In 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made the first purchase in history using Bitcoin, paying 10,000 BTC for two Papa John's pizzas. At that time, the value of those bitcoins was just 41 dollars, but today they could be worth millions.
This extravagant transaction marked the beginning of the adoption of BTC as a means of payment, and since then, Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated every May 22nd. If Laszlo had held onto those 10,000 BTC, he would now have more than 650 million dollars.
Would you have exchanged your bitcoins for pizza? Tell me in the comments!
