Binance Pizza Day: A Celebration of Crypto's First Purchase
Binance Pizza Day is celebrated every year on May 22nd to honor the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin. On this day in 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas, marking the beginning of cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange. Though the value of Bitcoin was low back then, that single act became a historic milestone.
Binance, a global cryptocurrency exchange, celebrates this day by promoting awareness and organizing events, giveaways, and learning opportunities. It’s a reminder of how far the crypto world has come—from buying pizza to transforming global finance.
Binance Pizza Day is more than just fun—it’s a tribute to innovation, vision, and the early believers who saw potential in digital currency. Each year, it unites the crypto community in celebration and reflection. #btcpizza #BinancePizzaDay #BinancePizzaVN
