well i just checked and it is now almost $17 to add one stamp.... was $8 a few hours ago... guess I should not have waited
edit - just checked this morning and gas prices are crazy... $36 and change to xfer - I thought the point of crypto was to be better than fiat banks? Shit, I have wired 10k to China for less money using a bank.
price is lower again. perhaps you give it a try. |

you already created a collection, so try to transfer or buy at least one crypto stamp into the collection for qualifying for the onchain raffle. The chance to win a golden unicorn is about 15% each week. 3 weeks left. ;-)
The difference between onchain crypto stamp (OCS) and the normal physical CS is, that for the onchain you will have the NFT first and can request any time the physical counterpart (unfortunately you need to pay gas for every steps). Whereas the physical CS, you will have the physical stamp first but the NFT is not minted yet.
it does not matter how many are in the collection? what is the criteria to be selected? your post above says toe collect "achievements" to hunt for the Unicorn - I have 16 that I would redeem (the other 12 I will either sell or give away) I have given away a few already. I wonder if there is any value to the one stamp with 'satoshi' in the pass phrase? lol would have been better if the stamps were based on BTC not ETH lol What I have read is, that at the beginning the Austrian Post has planned to give priority and reward those collections with many achievements. But because of the high gas situation they changed it. It's enough if you have a collection and with at least one CS in it. Does not matter how many CS you have in your collection. So far about 31 collections with only one CS inside the collection won a CSGU. ahh ok - I will do a few then. I have till weds/thurs so I might wait to see if gas prices go down a little - I had added enough to do about $10 each for gas so about $160 total if I do them all holy hell.... it went up more. was near $8 each earlier now it is almost $13 to do one. what a fucking rip off... Better before Wednesday because on Thursday they will have already selected the winners. Austrian Post won't get any money from the high gas fees. All ETH will go to the miners. |

I'm not sure why you just didn't buy an OCS stamp or two here: https://crypto.post.at/onchainshop/more info: https://crypto.post.at/how-it-works/#what_is_onchainI think taciturn is saying you need an OCS stamp in your collection. Not sure about imported physicals. I do it in reverse. Buy onchain, then have the physicals sent to me via metamask. I don't recall it being super expensive, but maybe it was. The ETH network is really shitty lately, so many shit-tokens/contracts lol. to be honest - I have zero experience with ethereum or the onchain store and did not understand the difference when purchasing - someone had posted the link to where I could pre-purchase them and I did - it just so happened it was physicals - I looked at buying the on chain ones now - and its nearly the same price as xferring the physicals nearly $12 euros each tell me this if I buy on-chain ones, do they automatically send me the physical ones? do I have to request them? And is there a cost associated to getting the physical ones after buying on-chain ones? edit - after reading the response right before mine - I think I will just hold onto the physicals - periodically checking gas prices and eventually redeem them when its reasonable. Sadly, this will remove any chance of winning one of the golden unicorns - though I assume that chance is slim anyways. And I wasted $15 to create the empty collection lol you already created a collection, so try to transfer or buy at least one crypto stamp into the collection for qualifying for the onchain raffle. The chance to win a golden unicorn is about 15% each week. 3 weeks left. ;-) The difference between onchain crypto stamp (OCS) and the normal physical CS is, that for the onchain you will have the NFT first and can request any time the physical counterpart (unfortunately you need to pay gas for every steps). Whereas the physical CS, you will have the physical stamp first but the NFT is not minted yet. Minting the NFT into a collection or wallet of course would cost gas again. In the beginning it was free using the physical CS to create the first collection and mint the first CS. But the budget has been exhausted by few egoistic people because they created many free collections and NFTs for the onchain raffle. |

The ETH network is really shitty lately, so many shit-tokens/contracts lol. Not necessary to be a OCS to participate in the Onchain raffle, normal physical also works. But I agree, with all the CS2 hassles and security problems, the OCS2.0 are the safest and best anyway. It does not matter if the physical counterpart has also the same security issue, because it does not have private phrases (seed), instead it has a standard German sentence for all OCS: "sammle achievements und begib dich auf die jagd nach dem goldenen einhorn" (translation: collect achievements and go hunt for the golden unicorn). |

