In the crypto coins world and market, it takes very stable hands to hold onto coins during their periodic fluctuations and it takes immense trust in the underlying technology to understand why and how fluctuations occur.

The common opinion amongst crypto newbies is that buying and investing in crypto is similar to the stock exchange, where you buy a certain stock when its price is low and sell it as and when it rises and calling it a day after your initial investment has doubled. This, though it works in most stock exchange transactions, is hardly the case in crypto. There are many smarter and more efficient ways of profiting from crypto investments and one of them is investing in dividend-paying cryptocurrencies.

NEO

NEO is a non-profit community-based blockchain project that utilizes blockchain technology and digital identity to digitize assets, to automate the management of digital assets using smart contracts, and to realize a “smart economy” with a distributed network.

Alongside the coin “NEO” there is another one called “GAS,” which can be staked in an NEO wallet for a nice return.

To receive the GAS you must hold your NEO in a wallet and not on an exchange (except Binance and Kucoin that let you stake them), but only a few wallets let you claim the GAS.

Kucoin Shares

KuCoin is a blockchain asset exchange that came into being in the middle of 2017. Though it has only been around for a couple of months, it now is one of the most used exchanges and is world-class. The exchange sells tokens to its users, using which they get returns.



KuCoin pays almost 90% of its daily exchange fees to its token holders, making it a very reliable and viable option for investment because an exchange will never run out of business. The exchange was and continues to be witness to a very massive public appraisal because of its business model and the importance its founders have given to its marketing.
