PIZZA DAY #Pizzaday2025
HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR A PIZZA?
May 22, 2010, is forever recorded in history as the day when the first purchase with bitcoins was made. Developer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 $BTC for two pizzas in Jacksonville, United States, which opened the floodgates for bitcoin to begin its use as a payment currency.
Thus, Bitcoin Pizza Day was born, one of the most significant anniversaries for the bitcoin ecosystem worldwide. With each passing year, Bitcoin Pizza Day has gained more notoriety, not only within the Bitcoin community. Today, those pizzas are worth $1,116,400,000.
