Hex (HEX) Remains Trending Upwards

Richard Heart’s baby, Hex, has been the subject of much debate in the crypto world. Despite this, it continues to climb, with the highest level of whale transactions occurring yesterday, excluding February 9, and a mid-sized correction on that day.

It won’t be surprising if history repeats itself for a few more days.
