The 4,357-metre high Dent Blanche is a prominent free-standing pyramid located at the end of the Matter Valley, ten kilometres west of Zermatt. With its distinctive shape, it makes a very good neighbour for the Matterhorn. Four airy, long ridges stretch out in all four main points of the compass. The first time the summit was climbed was via the southern ridge – the Wandfluegrat – on 18 July 1862. It was only in 1966 that the northern ridge was climbed for the first time, a feat that is still considered one of the most dangerous undertakings in Valais. The Dent Blanche is, in general, one of the toughest 4,000-metre climbs in the Alps. Incidentally, the language divide between French-speaking and German-speaking Switzerland runs precisely along the summit of the Dent Blanche.
With the Swiss Crypto Stamp, Swiss Post is bridging the gap between the physical and digital worlds in philately, too. While it is a physical stamp worth 8.90 francs, every crypto stamp also has a related digital image. This digital image shows one of 13 possible designs and can be collected, exchanged and traded online. The Swiss Crypto Stamp has a run of 175,000. Some are more common, while others are much rarer and more coveted.
