The Austrian Post has released a line of crypto collectible stamps, according to a press release on June 11.
According to the press release, the so-dubbed "Crypto stamp" is the first stamp in the world to be authenticated via blockchain technology.
The postal service has reportedly issued 150,000 copies sold at 6.90 apiece.
As pictured below, the left part, which is stylized with a unicorn associated with Ethereum, functions as a standard stamp that can be used to send mail.
On the other hand, contains the credentials used to authenticate the crypto collectible via blockchain.
The "1-1-1" car, the first and only to be issued, was auctioned off in advance for the release of blockchain racing game F1 Delta Time.
"The game will center around the collection and trading of unique Cars, Drivers and Components - all of which will exist as non-fungible tokens based on the ERC-721 token standard. Tokens are produced in limited quantities as determined by their level of rarity, with the rarest tokens possessing the most impressive racing attributes."
