the day when a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made the first documented purchase of a real-world item using Bitcoin—two pizzas for 10,000 $BTC .

At today’s prices, that purchase would be worth over $680 million, making it arguably the most expensive pizza order in history.On that day in 2010, Hanyecz posted on a Bitcoin forum offering 10,000 $BTC to anyone who would order him two large pizzas. A British user accepted the offer and had two Papa John's pizzas delivered to Hanyecz’s home in Florida.

At the time, Bitcoin was nearly worthless—valued at less than a penny per coin. The transaction was more about experimenting with Bitcoin’s potential than its price.#LearnAndDiscuss
