Thailand Post gets into NFTs, takes bookings for ASEAN's first

Thailand Post Co., Ltd., is making a new page of history in the world of collectibles, by taking reservations for "crypto-stamps". These combine the classic appeal of postage stamps with popular digital assets such as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), for the first time in ASEAN. The limited issue of only 50,000 uniquely designed crypto-stamp items is to celebrate Thailand Post's 140th anniversary. Reservations open on 1 August 2022 at www.Thailandpostmart.com . More details are available on 02 573 5463, 02 573 5480, Facebook Thailandpostmart, or LINE, both on @ThailandPostMart.com and @stampinlove.

Dr. Dhanant Subhadrabandhu, CEO of Thailand Post Co., Ltd., said that on the occasion of Thailand Post's 140th anniversary, which also marks the appearance of the first Thai stamp, Thailand Post has created a special issue of stamps which are a new experience in the world of philately, "crypto-stamps", to be produced in a limited print run of only 50,000 items. It is uniquely possible to use the code printed on the stamps to register for ownership of a special collection of NFTs made by the community of Thailand's leading NFT artists. The NFT designs combine distinctive characters for images on the stamps, with elements symbolic of postal activity such as red color, line art, post boxes and logos to communicate the cooperation between Thailand Post and the NFT community. This has been issued as 50,000 items of NFT Stamps which are each individually different and unique, marking the first launch of regular stamps alongside virtual stamps stored in the block chain, while the denominated purchase value is the same as the traditional stamps. It is a new page of history for Thailand Post to go beyond physical stamps into the digital world.

The "crypto-stamp" set will be printed as self-adhesive stickers with a scratch code to register receipt of the associated NFT, while it is still possible to use the stamp for postage in the Thailand Post system with a denomination of 140 baht. NFT stamps have also been issued in countries such as Austria, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Netherlands.

Any person wishing to reserve this set of stamps can do so from 1 August 2022 onward, only from the Thailandpostmart online platform and not from any post office. The item is ordered for 140 baht from an issue of only 50,000 unique items. The stamps will be delivered to their owner's address from 14 August onwards. More details are available from the Customer Management and Postal Product Service Development Department on 02 573 5463, 02 573 5480, Facebook Thailandpostmart, or LINE @ThailandPostMart.com and LINE @stampinlove.
