Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated every year on May 22nd to mark the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin. On this day in 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by purchasing two large pizzas for 10,000 BTC. At that time, Bitcoin was nearly worthless — the 10,000 BTC he spent was worth about $41. He posted his offer on a Bitcoin forum, and another user accepted, ordering pizzas from Papa John's on his behalf.
While it seemed like a casual transaction then, this event later became iconic. As Bitcoin’s value skyrocketed over the years, those two pizzas gained legendary status. At Bitcoin's peak, 10,000 BTC was worth over $500 million, making it the most expensive pizza purchase in history.
Bitcoin Pizza Day serves as a reminder of how far the cryptocurrency world has come — from niche internet money to a global financial revolution. It also highlights the risk and unpredictability of early adoption. Today, crypto enthusiasts celebrate this day with memes, events, and sometimes even pizza parties, honoring both the humble beginning of Bitcoin and the man who spent millions on two slices of history.$BTC #BinancePizzaDay🍕 #bitcoinpizzaday
