The English edition is based on the Polish version published in May 2026. The book, titled Digital Philately and Cryptophilately. In the Web3 Era. 2018–2026, is 576 pages long and offers a comprehensive monograph of this rapidly developing market since 2018. The publication has been expanded and updated with new issuer editions through the second quarter of 2026.

Two main parts of the publication

The book consists of two parts. The first describes the evolution of traditional philately toward digital philately — a phenomenon at the intersection of collecting, blockchain technology, and Web3. The author discusses the diversity of digital philatelic forms, drawing on the definitions of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and expanding them to include new digital forms. This part also covers the technical aspects of collecting: Web3 architecture, blockchain as the dominant technology in this field, and the NFT standard as a new paradigm of digital ownership. The author points to the variety of collecting platforms and elements of gamification. The chapter devoted to the economics of collecting describes rarity standards as well as trading and auction platforms.

The second part is a catalogue of national issuers and licensors, together with a collection of more than 234 collections and issue chronicles from 34 countries. The issues are arranged alphabetically by continent and country, while the emissions of individual countries are, in most cases, presented chronologically by date of issue. At the end of each chapter there are summaries of that country’s issues and the most important parameters: print runs and links to most national emissions. The book also includes issue statistics and an extensive list of smart contracts — an addition particularly awaited in the new edition. Editorial corrections identified in the Polish version have also been introduced.

The author’s innovative assessment of how obtainable a given collection is helps readers immediately judge whether a particular set of items can be purchased and completed. The assessment is based on the author’s own experience of building a collection over six years. The collection of the author and publisher covers issuers’ editions from 2018 through to the latest emissions of national posts, affiliated entities, and producers of Cinderella-type solutions.

The publication is richly illustrated, with more than 2,000 colour illustrations, 170 tables, and comprehensive summaries of issues from the beginning of digital philately in 2018 through the second quarter of 2026, including selected emissions and announcements from the third quarter of 2026. An important value of the book is the media and substantive support of national and international patrons: national postal operators, operators of collecting and educational platforms, producers of digital philately and cryptostamp solutions and products, as well as blockchain technology experts.

Each collector’s copy will be signed by the author. Every book will receive an occasional first-day postmark — a separate one for each colour variant. All copies of the English edition feature a special ribbon and an accompanying occasional bookmark

With Cheiron, the Heroes of Mythology series introduces a protagonist who stands apart from its previous figures. Following Perseus and Eos, the exclusive Crypto stamp Gold Edition 2026 is dedicated to a character remembered not for heroic feats, but for wisdom, knowledge, and humanity. In Greek mythology, centaurs are typically portrayed as wild and untamed beings of nature. Cheiron is the famous exception. As a respected teacher, skilled hunter, and master of healing, he educated many of antiquity’s greatest heroes. These qualities are reflected in the design: Cheiron stands in the heart of a forest, emphasizing his close connection to nature. Surrounded by clouds, he guards a genuine 1-gram gold bar (Au 999.9) at the center of the motif. This strictly limited collector’s item is available in an edition of only 230 pieces and will be released on October 15, 2026, at a price of €500 each.

On 8 December 2026, La Poste will launch a new #NFTimbre10 series on www.NFTimbre.com, themed “The Holiday Season” and created in partnership with GOBELINS Paris.

What if the festive season were reinvented by a new generation of creators?

For its #NFTimbre10 series, Philaposte – La Poste has teamed up with GOBELINS Paris to create an original collection dedicated to the season of celebrations. Working in groups spanning different year groups and specialisations, 130 students from all three years of GOBELINS’ DN MADE programme (National Diploma in Arts and Design) devised visuals and animations inspired by these festive moments. Discover their original creations, full of magic and emotion, designed to make the holiday season even more special.

While the festive season traditionally brings to mind turkey with chestnuts, snowflakes and snowmen, the students were asked to challenge clichés and reinvent holiday imagery. Combining drawing, collage, motion graphics, sound, editing and mixed-media techniques, 17 teams worked on visuals for physical stamps, as well as animated extensions intended to become their digital twins (NFTs).

At the end of these creative workshops, each team presented its proposal, allowing Philaposte – La Poste and GOBELINS Paris to compare the different concepts and select the work of four teams. One visual from each of these teams was chosen for the #NFTimbre10 series. Here is how the students describe their work:

#NFTimbre 10.1 – The Dance Floor

“Our choice naturally gravitated towards dance. Bodies begin to move, taking the collective atmosphere to another level. This scene also allowed us to explore the characters’ attitudes, postures and interactions in greater depth, seeking to capture the energy and spontaneity of a party.”

Emilie Jan, Sidonie Guisseau, Côme Rols, Eymeric Mathieu,
Arno Goinard, Jade Roulin, Mael Jordan, Jules Land

#NFTimbre 10.2 – The Reindeer

“We chose to use a printing technique that would create an engraved effect. To achieve this, we made paper stamps, which we cut out and painted by hand. The next step was to rework the colours using our digital tools and apply halftone patterns to the illustrations to add more texture. This graphic treatment directly references the knitted stitches of Christmas jumpers and reinforces the project’s visual identity.”

Saudubray Lénaëlle, Hebert Hermione, Rolina Sabrine, Viotay Nahesy,
Serrano Amandine, Poupeau Clara, Desprez Lucie, Haraigue Selma

#NFTimbre 10.3 – The Winter Snowflake

“Visually, a hybrid snowflake/Christmas-tree motif, shown in various altered states—cracked, burnt and so on—and highlighted by a jarring fluorescent yellow, embodies both the urgency of environmental issues and the diversity of ecological perspectives. This stamp uses the festive season to challenge holiday stereotypes, transforming these few square centimetres into a space for thought-provoking visual debate by bringing the differing perspectives within a family face to face with climate issues.”

Cléo K’Dual, Constantin Sirota, Sacha Grimaud, Jules Molinaro,
Cassien Nouvellon, Lilou Campal, Ida Rodriguez

#NFTimbre 10.4 – The Snowman

“This project followed a specific brief, defined by two formal constraints: using typography as a visual element and structuring the composition around a grid. Two elements were also mandatory: a snowman, or characters building one, and a nutcracker.

We chose a warm colour palette to evoke the warmth and togetherness of Christmas celebrations. The golden tones recall the glow of a hearth, shared family moments and that little touch of magic that makes the evening unique. Our aim was to convey a warm, festive and comforting atmosphere.”

Juliet Roussin, Lily-Mai Amaouche, Lisa Da Costa, Diane Gay,
Melvyn Bonard-Louichet, Axel Lemercier, Antonin Gobourg
