Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated annually on May 22 to commemorate the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin. On this day in 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas from Papa Johnโs, marking a historic moment in cryptocurrency history. At the time, 10,000 BTC was valued at approximately $41. As of May 2025, that same amount of Bitcoin would be worth over $1 billion, making those two pizzas the most expensive ever purchased.
Since then, Bitcoin Pizza Day has become a global celebration within the cryptocurrency community. Events are held worldwide, including pizza parties, giveaways, and discussions about the evolution of Bitcoin and its impact on the financial landscape.
If you're in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and interested in joining the festivities, it's worth checking local crypto communities or social media platforms for any Bitcoin Pizza Day events or meetups. While specific events in Dhaka may not be widely advertised, global exchanges and platforms like Binance and Bitget often host virtual celebrations that can be accessed online$BTC #BinancePizzaDay๐
