HEX in my opinion does not have too good potential for the future, after the bad news that happened in the past I personally still doubt HEX, what's more HEX is still in the order of 202, it's better for the long term to still choose the top 10
Actually with so many cryptocurrencies at this time it is very helpful for everyone if they know how to choose one that suits a certain duration because for the long term I think it is very clear as you said, but for tokens like HEX for example, I think it is only suitable to choose as a short term investment or day trading to find a suitable profit only. Because the potential is still very small to develop for the better unless there is a special update from the team for HEX.
