Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Apr 2023): $851.03 on $1,500 invested (-43.3%).
Backtests use monthly closing prices. Stock dividends aren’t reinvested, so long-run equity returns are understated.

It's a cryptocurrency categorised under layer 1, with a market cap of about $3.0B.
It rates Medium-High Risk at 2.7/5, meaning real but ordinary risk — the kind most mainstream assets carry, with some factors scoring poorly.
What pushes the score up: market / volatility (3.7/5) and regulatory (3.0/5).
Scoring well: systemic / correlation at 1.0/5.
Not yet researched: supply & concentration, smart contract / technical, custody / bridge. These are excluded from the score rather than guessed, so the real risk may be higher than what’s shown.
Ratings summarise sourced facts against fixed rules — not investment advice, and no substitute for your own diligence.
