On May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas. At today’s prices, that’s over $1 billion—making it the most expensive pizza in history!
Why it matters:
1️⃣ Bitcoin Pizza Day marks the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin.
2️⃣ It proved BTC could function as money—even if it was for pizza.
3️⃣ It’s a reminder of how far crypto adoption has come since 2010.
💡 Did you know? Bitcoin was worth less than $0.01 when Laszlo made that order. Learn more about Bitcoin and its early history here.
