This man—Laszlo Hanyecz—paid 10,000 $BTC for 2 pizzas.
Back then: ~$25
Today: ~$1 BILLION
Yes, BILLION with a B.
He posted on a forum:
“I’ll pay 10,000 BTC for two pizzas.”
Someone accepted. Papa John’s delivered. And crypto history was made.
Now, every May 22 is Bitcoin Pizza Day, honoring the first real-world $BTC transaction.
With $BTC near $100K today, can he ever forgive himself?
Tough question.
But without Laszlo’s "mistake," maybe crypto wouldn't have gone mainstream.
Cheers to the man who fed the future.
