In an exciting revelation, the La Poste Group, in collaboration with Nomadic Labs, has announced the official launch of the NFTimbre platform. This platform, marking a new era for stamp collectors, will witness the unveiling of the first-ever NFT stamp on September 18, 2023. It promises a novel approach to stamp collection and will operate on the Tezos blockchain network.
According to a tweet from Nomadic Labs, the platform’s introduction brings us closer to the sale of the initial NFT stamp from the much-anticipated collection. Notably, only 100,000 copies of this unique digital stamp will be minted on the Tezos blockchain.
La Boulange, an independent baker on Tezos, received an email from the platform, and discovered that it is a collection of NFT stamps on Tezos. However, they also highlighted that the platform currently does not offer a direct wallet connection such as connecting Temple/Kukai etc. Users, for the time being, can use the custodial services provided.
As outlined in the platform’s roadmap, this year’s September marks the sale of the inaugural NFT stamp, designated as #NFTimbre1. This milestone will be followed by regular introductions of other NFT stamps over the subsequent months and years. In addition to these unveilings, a mobile application for the platform is also in the works, slated for a December 2024 release.
La Poste’s debut NFT stamp, intricately designed by the renowned independent French artist Faunesque, has been priced at 8 euros, with the total offering capped at 100,000 units. Faunesque, whose actual name is Phil Constentinesco, conveyed his intrigue at converting the expansive world of mail into the diminutive dimensions of a postage stamp. The exquisite design encapsulates a whirl of items emerging from a mailbox, evoking a myriad of emotions and memories tied to letters and parcels.
Besides the inherent aesthetic appeal, the NFT stamps serve a dual purpose. Collectors can opt to preserve these digital tokens or utilize them for traditional mailing purposes. These digital twins, either as high-definition videos or images, accentuate the finer details of the physical stamp, offering collectors a more profound insight.
La Poste’s commitment to inclusivity and environmental sustainability is manifest in its NFT initiatives. Unlike many NFT artworks that are transacted in cryptocurrencies, La Poste’s NFT stamps are available for purchase in euros. This step ensures broader accessibility, especially catering to those unfamiliar with the intricacies of cryptocurrencies. Moreover, by aligning with Tezos and leveraging its energy-efficient Proof of Stake (PoS) system, La Poste underscores its environmental ethos. With PoS, Tezos ensures a significantly reduced carbon footprint, ensuring the blockchain’s sustainability.
Furthermore, La Poste’s tangible efforts towards environmental stewardship are evident. Their physical stamps are produced at the Boulazac printing plant, which boasts an impressive array of 2,000 solar panels, and the delivery process is optimized to minimize carbon emissions.
The NFTimbre platform by La Poste, supported by Nomadic Labs, represents a perfect amalgamation of tradition and modern technology. As collectors brace themselves for the September release, the world of stamp collection stands on the cusp of a transformative phase.
