Bitcoin Pizza Day reminds us of what we are capable of — if we are willing to take risks.
In 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz proved that you could buy something real for $BTC . His simple pizza purchase sparked the idea that decentralized money could work in everyday life.
What will happen in 10 years?
Imagine that in 2035 you walk into a supermarket and pay with Bitcoin from your phone. Sounds like fantasy? But if you look at the trends — it's no longer fantasy.
The Lightning Network speeds up payments. Mastercard and Visa are integrating crypto. Even Starbucks is testing BTC payments. The technologies are almost ready.
But for mass adoption, more is needed than just infrastructure. Trust, convenience, and motivation are required. Just as people initially laughed at email, today they are skeptical about crypto payments.
Revolutions do not start with consensus. They start with action.
Laszlo's transaction was just the beginning. The next step is to make using BTC as simple as Apple Pay, as understandable as Monobank, and as convenient as Google Pay.
Bitcoin will not become commonplace just through HODL. It needs daily application. This is how we can change the financial system — and honor the spirit of Bitcoin Pizza Day.
The pizza was just an appetizer. The main course is the decentralized future that we are creating together.
