Use cases
Hex Bonds turn a locked HEX stake into a tradable claim with a fixed maturity. Here is what that unlocks.
If you hold a HEX stake
Delegate it to the Hex Bond manager and mint HB against it, up to a safe ceiling just below the stake's intrinsic value — the manager holds back the stake's final stretch and worst-case penalties so every bond stays fully covered.
- Get liquidity without ending the stake. No emergency-end-stake penalty.
- Mint over time as the stake grows, for a steady income stream.
- Amplify — recycle what you extract into more stake. See Amplified stakes.
If you hold Hex Bonds
Each Hex Bond is a claim on a fixed amount of HEX on a fixed day.
- Buy below redemption value and hold to maturity for a HEX-denominated return.
- Leveraged HEX exposure with no liquidation price to defend.
- Trade the curve — hedge duration, or arbitrage maturities that are mispriced against each other.
What Hex Bond adds
Same primitive, rebuilt incentive layer.
- Farm HB/HEX liquidity for HBR that emits for a century, not 14 months.
- Stake HBR for reflections and treasury yield.
- Vault HBR against a maturity to earn that token's creation tax.
