TEZ or TEZOS is a pos coin that right now over the last year has seen gains unprecedented since the inception of bitcoin itself. This is an update to Tezos should you even bother and so far my answer is a solid YES. My free Crypto "well almost freee" I had to watch some video's on coinbase then answer 1 question each after the informative video that made me around $40 in free crypro, I put it all into tez and in a month its more than doubled to about 93$ right now plus Im making staking rewards.
The staking is about 5.45% right now on an annual yield which can vary....my bank only pays .25% lmao even usds pays more " another coin on coinbase that stakes" but I'll get into that coin in other articles. Tezos is a chain that will NOT have forks so no tezos fork 2 3 ect but can have other projects built of it I am assuming that its kinda like tokens but on the tezos chain and so tied directly to TEZ price from what I've learned.
If the Tezos currency keeps this growth up it may exceed Bitcoin in intrinsic value and replace it as the #1 currency, but thats speculation based on current growth rates, do not take that as a "professional forecast". It has taken me years to be able to see trends in market mood and movements to speculate to make some coin, and im not rich yet by any means (I've lost more over the years learning than I've gained yet) however I consistently am making money with pos coins everyday now.
POS vs POW
I do both. POW cost me but I get paid for my power in coin per a set hashrate and with such volatility in the markets its sometimes very unprofitable to do pow. Now pos costs me nothing but just letting my coins sit (which they are probably going to do anyway) and I get paid just for letting it sit, the more I have the better the reward, but no power costs so its basically GRAVY.
Remember however coins and tokens are volatile and you may lose your whole investment, so only put in what you can lose.
HAVE FUN...;)
