At that time, this amount was very modest, around 25 dollars. Eventually, a forum user bit the bullet and ordered a "Nice!" pizza from Papa John's, requesting it to be delivered to Laszlo's home in Florida.

Laszlo sent 10,000 bitcoins via the new command line wallet, and there it was, he got his lunch.

A few years later, the value of those 10,000 bitcoins became tens of millions of dollars. May 22nd is celebrated every year as "Bitcoin Pizza Day," a bold tribute to the first real transaction in the digital world using cryptocurrency.
