Here's what I looked at when I sold a property and had some proceeds to filter into Bitcoin:
Lump Sum, Weekly DCA, Daily DCA, Mining, Bitcoin Adjacent stocks- MSTR, Miners etc.
What I decided to do was lump sum 5k and then Daily DCA the rest over a year. I did buy some MSTR and Hut 8, but I have since sold those positions. Made a decent profit on MSTR but hut8 not so much.
I didn't go with mining because I was concerned about the mining services companies at that time and managing the off peak, on peak rates at home to make sure I was profitable home mining was a pain in the ass. I looked into raising capital from a few folks via a bitcoin bond to invest in mining but it didn't pan out, had a couple people interested but ultimately decided just buying bitcoin was the best and least risky route.
Disclaimer: My decisions were based on the early days of the bear market. I knew we had a long slog ahead of us and I had a lot of time to DCA so your calculus might be different if you think price is going to get away from you.
