Flat fees and $10
Some platforms charge a flat fee on small purchases rather than a percentage. A flat $0.99 on a $10 buy is 9.9% gone before the price moves; the same $0.99 on $100 is under 1%. If you buy in small amounts regularly, look for a platform that charges a percentage on small buys, and check the spread as well.
$10 at a time
Buying a fixed amount like $10 every week or month is called dollar-cost averaging. It evens out the price you pay over time but doesn't protect you from a falling price or guarantee a profit. The recurring purchase simulator shows how the average works.
Spending $10 of bitcoin
To pay someone $10 in bitcoin, Lightning is usually the cheaper route. An on-chain payment's network fee doesn't shrink with the amount, so on busy days it can be a large share of $10.
