Bpost's third crypto stamp — after Dragon (2024) and Athena (2025) — shows the demigod and hero Heracles together with the horse Areion, matching the 2026 series idea of pairing every mythological figure with a horse. Orders opened on 24 September 2026, the same day as the Austrian (Perseus, Eos), Dutch (Demeter) and Portuguese (Hades) partner stamps.

The digital twins come in five colours, with black as the most common and red as the most exclusive; the colour is revealed only on activation, and the NFT is held on Polygon.

Curator note: released 24 September 2026. Bpost publishes no mintage — the "Still 7,774 copies available" counter on bpost.be on 2026-09-20 was pre-order stock, not the edition size. Bpost names only black and red; yellow, blue and green are modelled from the official image host, which carries exactly these five colours. The contract address comes from the crypto.post.at dApp bundle (code BECS3). Designer not named.
