Celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day by Ordering Pizza with Bitcoin

Bitcoin Pizza day is May 22nd. Celebrate this year by ordering pizza with Bitcoin! Learn the history behind the customary pizza day and how to buy the perfect pizza pie with Bitcoin.


What is Bitcoin Pizza Day?

Bitcoin Pizza Day marks the day on which an early Bitcoin enthusiast purchased pizza using Bitcoin on May 22nd, 2010. The guy who bought pizza with Bitcoin was a programmer and early miner named Laszlo Hanyecz.

Hanyecz made a post on a Bitcoin forum offering 10k Bitcoin for two large pizzas. Eventually someone took him up on his offer and delivered two Papa Johns pizzas.

At the time, 10,000 Bitcoin was worth $41. Compared to its all-time-high, those 10,000 Bitcoin would be valued at $690,000,000! Despite this, Hanyecz has no regrets about using his cryptocurrency to buy pizza.  Buying pizza with Bitcoin made crypto real for him when it was barely known outside of the crypto community.
