One of the most iconic moments in crypto history, “Bitcoin Pizza Day,” is celebrated globally every year on May 22. To honor this legendary milestone, Binance TR, one of Turkey’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, is hosting a special community meetup. The event will take place on May 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM at De Marke Agency in Ataşehir, Istanbul.
Looking back, Bitcoin Pizza Day commemorates the day when Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer, paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas on May 22, 2010 — the first known transaction where Bitcoin was used to purchase a physical product. Since then, this date has symbolized the growing adoption of cryptocurrencies worldwide.
To celebrate this occasion, Binance TR is bringing the crypto community together for an exciting event filled with delicious pizza, soft drinks, and a \$1000 prize pool. Attendees will also have the chance to network with industry participants and fellow crypto enthusiasts. Entry is limited to the first 200 people, and participants must show their Binance TR user ID (UID) at the door.
In addition to the networking and refreshments, the event will include photo and video coverage to capture the memories. A dedicated Telegram group is also available for coordination and further updates.
