It is often associated with Bitcoin Pizza Day, which is celebrated annually on May 22.
Bitcoin Pizza Day commemorates the first known real transaction using Bitcoin, which took place on May 22, 2010. On this day, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 Bitcoins for two Papa John's pizzas. At that time, the value of 10,000 Bitcoins was around $41. Today, it would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars!
