One of the most iconic moments in the history of cryptocurrencies, "Bitcoin Pizza Day," is celebrated globally every year on May 22. To honor this legendary milestone, Binance TR, one of Turkey's leading cryptocurrency exchanges, is organizing a special community gathering. The event will take place on May 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM at De Marke Agency in Ataşehir, Istanbul.

Looking back, Bitcoin Pizza Day commemorates the day when Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer, paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas on May 22, 2010 — the first known transaction where Bitcoin was used to purchase a physical product. Since then, this date has symbolized the growing adoption of cryptocurrencies worldwide.

To celebrate this occasion, Binance TR is bringing the crypto community together for an exciting event filled with delicious pizza, refreshments, and a prize pool of $1000. Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with industry participants and other cryptocurrency enthusiasts. Entry is limited to the first 200 people, and participants must show their Binance TR user ID (UID) at the entrance.
