About Crypto Stamps

Crypto Stamps, taking philately into the future.

Collecting Crypto Stamps merges the physical and digital worlds of stamp collecting using blockchain technology.

A crypto stamp consists of two parts:

On one side you have the physical postage stamp existing in the material world. The second part is its ‘digital twin’. On Ciphers.me this digital twin can be claimed and added to your collection but also minted. Minting turns the online stamp into an NFT on the blockchain.

Collectors get to enjoy their traditional stamp collecting hobby online, with the opportunity to trade this digital twin stamp and be part of the exciting world of NFTs. We make this process as easy as possible while giving the opportunity to acquire NFTs on a safe and trusted platform.

In other words:

• The physical stamp is accompanied by a digital representation of the stamp, a so-called digital twin NFT with unique characteristics.
• These digital stamps are registered on a blockchain, which ensures the authenticity, ownership and origin.
• Collectors can purchase, sell, or trade these digital stamps on various online platforms that support blockchain-based collectibles.
• The ownership transfer is recorded on the blockchain ledger which is an online digital record book where ownership, origin, and authenticity data is stored at multiple different locations which guarantees it is there to stay.

More information about blockchain technology

Think of a blockchain as a large decentralised library of records of origin, authenticity, and ownership stored in different locations for security reasons. The data on the blockchain is distributed across multiple computers. This decentralisation provides greater security, as well as transparency and immutability of the data. Blockchain is the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as NFTs such as our Crypto stamps and other valuable collectibles.
