Guernsey Post

(Guernsey) In collaboration with PTS Member, Stampfinity, Guernsey Post issued the world’s first cyber-stamp this year.

Stanley Gibbons

(UK) Stanley Gibbons is committed to introducing Philately to a wider audience in the coming years and its collaboration with Veve offered an exceptional opportunity to do just that with collectors ranging from their 20’s to their 90s! Not only are collectors now in possession of the digital and physical collectables, but they are also learning about the history of our wonderful hobby and hopefully hooked! The first three GB postage stamps have now been offered on Veve.

Publication of the Year
La Poste, the only postal operator in the competition, met with great success when issuing these NFTimbres

I wish to nominate La Poste for their annual.

Trade Ambassador of the Year

Benjamin Combe of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) has been instrumental in promoting understanding and acceptance of digital philately through the WADP Academy. The UPU’s involvement is crucial for establishing international standards and best practices for crypto stamps.
The WADP Academy’s educational initiatives are preparing philatelic professionals, postal administrations, and collectors for the digital transformation of the industry. By providing training and guidance, the UPU ensures that innovation proceeds with proper oversight and maintains the integrity that philately demands.

POLAND - 34th Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charit
2026-01-22 08:00 - 2026-02-16 17:00
SPECIAL EDITION – NEW PRINT WITH NFT DIGITAL VERSION
Objective: diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases in the youngest patients
Slogan: “Healthy tummies of our children”
What is a new print? A new print is a collector’s block made using original production materials, featuring a recreated design of the “34th Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity” stamp with the face value crossed out. New prints are regular releases by Poczta Polska, accompanying many selected stamp issues for years. New prints are well-known and valued in the philatelic community. They are considered legitimate collector’s items, and for cryptophilatelists, they can be a novelty
Form, number and technology • a total of 68 unique, numbered copies • 34 new perforated prints + 34 new non-perforated prints • each copy is graphically personalized (no two identical designs) • each copy comes with a digital NFT version, which is an integral part of the collector’s edition
Method of submission to auction • new prints will be auctioned in collectors’ displays • placed in gift packaging • secured with a wax seal, emphasizing the one-off and unique nature of the edition • new prints will be auctioned as individual collectors’ items – perforated and non-perforated copies will be auctioned separately, not as sets.
100% of the proceeds from the auction of new prints benefit the 34th Grand Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. We’ll announce the auction dates at a later date.

LIECHTENSTEIN - 100 Jahre 100 Fr. Goldvreneli
2026-01-28 08:00 - 2026-02-15 17:00
Liechtenstein Crypto stamp in 999/1000 gold – 100th anniversary of the “100 Francs Vrenli 1925”

A new concept of phygital:
Under the brand license “Liechtenstein Post,” several innovative crypto stamps have already been released in Liechtenstein, most recently the stunning ongoing series “Party Animals” designed by Isabella Hutter. In 2025, an issue will follow that Europe has not yet seen—a gold crypto stamp. It is special in many ways: 999/1000 fine gold, a wallet without a QR code with uncovered access data—an absolute no-go in the crypto scene, but possible since the NFT is soulbound, meaning it cannot be transferred out of the wallet. Finally, the stamp features a historical coin motif, the 100 Franc Goldvreneli from 1925, thus connecting themes from numismatics, philately, and crypto technology on the yellow metal from which the famous 1925 coin was made: gold!
https://opensea.io/collection/100jahre100frgoldvreneli

As with the well-known series “Party Animals” (Liechtenstein Post), the NFTs in this issue also feature different colors and rarities:

Rainbows: 10 pieces (1.1%)

Orange: 130 pieces (14.4%)

Violet: 300 pieces (33.3%)

Turquoise: 460 pieces (51.1%)

NEW ZEALAND - 2026 Year of the Horse
2026-02-17 17:00 - 2026-03-17 17:00
Whether it was to chase the gold rush, to set up a market garden, or to share their love of Chinese cuisine, the ancestors of Aotearoa New Zealand’s Chinese population brought with them their skills and their heritage in the hopes of building a better tomorrow. The Lunar New Year is an exciting time for new prospects for many nations including China, and is celebrated widely across Aotearoa New Zealand. The story of Chinese New Year starts with Jade Emperor, who created the Zodiac calendar, a 12-year cycle to help track the passage of time. The Horse was chosen to represent the seventh year in the Zodiac after it placed seventh in the Jade Emperor’s great race. It’s said that the horse was about to come in sixth but was sabotaged by the snake who spooked it by sliding under its hoof and finishing ahead of its opponent.

