The update gives investors a tighter, more consistent cadence to build long-term positions, while keeping the process simple, automated, and easy to follow.</div><div><br></div><div>CoinDCX has also introduced XIRR (Extended Internal Rate of Return) tracking, an industry-standard metric that provides users with an accurate view of the annualised returns generated through recurring investments, helping them better evaluate portfolio performance over time.</div><div><br></div><div>Commenting on the upgrade, Minal Thukral Executive VP - Growth & Crypto Business Head  CoinDCX, said, “ SIP has consistently been one of the most popular investment products on CoinDCX, and one of the most common requests we've received from our community has been the ability to invest daily and monthly. With SIP 2.0, we've built an experience around how people actually invest, not around market cycles. Whether someone prefers to invest daily, weekly, or monthly, they now have the flexibility to build a disciplined investment habit in a way that fits their financial routine.</div><div><br></div><div>Many investors want to participate in crypto for the long term but are often held back by market volatility or the pressure of finding the 'perfect' entry point. SIP 2.0 is designed to remove that friction. Along with flexible investment frequencies starting from just ₹100, we've introduced XIRR-based performance tracking, giving users a transparent view of how their recurring investments are performing over time. Our goal is to make long-term crypto investing simpler, more accessible, and rooted in consistency rather than market timing."</div><div><br></div><div>Systematic investing has become increasingly popular across asset classes as investors look to average acquisition costs over time instead of making lump-sum investments.</div>