I wonder how many people missed the unicorns in their collections and lost out.... And what happened to them if not redeemed? So many questions  I just created a collection cost $12 - tried to add the first stamp and its nearly $9 to add each one. This will be super expensive.... that said, if I go to https://crypto.post.at/wallet/<enter wallet address for stamp> and click the button the side (no idea what it says) it pops up a message: The golden unicorn was not found here I am not sure but I wonder if this is a way to check to see if the physicals have a unicorn assigned? without having to pay the fees to add to a collection? I have almost 30 stamps - it would cost me over 200 USD to add them all and that is kind of crazy - or am I wrong and that should be expected? ... You misunderstood how the crypto stamp golden unicorn (CSGU) onchain raffle works. The criteria are: you need a digital collection and at least one crypto stamp in it. That's so far the minimum. Every Thursday after midnight (CET), sometimes later, the system will randomly select collections for a CSGU. You need to connect your wallet with the Austrian crypto stamp site and check your collection. If you win, you can't miss the huge full page win message. You need to claim it before the next Wednesday by filling out the address data and signing the transaction (free). Transaction is set with 100 gwei, so if ETH network has higher gas price it can take few days for the smart contract to fulfill the transaction. As long at least pending transaction or better successful transaction, everything is fine. If you see the won CSGU in your collection, then you will get the physical CSGU counterpart. This raffle will end on the 5th of October 2020. As you already know total mintage of the CSGU is 999 (500 physical sale Onlineshop, 299 Onchain Raffle, 200 physical Raffle). So far 154 of 299 Onchain Raffle CSGU have been distributed and about 25-30 of 200 of physical Raffle CSGU have been sent to winners. Another 100 of physical Raffle CSGU reserved for the scavenger hunt game (until 21st of September 2020). Differences between Onchain Raffle (ID 0-298, marked outside with 390000-390298, rectangle packaging), Onlineshop (Physical Sale ID 499-998, square packaging) and physical Raffle CSGU (ID 299-498, marked outside with 390299-390498, rectangle packaging): Onlineshop and physical Raffle CSGU still have the NFT in their original physical counterpart wallet, whereas for the Onchain Raffle CSGU the wallet is empty because the NFT is minted directly into your collection after the win claim. Really great from the Austrian Post to make 499 CSGU worth minimum 249,500 Euro (gold value not included) as gifts to CS collectors/enthusiasts. ok I thought I might have did it wrong - I just dont see the logic in paying so much just to add it to a collection, nearly doubles the cost of each stamp. but if there is a chance to win the golden one.... maybe worth it. one question - if you add it to your collection - is there a way to xfer the onchain one if you, for example, sell the physical? edit - well, hell I go ahead and xfer enough eth to wallet and go to start xferring the stamps - the cost to transfer went up nearly 20%.... Yeah, unfortunately it depends much on the ETH gas situation. At the moment all NFTs suffer from high gas costs. Of course you can sell physical stamp and NFT separately. For OCS (onchain CS) you can request physical counterpart online (costs gas again), but if you sell/transfer the OCS you can't request it anymore. |

50,000 euro cents = 500 Euro. This is a valid stamp, accepted by the Austrian post office. Theoretically, you can use this stamp to pay for up to €500 shipping fees (ie. send a parcel through the Austrian post office)  Plus 70 bucks for the gold, so they’re losing money on this? That’s why I was questioning it I guess, they rely on the fact that this is a collectible item, and almost no one is going to (actually) use it to dispatch items with. So, they are selling 500 Euro stamps, that very few will "redeem" the service value of it. But still, those 500 Euro are not gone from the books. They have to keep them in accounting records and can't use them for something else. But I also agree, that they make profits from selling products/services, where most people won't use them, in this case the crypto stamps. It's like people buying vouchers from a company and never use them.  |

I really like the Croatian Crypto Stamps. The interactive mosaic web shop was great.
Is it possible to provide metadata for Opensea / Trust Wallet, like pic, tier, sale source,...? At the moment we see only blank IDs without pics and other metadata.
That would be great, otherwise the NFTs would be hard to be recognized without good visualization and other metadata.
Also why is the smart contract not verified yet?
Thank you  We provided metadata for Opensea. And we verified the smart contract.  Thank you! It would be great if you can provide later more metadata to Opensea. On Opensea the items can have "properties" like in your case e.g. "tier" and "sale source" (crypto / physical). If there are thousands of Postereum items on Opensea it would be much easier to filter them later by the properties. |

