TRADE-OFFS
Upside
more T-shares and more HEX from the same money
Cost
each round sells future HEX at a discount, so each adds less
Risk
gains and losses are both bigger; the bonds you sold are paid from your stake
Each round adds more staked HEX from the same starting money. The green branch is what Hex Bond adds: farm your bonds for HBR.

Stake HEX, mint Hex Bonds against it, sell them for HEX, stake that HEX, and repeat. Each round adds more staked HEX — which raises both your returns and your risk. Because you sell the bonds below their payout value each time, every round adds less than the one before.

On Hex Bond

Instead of selling, you can pair your Hex Bonds with HEX and farm them for HBR on top. See Use cases and Farming & emissions.
