Let’s take a moment to honor the most delicious milestone in crypto history—Bitcoin Pizza Day! Yes, that’s right. Every May 22nd, the crypto world celebrates the legendary transaction where 10,000 BTC bought two pizzas. If that sounds insane now, wait till you hear the story.

Back in 2010, a dude named Laszlo Hanyecz made what might be the most expensive pizza purchase in history. At the time, Bitcoin was barely worth a dime—more of a nerdy experiment than a digital gold rush. But Laszlo decided to trade 10,000 BTC for two Papa John’s pizzas. That’s right, 10,000 Bitcoin for two pizzas. Today, those pizzas would be worth… well, enough to buy an entire pizza chain and maybe a small island.

Imagine Laszlo telling his friends:
"Guys, I just spent 10,000 Bitcoins on pizza. Totally normal."
Cue the confused stares.

This humble pizza transaction gave birth to Bitcoin’s first real-world purchase and proved Bitcoin could actually buy things beyond internet geek cred and cryptic math. It’s like the first-ever “proof of pizza” — tasty, tangible proof that crypto isn’t just numbers on a screen.

So, on this day, crypto fans worldwide celebrate by ordering a pizza, checking their wallet, and wondering if they accidentally just ate millions. Moral of the story? Next time you’re craving pizza, maybe hold off spending your crypto—unless you want your slice to be a future collector’s item.

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day! Here’s to tasty transactions and the original “blockchain slice” 🍕💸
