Every year on May 22, the crypto community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day, a lighthearted yet iconic reminder of how far crypto has come. The day commemorates the first-ever real-world transaction using Bitcoin: when Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas in 2010—an amount now worth millions.
To honor this milestone, Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, started the #BinancePizza campaign. It’s more than just a tribute—it’s a global initiative to:
Celebrate crypto adoption, showing how digital assets have moved from novelty to mainstream.
Engage the community with giveaways, local pizza events, and NFT drops.
Support local pizzerias and promote crypto payments for real-world goods.
#BinancePizza is a symbol of crypto’s humble beginnings and a vision of a decentralized future where anyone can buy a slice of pizza—or anything—with digital currency.
Fun Fact: If you bought 2 pizzas for 10,000 BTC in 2025, you'd be spending over $600 million. Toppings better be legendary.
Stay tuned each May for Binance Pizza events, and remember: crypto history can be tasty.
