On May 22, 2010, Bitcoin Pizza Day marked a historic moment when Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two Papa John’s pizzas, the first real-world Bitcoin transaction. Valued at about $41 then, those Bitcoins would be worth millions today, highlighting Bitcoin’s incredible value growth. Celebrated annually, this day symbolizes the early adoption of cryptocurrency and its potential to reshape finance. Hanyecz’s trade, made on the Bitcoin Talk forum, showed faith in a nascent technology. Today, it’s a lighthearted reminder of Bitcoin’s journey from obscurity to mainstream. Communities worldwide commemorate it with pizza parties, discussions, and reflections on crypto’s evolution. Here’s to pizza and the decentralized dream!
