Every year on May 22, the crypto community commemorates Bitcoin Pizza Day — the day in 2010 when Laszlo Hanyecz made history by buying two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. What seemed like a quirky transaction at the time has since become a symbol of Bitcoin’s growth and the evolution of decentralized finance.
Binance, one of the world’s leading crypto exchanges, has embraced this day with enthusiasm. Each year, Binance hosts global events, giveaways, and charity initiatives to celebrate the milestone. The goal is not only to honor Bitcoin’s journey but also to spread awareness about crypto adoption and blockchain education.
In 2025, Binance took things up a notch by launching community-driven campaigns and pizza-themed NFT drops. Their outreach extended to over 30 countries, encouraging users to share how Bitcoin has impacted their lives. Binance also partnered with local pizza shops to offer discounts to crypto users, turning the celebration into a global festivity.
Bitcoin Pizza Day reminds us how far the crypto world has come—from buying pizza to powering a trillion-dollar ecosystem. Thanks to platforms like Binance, the legacy continues to inspire millions toward financial freedom and innovation.$BTC
