Happy bitcoin pizza day everyone!!!

On this day, May 22 2010 the first documented exchange of bitcoins for real world goods happened. Florida-based programmer and early cryptocurrency enthusiast Laszlo Hanyecz posted on the bitcoin talk forum that he would exchange 10,000 bitcoins for 2 large pizzas, and someone called Jeremy Sturdivant was the counterparty to this offer.
By today’s price that was around $82 million for 2 pizzas. A huge thank you to these two people for paving the way and helping to kickstart Bitcoin adoption worldwide!

Imagine how many Bitcoins he owned at the time though! Probably a few million!!

Most likely! Oh to have a time machine and get in that early...

@skycorridors... Thanks for posting...

Especially like how You were able to manage the microphone while taking a healthy, big bite of pizza.

By the way, the pizza looks tasty... what are the toppings ?
Cheers !!

Haha multitalented I guess! ;)
It's a V for Vegan pizza from Two Boots, really good!

I still get a good laugh out of this and the fact holding onto that would've set the person up to buy pizzas every night for the rest of their life. :P

I love that our yearly celebration is literally a celebration of pizza :) :)

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day! And awesome HODL sweatshirt. Bon appetit!