Also ich muss schon sagen, die kroatische Post hat hier beim Verkauf sehr vieles richtig gemacht, da könnte unsere österreichische Post echt noch sehr viel dazulernen: - Bestellung klappte reibungslos, keinerlei Ausfälle oder ähnliches
- Die Bezahlung ist mit verschiedensten Crypto-Währungen möglich
- Die Marken scheinen keine Security-Design-Schwächen aufzuweisen (ist aber noch etwas früh um das endgültig beurteilen zu können)
Bzgl. der Ausfälle war zwar sicher auch der Ansturm nicht so enorm wie bei der CS1 und CS2, nachdem aber auch bei der CS1 so ziemlich alles zusammengebrochen ist hätte man hier beim Verkauf der CS2 doch auch auf die Erfahrungswerte aus dem ersten Sale setzen und dementsprechend vorsorgen können. Ich habe eine andere Erfahrung gemacht. Ich hatte keine Probleme mit dem eshop, wo man die normalen physischen CS kaufen konnte, aber Paypal ging nicht. Die Nachfrage scheint nicht so groß zu sein, da nicht einmal 10% der Marken verkauft wurden in den ersten Tagen. Ganz anders war es mit dem OCS. Die ersten 40min ging gar nichts. OCS Shop brach mehrmals zusammen, Bezahlungen mit Cryptos gingen manchmal nicht durch, NFTs wurden nicht zeitnah geminted und dann wurde meine Mailbox mit über 1000 Emailrechnungen von der Kroatischen Post zugespamt. Nachdem alles down war und die Probleme behoben wurden, ging alles super reibungslos. Ja, die Österreichische Post halt. Innovativ und zeitgleich ein alter Hase mit alten Technologien und teils chaotischen Abläufen. Aber ich freue mich über die Ö Crypto Stamps. |

Croatian stamps (Update):
... The disadvantage is that you can buy 1 stamp per order (and hence, if you are planning to get more, you have to pay for shipping fees per order)...
It can be annoying to pay several times for shipping, but compare to the Austrian OCS1.0 it's fairer and everybody has a chance to get one OCS, instead of few people buying all the OCS at once. |

Thank you, when I enter password in Metamask, Onchain store says: "Destination is not specified. Please, connect your wallet with the Metamask" But Metamask is connected... Regards arenite  perhaps try with another browser, e.g. Chrome or Firefox or Brave. Also there is mobile app (Android / iOS) for Metamask. |

Hi,
I can't redeem a presale crypto stamp 2.0 I've bought.
I don't want add it to my collection but only to my wallet.
Any suggestion ?
Thank you
arenite
Do you mean the presale token? If yes, you can go to https://crypto.post.at/onchainshop/ with connected wallet, where the presale tokens are. Then you should see a checkbox for redeeming presale stamps. on the bottom you can choose the destination (wallet or collection). The "Use Safe Gas Estimation" can be really high, but normally it should be much less. |

mir sind die Teilnahmebedingungen unklar. Nr 7 bis 9 sprechen von einem komplett anderen Gewinnspiel ...
... Wenn es mal bei 5k Teilnehmern bleibt... Dennoch dürfte aber eine Vielzahl von Teilnehmern disqualifiziert werden, da auch diverse Personen aus Deutschland und der Schweiz mitmachen dürften. Vielleicht sind die Chancen dann letztlich besser als man denkt. Viel Glück! Beim OCS Raffle, Schitzeljagd und Newsletter wird niemand ausgeschlossen, egal wo Wohnsitz ist. Für Facebook Gewinnspiel ich glaube nicht, dass man EU-Bürger benachteiligen kann. |
|
|
|
Viel Glück euch allen. Bei der aktuellen Anzahl an Kommentaren liegt die Chance bei etwa 1/300 auf den Gewinn eines Goldenen Einhorns! jetzt schon 3,5 Tsd. Kommentare.  Die Chance ist sehr gering da zu gewinnen. |

ich sehe die Liste von ihm immer noch im Haupt-Crypto-Stamp-Channel, 25. August, 10:10, "Gewinnspiel GPS Codes CSGU" mit "hier die aktuelle Liste" und genau drunter hat um 10:12 Uhr ein User namens "lakai01" eine Nachricht geschrieben Jo, da gings darum, dass die zuvor gepostete Liste falsche Links enthält, weil jemand einfach die PLZs der Städte statt der Poststellen angenommen hat Ich seh sonst im Telegram keine andere Liste? In "meiner" sind die Links auf alle Fälle angepasst, man braucht nur draufklicken und seine Daten eingeben Vielen Dank für deine Mühe. Werde ein paar Codes verwenden, unwahrscheinlich alle 50. |
