I like onions, peppers, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, pepperoni, etc. Just standard stuff without a weird fish topping. I also like regular cheese pizzas, which can be cheaper to make. If you're interested, let me know and we can find an agreement."

The World Saliva on the 15th Anniversary of Bitcoin Pizza Day
This purchase is historic for bitcoin and has demonstrated that BTC can be used for tangible, material purchases. The door to more widespread adoption for Bitcoin was beginning to open up, as Satoshi Nakamoto invented it in 2008, two years earlier. BTC could be a viable alternative to traditional currencies.
Thus, like a recipe that is passed down from generation to generation, every year Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated as a real banquet by the community. This year, he is celebrating his 15th birthday. Special promotions, awareness workshops, pizza events are all moments that explain the importance of this unifying event for the crypto community.
You will have understood this. Bitcoin Pizza Day is more than just a celebration of buying pizza. It has become a convivial moment that, over time, allows us to become aware of how far Bitcoin has come. Let's not forget the other famous dates that delight the crypto community over the months. The publication of the white paper by Satoshi Nakamoto on October 31, 2008, the launch of his blockchain network on January 3, 2009; or the day Bitcoin became a legal tender currency in El Salvador on September 7, 2021, all these dates are all moments that weave the Queen's history.
Two pizzas for 10,000 BTC: when history has an appetite
A little retrospective is needed. Let's remember. On May 22, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz, a developer, paid 10,000 BTC ($41) to satisfy a simple desire: to buy two pizzas.
At the time, therefore, our hero of the day placed an ad on the Bitcointalk forum. And a few days later, a greedy man takes the bait and accepts the transaction. For 10,000 bitcoins, or $1.1 billion at the current BTC price, Hanyecz received two large pizzas from Papa John's. Bitcoin had a new taste: that of a tomato-based pizza
"I'll pay 10,000 bitcoins for a few pizzas... like maybe two big ones to get me left over for the next day. I like to have pizza to snack on later. You can make the pizza yourself and take it to my home or order it for me at a delivery point, but what I'm aiming for is to have food delivered to me in exchange for bitcoins where I don't have to order it or prepare it myself, a bit like ordering a "breakfast platter" in a hotel or something like that, they just bring you something to eat and you're happy!
