How to buy and stake HEX for Canadians.
My recommendation for standard Cryptocurrency Investment is — Buy HEX and Stake it.
(Canadian Version but this method can be used almost anywhere)
I have been in Crypto for four years and would like to ensure people don't get scammed and hacked. It all starts with security and not putting your assets on exchanges. Cryptocurrency is all about being responsible for your money, and I'm not a financial advisor.
What's Crypto supposed to be?
Satoshi created the #Bitcoin technology to allow peer-to-peer online transactions without a financial entity as a middleman.
It has evolved into a better-designed cryptocurrency known as #HEX—the first blockchain Certificate of Deposit that pays you for holding by staking. Delayed gratification pays the most.

You can stake your HEX from 1 day to 15 years. The more you stake, and the longer you stake, the better APY up to 38% you will receive.
HEX is an immutable contract in the blockchain code. Nobody except you can change that. If you need to end your stake early, you will be penalized.
You won't lose any principal investment if you make it through half of your stake length.
