According to estimates revealed by Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, coffee production in the country expanded from 0 to 250,000 hectares by 2025.

The goal, Maduro indicated, is to continue growing, and he emphasized that currently “more than 60,000 coffee-growing families are organized nationwide in 20 states, which guarantees the consolidation of a solid production network with the capacity to supply both the domestic and international markets.”

Data from the 2024-2025 harvest indicates a yield of 3,027,724 quintals. “Each quintal contains 46 kilos. This year’s harvest has increased by 55 %, and we are predicting 4,701,550 quintals, which is equivalent to more than 216 million kilos,” said Maduro.

Currently, there are 438 coffee brands in the South American country, a great achievement thanks to the efforts of coffee growers and local producers.

According to Maduro, the nation has 210 million kilos to complete the cycle of perfect adaptation, and he defined the scenario as “the equation of producing everything in Venezuela, supplying the entire national market, and increasingly exporting quality Venezuelan products to the world.”

In the era of cryptocurrencies, Germany seeks not to be left behind and launched the first cryptographic postage stamp on October 28 at an event in Berlin.

The presentation ceremony was led by Finance Minister Christian Lindner and Deutsche Post CEO Nikola Hagleitner.

During the launch it was learned that the project involves NFTs (non-fungible tokens) and blockchain technology.

Regarding the entry into circulation of the cryptographic postage stamp, it was indicated that this November 2 “250,000 booklets will go into circulation, each of which will have a stamp worth 1.60 euros and an NFT (non-fungible token), a blockchain code, which is unique and is valid as title to each of the 250,000 cryptographic postage stamps,” as reported by dpa.

Blockchain and NFT technology

According to the German agency, the first hundred crypto stamps along with the NFT are worth 99 euros (about $104). The rest, 9.90 euros. In addition to the stamps with NFTs, there will be 800,000 normal postage stamps without NFTs.

This special stamp is issued by the Ministry of Finance and distributed by the German postal company Deutsche Post. It shows the Brandenburg Gate, generated by artificial intelligence.

It is the beginning of a series called “Historical Buildings”, which can be collected both physically and digitally. As usual, it comes with a Matrix code, which prevents its multiple use and allows it to be tracked. States such as Austria, Switzerland or Liechtenstein already have cryptographic seals.
