Every year on May 22, the crypto community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day, marking the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin. On this day in 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas. At the time, Bitcoin had little to no market value, making this a groundbreaking moment in crypto history.
Looking back, those 10,000 Bitcoins would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars today. This event symbolizes how far cryptocurrency has come—from a niche experiment to a global financial movement.
Binance and other crypto platforms often celebrate this day with special promotions and campaigns, honoring the milestone. More than just a fun story, Bitcoin Pizza Day is a powerful reminder of innovation, risk-taking, and the unpredictable journey of emerging technologies.
