Binance Pizza Day: How Two Pizzas Changed the World of Cryptocurrency
Body of Article:
On May 22, the crypto community celebrates one of the most iconic days in history — Bitcoin Pizza Day. It was on this day in 2010 that programmer Laszlo Hanyecz bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. Today, that amounts to over $1 billion, whereas back then, it was just $41.
Fifteen years have passed since then, but this transaction has become a symbol of the real use of Bitcoin and a reminder that even the boldest ideas can become the new norm.
Binance, as the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, traditionally supports this holiday. This year, Binance is launching #BinancePizza — a campaign uniting users around the globe through memes, pizza, and cryptocurrencies.
Why this matters:
This is the day when crypto became something more than just code.
It’s a celebration of a community that is not afraid to take risks and believe in decentralization.
It’s a reason to remember: even pizza can become history if it’s paid for with crypto.
