Bitcoin Pizza Day
Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated every year on May 22 to commemorate the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin. On this day in 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 Bitcoins for two large pizzas, marking the first time Bitcoin was used to purchase a physical item. At the time, those Bitcoins were worth about $41. Today, they would be worth millions of dollars, making it the most expensive pizza purchase in history.
This day is significant in the cryptocurrency world as it marks the beginning of Bitcoinâs journey as a usable currency rather than just a theoretical concept. Every year, crypto enthusiasts around the world celebrate this milestone by sharing pizza and reflecting on how far Bitcoin has come.
Bitcoin Pizza Day reminds us of innovation, vision, and how even the smallest transactions can shape the future of finance.$BTC
