🍕💰 Bitcoin Pizza Day (2010)
The most legendary story in crypto history starts with… two pizzas.
👉 On May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made the first real-world Bitcoin purchase.
👉 He paid 10,000 BTC for two Papa John’s pizzas — worth about $41 at the time.
👉 Today, those 10,000 BTC would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. 🔥
This simple transaction proved that Bitcoin wasn’t just “magic internet money” — it could be used like real cash. The crypto community now celebrates May 22 as Bitcoin Pizza Day every year.
Laszlo himself has no regrets. He said: “It wasn’t like bitcoins had any value back then, so the idea of trading them for pizza was incredibly cool.”🍕
💡 Lesson: Sometimes the smallest transactions become historic milestones. What seemed like a joke at the time turned into the story that defined Bitcoin adoption.
👉 Would you spend 10,000 BTC on pizza today, or keep HODLing forever? 🤔💎
