What if we told you that two pizzas kickstarted a financial revolution?
On May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by buying two large pizzas for 10,000 BTC—the first known real-world transaction using Bitcoin. Back then, Bitcoin was a new concept. Today, those 10,000 BTC would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. That moment is now celebrated every year as #BitcoinPizzaDay, a reminder of how far we’ve come and how fast things can change.
At Binance, we don’t just celebrate pizza—we celebrate progress. Pizza symbolizes something bigger: belief in innovation, in change, and in the power of community. That one transaction proved that crypto could be more than just code—it could be currency, capable of transforming how we interact with the world.
From that first slice to now, the crypto space has grown into a global movement. Millions of people use cryptocurrencies not just to trade, but to build, support, donate, invest, and innovate. And yet, it all started with two hot, cheesy pizzas.
So today, we reflect—not just on a tasty bit of history—but on our shared journey as a community. Whether you’re a seasoned trader, a curious beginner, or just here for the memes and pineapple-on-pizza debates, remember: you are part of something revolutionary.
Because in crypto, even the smallest transaction can lead to world-changing impact.
Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day from Binance.
Where the future is served—one slice at a time.
