The Origin of Bitcoin Pizza Day

On May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by completing the first known Bitcoin transaction for a tangible good. He posted on a Bitcoin forum, offering 10,000 BTC to anyone who would deliver two pizzas to him. A fellow enthusiast accepted the offer, ordered two pizzas from Papa John’s, and thus began the era of Bitcoin's use as a currency.

To put it in perspective, 10,000 BTC, which was worth about $41 at the time, is valued at hundreds of millions of dollars today. This event has become a symbol of Bitcoin’s growth and the limitless possibilities of blockchain technology.
