Every year on May 22, the crypto community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza DayĀ a fun but meaningful reminder of the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin: two pizzas for 10,000 BTC.
The Origin of Pizza Day
Back on May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz posted on the BitcoinTalk forum, offering 10,000 BTC to anyone who could order him two pizzas. Eventually, someone accepted the offer and had two Papa John's pizzas delivered to him in exchange for those bitcoin. AtĀ that time, 10,000 BTC was worth around $41 USD. Today, that same amount would be worth over $500 millionĀ making it the most expensive pizza in history!
Why Does It Matter?
- š It proved that Bitcoin could be used as real money
- š§¾ It marked the start of crypto commerce
- š It inspired the creation of wallets, exchanges, and payment systems
