#BitcoinPizzaDay2025
Today marks the 15th anniversary of the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin – when Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas on May 22, 2010. Back then, those coins were worth about $41. Today, they’d be worth hundreds of millions of dollars – making it the most expensive pizza order in history.
But beyond the price tag, Bitcoin Pizza Day is about more than just pizza. It’s a reminder of how far we’ve come in the world of decentralized finance and digital currencies. That one transaction proved Bitcoin had real-world value and kickstarted a global financial revolution.
Whether you're a Bitcoin OG, a newcomer to crypto, or just here for the memes and pepperoni, take a moment today to appreciate the innovation, vision, and community that have brought us to this point.
Grab a slice, raise your glass (or wallet), and celebrate how one pizza order changed the world.
