[INFO]-Crypto Stamps- Collectable Blockchain postage stamps

[MoparMiningLLC]

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_onchain

I 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.

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.

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.

i added one might add more if it goes down a bit more.

gas prices went down so I added all 16 of my keepers - 1 animal of each color - blue, green, yellow and black.

I got the replacements today, they had them in dual sleeves and wrapped/sealed with postage tape in wax paper - I kind of want to open it to see what I got but kind of dont want to mess with them lol

I can't believe I missed out 2020 edition! Looking at the site now and I only see onchain stamps. Anyone know any place still selling the physical? Link please =) I KNEW it was coming, and then I got so busy and right now I remember it and it's over. Damn me.

outside of eBay or here on the forums, I do not think you can buy the physicals. I may be wrong but I also think you can buy the onchain ones and then request the matching physicals perhaps.

There's also a telegram group for buying and trading here https://t.me/CryptoStampBuyandSell

Edit - Yes, you can indeed buy onchain then redeem for physicals.

Hello guys, I bought some crypto stamps 2.0 and have some doubles like when I collected panini stickers. I also got a yellow lama with 5 only lowercase letters. Can anyone tell me how much that is worth? Anyone told me there are only 19 pieces worldwide of them.

5 digit is not just the catch here - it is a 5 digit all letters then doubled as all lowercase - I have a yellow llama as well with 5 digit lowercase letters.

based on the image below there were 360 total CS2 stamps with 5 digit with only lowercase letters  edited

Hello,

I like the idea of making it rare before they become rare like I want it rare NOW.  The guy who came up with this idea is generous.
