This is not an official holiday – after all – but for many cryptocurrency enthusiasts, "Bitcoin Pizza Day" is still special. Thursday marks the 15th anniversary of the first known use of cryptocurrency to purchase goods in the real world.

10,000 Bitcoin, which software developer Laszlo Hanyecz paid for two pizzas from Papa John's, delivered to his home in Florida on May 22, 2010, were worth about $41 at the time. Today they are worth $1.1 billion.
