Almost nothing was built at the beginning.

Ethereum went live on July 30, 2015: command-line, developers only, almost nobody deploying. EPOCH honours the handful of tokens that survived that window.

Before The DAO. Before the ICO boom, before NFTs, before stablecoins and DEXs. Before ERC-20 itself existed.

02 · The campaign

Thawing & the four seasons

One week of Thawing, then four week-long seasons: out of the ice, growing, and back to the cold. Each stays sealed until its week opens, and after Winter the campaign is done.

ThawingWeek 0 · opens soon

The origin story. Tokens given away by hand, and holders can lock them to be doubled on the first day of Summer. No market yet: the ground is still frozen.

SpringWeek 1 · genesis

First growth: the market wakes up and the lock window closes. Sealed until the season opens.

SummerWeek 2 · the games

Peak heat, and the busiest stretch of the campaign. Details revealed when the season opens.

AutumnWeek 3 · spending season

The harvest: the season EPOCH gets spent on something. Details revealed when the season opens.

WinterWeek 4 · giveaways

A return to the ice, and the finale. Details revealed when the season opens.

03 · Straight up

It's for fun, and it's for five weeks

What it is

A five-week campaign token: one week of Thawing, then four seasons.
A tribute to #ETH2015, the earliest assets on Ethereum (bitcoin on Ethereum, MistCoin, ayeAyeCoin), and a way to point people at them.
Games, bounties and giveaways you join because they're fun.
Fixed supply, minted once, nothing reserved for the team.

What it isn't

Not an investment, and not financial advice. Never buy more than you'd happily spend on a game.
Not a claim on BTCE, MistCoin, ayeAyeCoin, or anything else. There is no swap and no redemption.
Not a promise of price, returns, or airdrops from anyone.
Not a long-term product. After Winter the seasons are done; what's left is the lore.
