Binance is once again celebrating a landmark moment in crypto history — Bitcoin Pizza Day! On May 22, 2010, the first recorded transaction of BTC for a real-world item took place: two pizzas were bought for 10,000 BTC. This iconic event marked the beginning of Bitcoin’s journey as a functional currency and gave the crypto world its own historical milestone.
Today, it’s more than just a fun anecdote — it’s a powerful reminder of how far the crypto industry has come in just 14 years. What started as an experiment among enthusiasts has evolved into a global financial movement, challenging traditional systems and unlocking new forms of economic empowerment. As one of the world’s leading crypto platforms, Binance proudly joins the celebration each year to reflect on the progress made.
Bitcoin Pizza Day is not just about looking back — it’s also about envisioning what’s next. Will crypto become a daily tool for millions around the world? Considering how the space has grown from two pizzas to trillions in market capitalization, the answer seems clear: crypto is here to stay — and its future looks even more exciting.
