Would you spend 10,000 BTC today?
Imagine: you wake up, open your wallet — and there are 10,000 $BTC . Approximately 670 million dollars.
Would you spend it?
In 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz did just that. He exchanged 10,000 BTC for two pizzas, creating the most famous receipt in cryptocurrency history. But back then, Bitcoin had no market value. There were no exchanges, no liquidity — just faith.
Today, BTC is a financial giant. It is treasured like digital gold. But if no one is going to spend it, then it is not money, but a collectible asset.
That is why Laszlo's story is important — it was an act of faith in practicality.
More than a decade has passed, and spending BTC still feels "forbidden." What if it increases in value? That thought is understandable, but it also limits: mass adoption depends on use, not just storage.
The true value of Bitcoin is not in hiding it, but in changing the way we interact with the world of finance.
If Laszlo had not spent that BTC — would anyone ever have proven that cryptocurrency works in real life?
Sometimes, to make history, you have to take a bold step. Would you dare?
