	In traditional proof of work cryptocurrencies, halving events often lead to significant challenges for miners, as the cost of production effectively doubles overnight, potentially driving many out of business.		In traditional proof of work cryptocurrencies, halving events often lead to significant challenges for miners, as the cost of production effectively doubles overnight, potentially driving many out of business.
	With Seasonal Tokens, however, the dynamics are quite different. When the mining supply of the least expensive token halves and it becomes less profitable to mine, miners quickly redirect their resources to the other three tokens. This sudden influx of mining activity reduces the profitability of these tokens as well, due to increased competition.		With Seasonal Tokens, however, the dynamics are quite different.

	Traders, anticipating these shifts, often invest in the token that is currently the least expensive but expected to rise in price. This strategy is based on the knowledge that a reduction in its supply—due to the halving—combined with a spike in demand will likely drive its price up.

	As a result, the token’s price increases, often surpassing the other three. This strategic investment not only yields profits due to predictable price oscillations but also supports the overall mining economy by redistributing resources and effort across the different tokens.

	Bitcoin's technological breakthrough was its ability to facilitate cryptocurrency transactions without the need for trusted third parties or a central authority. Building on this innovation, Ethereum introduced the concept of a Virtual Machine, enabling a variety of applications to operate in a trustless manner. This development paved the way for a new sector within financial services known as decentralized finance, or DeFi.

	It's crucial to recognize that the price oscillations observed are not explicitly programmed into the smart contracts. In fact, the four smart contracts operate independently as ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum network, each with a maximum supply of 37 million. These tokens are mined through proof of work, and their mining supply is scheduled to halve every three years.

	The price dynamics of Seasonal Tokens are governed solely by supply and demand. Although the token supply is fixed over time, this alone does not explain the observed price oscillations.
