On May 22, 2010, a man named Laszlo Hanyecz made history.
He spent 10,000 BTC—worth over $600 million today—on two pizzas.
Most people hear that and say, “What a mistake.”
But if you really understand crypto, you’ll see something else:
Courage. Vision. Conviction.
Back then, Bitcoin was a barely-known experiment.
No exchanges. No stablecoins. No institutions.
Just code, community, and curiosity.
Laszlo didn’t waste Bitcoin.
He proved it could work in the real world.
That $600M pizza was the first step toward a world where:
We send money globally without banks
We hold assets outside of inflation
We build financial systems owned by the people
Bitcoin Pizza Day isn’t a story of regret.
It’s a story of early adoption and the price of progress.
Everyone wants to be early.
But being early means taking risks when nobody else gets it.#
