Binance Pizza 🍕 😆

The Original Bitcoin Pizza Story

On May 22, 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz made the first real-world Bitcoin transaction by buying two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. At that time, Bitcoin had almost no monetary value — the 10,000 $BTC he spent was worth about $41. Today, that same amount is worth over $1 billion, making those pizzas the most expensive ever purchased.

This moment has become symbolic of:

The early adoption of crypto

The evolution of digital currency

The belief in Bitcoin's potential long before it became mainstream

Binance's Tribute to the Pizza Story

Each year on May 22, Binance celebrates this milestone with events, giveaways, and global community activities to honor the spirit of Bitcoin Pizza Day. Their goal is to:

Educate newcomers about crypto’s roots

Promote crypto adoption

Celebrate the community that has helped build the ecosystem

Binance Pizza Day Themes

"From Pizza to Prosperity": Binance emphasizes how a simple transaction turned into a global movement.

Global Community: Binance organizes local pizza parties, meetups, and online competitions to bring people together.

Rewards and Games: With themed challenges, trivia, and referral campaigns, Binance gives away $USDC $BTC and vouchers to participants.

In essence, Binance uses the Pizza Day story to show how far crypto has come — from two pizzas to billions — and to inspire the next wave of innovation and adoption.