AUSTRIA - CRYPTO STAMPS ISLAND - Ronny Ratel and Lex Leo
2026-03-19 09:00 - 2026-04-19 17:00
Crypto Stamp Island continues to grow:
The collectible world is expanding!
With the popular Crypto Stamp comic characters, last year’s successful series enters its next round—steadily evolving into a large collectible universe. The combination of Crypto Stamp and postage stamps makes the new edition a highlight for collectors who love both classic philately and modern collectibles and trading cards.
The new Crypto Stamps are available in stamp sets. Each set contains one Crypto Stamp with a face value of €11.35 as well as three randomly selected additional cards. These additional cards are CRYPTO STAMP ISLAND postage stamps with a face value of €2.00 each. The different additional cards are divided into three categories: locations, artifacts, and characters. Each pack therefore offers a new chance for rare combinations and surprises.
Ronny Ratel and Rex Leo kick things off.
These two striking new comic characters will expand the world of Crypto Stamps starting on March 19, 2026. Both designs blend seamlessly into the existing comic universe and offer collectors new visual highlights as well as exciting additions to their personal collections.
The stamp sets are available at a price of €17.35 and have a print run of 6,050 pieces each.
For everyone who wants to store their collection stylishly and neatly, there is an exclusive new release this year: a dedicated Crypto Stamp collector’s album. The exclusive comic design, colorful illustrations, and expressive details make the album a collectible item in its own right. The album contains 10 transparent insert sheets with a total of 20 pages and 180 pockets—perfect for collecting and organizing Crypto Stamps and CRYPTO STAMP ISLAND postage stamps. The collector’s album will also be available starting March 19, 2026, is limited to 1,000 pieces, and costs €29.90.
The stamp sets and the collector’s album are available in the online shop, through the collector service, and at selected sales points. The stamp sets are also available in Philapunkt branches.
A special highlight awaits collectors on the first day of issue, March 19: starting at 9 a.m., an exclusive event will take place at the Philatelie Shop 1030, featuring a stamp presentation and a signing session from 10 to 11 a.m. with Thomas Aigelsreiter and Andreas Paar, the artists behind the Crypto Stamps and the CRYPTO STAMP ISLAND comic. It’s the perfect opportunity to hold the new releases in your hands for the first time, have them signed, and meet other fans from the Crypto Stamp community. Customers can also look forward to an exclusive goodie with any purchase made on-site on the first day.
Important: Subscribers of the XL and XXL subscriptions will receive the Crypto Stamps Ronny Ratel and Rex Leo individually by mail. XXL subscribers will also receive the CRYPTO STAMP ISLAND postage stamps (additional cards) with the release of the final comic character at the end of 2026.

FRANCE - NFTimbre No. 7 – Mont-Saint-Michel
2026-03-24 09:30 - 17:00
The “First Day” launch of sales for this #NFTimbre7 series will take place on 24/03/2026 from 9:30 am, exclusively via the La Poste platform www.NFTimbre.com
Purchases made on this date will be certified “First Day” via the NFT itself.

Each of the four blocks tells an imaginary story about Mont-Saint-Michel. The #NFT animation, blending image and sound, brings each of these stories to life.

#NFStamp7.1 A Galactic Story
It seems that there is a Mont-Saint-Michel on every planet in the galaxy, even the very, very distant ones. Is that true?
Every planet has its own Mont-Saint-Michel. On some, it serves as a beacon in the night, on others, as a refuge for the inhabitants, and sometimes, it becomes a temple for kings…

#NFStamp7.2 A Heroic Story
One day a knight liberated Mont-Saint-Michel
Centuries ago, Mont-Saint-Michel was the territory of a gigantic dragon.
He terrorized the inhabitants, and sometimes he ate them.
But one day, a brave knight decided to challenge the creature…

#NFTimber7.3 A robotics story
Is Mont-Saint-Michel a machine?
It might seem natural, but Mont-Saint-Michel was designed as an immense machine, a colossal robot, whose mission is to help humans in their daily lives. This prodigious mechanism operates continuously; it never stops, never breaks down…

#NFTimber7.4 A mystical story
Have you ever actually seen Mont-Saint-Michel?
Those who haven’t seen it might indeed wonder if it’s just a legend, a story known to all but never verified. What if, originally, it was just a simple rock in the middle of the ocean, transformed over time by stories?
