We are here now!

PHILATELY On-CHAIN with @LennyCSA
A representative from the Austrian Post.
From physical stamps to NFTs, phygital collecting, and digital ownership, Austrian Post has become one of the most unexpected pioneers in the Web3 space.
A conversation about culture, collecting, community building, and why they continue to push the boundaries of what a postal service can be.
This Wednesday the 10th at 5pm CET / 11am EST.
We're about to drop our second collaboration with Austrian Post and Crypto Stamp Art — just one week to go!
And yes... a little hidden surprise can finally be revealed 👀
If you’ve completed the full Sisi & Franz collection, we’ve got a quiet gesture of thanks coming your way.
Everyone who already owns the full Imperial set and picks up the entire Creative Minds collection during this pre-sale week (until June 3rd) will receive something special:
A limited-edition A1 poster (594 × 841 mm), where Mozart and Hedy become time travellers. Each one will be randomly assigned — a small roll of the dice.
After the launch on June 4th, your complete set and the poster will be shipped together — a gift for those who see collecting not just as keeping, but as continuing a story.
To join the pre-sale, just email sammler-service[at]post [dot]at with the subject: Full Set Creative Minds + Poster.
P.S. The poster is limited — after June 4th, we can't guarantee there’ll be any left.
We return with a whisper from history and a spark of invention! Our second journey with the Austrian Post is ready to unfold - this time, in honour of two kindred spirits: Mozart and Hedy Lamarr.
On June 4th, at @NFCsummit in Lisbon, we reveal the next chapter. Will you be there?
You’re invited ! Discover digital and physical stamps at @NFCsummit ☀️
With Swiss Post 🇨🇭, Adphile 🇫🇷, Philaposte 🇫🇷, and @cryptostamp_new 🇦🇹, we’re opening the national crypto stamp exhibition in Lisbon. 🇵🇹
But first, WTF are Crypto stamps? 👇
[1/3]
Crypto stamp Niobium set ‘Digitalisation’ features a 25 Euro Silver Niobium Coin from Münze Österreich AG, is limited to just 5.000 pieces. This unique physical stamp contains real silver and is accompanied by a digital twin (NFT) on the blockchain. https://t.co/LdoxC4SnST
Why collect a piece of history?
- Because they are stamps of Sisi and Franz, timeless pop icons.
- Because they are Hackatao.
- Because they are physical and digital.
- Because they are created in collab with one of the few institutions that understood the value of blockchain early on.
- Because there are still few available. 👇
Here’s the reveal of our OG collaboration: The Austrian Post.
Yes, like us, they started in 2018, reinventing the stamp by merging it with NFTs.
Among the first historical institutions to understand the potential of blockchain, they’ve used it intelligently, focusing on education and making Web3 accessible to a traditional audience. And here we both are, still standing - let’s not forget the importance of foresight.
When they approached us for a collaboration, we were inspired by the idea of engaging with such a deeply rooted institution and becoming part of the history of a form of collecting - philately - that runs parallel to the world of crypto art.
This project has given us the opportunity to contribute to a collection that celebrates a rich and fascinating history, transforming the legacy of Sisi and Franz Joseph I. into an even more vibrant and contemporary expression.
