On May 22, 2010, a Florida programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by buying two large pizzas. But this wasn’t just any pizza order—it was the first real-world transaction using Bitcoin.
Laszlo paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas from Papa John’s (delivered by another user who accepted the Bitcoin and paid cash). At the time, 10,000 BTC was worth about $41—a reasonable price for two pizzas.
No one knew then that Bitcoin’s value would skyrocket. At Bitcoin’s peak prices in later years, those pizzas would’ve been worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Today, the transaction is a symbol of Bitcoin’s early adoption and massive rise in value.
Since then, May 22 is celebrated as Bitcoin Pizza Day in the crypto community—a quirky reminder of how far Bitcoin has come.
