After you click the first button a new DOM is loaded, so click on the second (and third …) will end with StaleElementReferenceException. You need to get all the href values first and then try them one by one. Just tried on web bbc.com with this code:

package navi;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.AfterClass;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.BeforeClass;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxOptions;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.internal.ProfilesIni;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class Himanshu {
    public static WebDriver driver;  
    @BeforeClass
    public static void setUpClass() {
        FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
        ProfilesIni allProfiles = new ProfilesIni();         
        FirefoxProfile selenium_profile = allProfiles.getProfile("selenium_profile");
        options.setProfile(selenium_profile);
        options.setBinary("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe");
        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\pburgr\\Desktop\\geckodriver-v0.20.0-win64\\geckodriver.exe");
        driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
        driver.manage().window().maximize();
        }   
    @Before public void setUp() {} @After public void tearDown() {}
    @AfterClass public static void tearDownClass() {driver.quit();}
    @Test
    public void lots_of_buttons() throws InterruptedException {
        driver.get("http://www.bbc.com/");
        // wait to page is fully loaded
        wait_sec(driver, 5).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"orb-header\"]/div[1]/div[1]/a/img")));

        // get all the desired webelements
        List<WebElement> header_links = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//a[contains(@href,'x')]"));

        // create new arraylist
        ArrayList<String> hrefs = new ArrayList<String>();  

        // collect all the href values
        for (WebElement link: header_links) {
            hrefs.add(link.getAttribute("href"));
        }

        // visit all the URLs
        for (String url: hrefs) {
            driver.get(url);
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            // do some stuff here
        }
    }

    // modified wait method
    public WebDriverWait wait_sec(WebDriver driver, int sec) {
        return new WebDriverWait(driver, sec);
    }
}

solved I have 100+ button in the page and I have to click on each button and to verify the link and page which opens after clicking
