Davin stopped by and peeled six of my logs which needed peeling

...and he paid it forward!  

Thank you, Davin.  Not many visitors to the Lab are willing to grab a tool to put someone ahead in time and sweat in the heat we've been experiencing.

I am going to reset my middle roof support tomorrow...I did my trig right on my first triangle and must've gotten distracted on the second.

hmmm...yeah, I am going to do it. Here goes.

Davin Hoyt hooked me up with $74 from the Boot Love thread in the form of ethereum cryptocurrency for the purpose of buying and staking a crypto CD (staked hex tokens ).

I joined that value with some of my own $.

Here's the steps I took:

1-metamask for a wallet on both my laptop and a phone (Google Play Store);
  for your laptop: https://metamask.io
a) I wrote down in order the 12 words to create my public and private key and put those ordered words on paper with my birth certificate.
b) I copied my PUBLIC key  (aka public address), and pasted it, and only it, to a text file so I can give it out to people, organizations, and stores.

a public address looks like this:
0xBfF1415616e0701A7Bf1ce36c68A314151f6D1b7
DO NOT confuse it with with your private key which looks similar.


2-then I opened an account at binance exchange;
https://www.binance.us/en/home
a how to here:
https://dappgrid.com/binance-tutorial/


3-I moved $ from a checking account to my account at binance;
and purchased ethereum.

4- I sent the ethereum from the binance account to my PUBLIC address I copied to a text file. in step 1.

5- I then opened my metamask wallet, noticed that I now have ethereum in it , choose the browser option from the left hand top drop down menu inside my metamask wallet and entered this:

https://ethhex.com/swap

and swapped some of my ethereum for hex tokens.

6- Now for the last step of creating your crypto CD, staking the tokens to a length of time to earn interest over:

if your metamask wallet is still open, from the top left hand drop down menu, choose browser and enter this:

go.hex.com

Stake (eg define how long you will keep each set of hex token).
I staked one set of hex for 3 years, one set for two years, one set for a year.  The max time is 15 years for which you can access the interest regularly.

That's it my people.  $115 will allow you to make three different time stakes, that's the minimum I recommend. $500 would make income that will get your attention.

Do it now because the person running hex is going to perform what in the new york stock exchange would be called a stock split  -your number of staked tokens will double overnight.

Davin has been trying to get permies to pay attention. Buy his pdf for solid explanation but

....just follow the steps I just gave you...soon like within 24hrs.

If you are reading this after August 1st, 2021, it is likely you missed the doubling of your investment....no worries, the income on the returns will still be worth your effort.

Lastly, to spend bitcoin in the world at large, get the breez wallet, the fold app, and bitrefill.   You then can survive in a city on bitcoin for as long as your bitcoin holds out.

Ask Davin if he works for money any more. Had you listened to him when he first posted, neither would you.

So. what are you waiting for???  You in love with your boss or what?

....so I made a deal with Paul last year: I would tear down Hilly Billy Mansion, remove cardboard and other non WL code items; in return, I could store things and sleep in Hill Billy Mansion while I worked on my structure.

I am far enough along with my structure that I need certain materials and all those nice fasteners, so today is the day Hilly Billy Mansion meets its demise.

Thanks Hilly Billy Mansion for keeping me dry and the morning heat stored by your see thru roof.
