Binance hosted over 25 in-person meet-ups across countries like Italy, Vietnam, Bahrain, Brazil, Cambodia, Uruguay, Mexico, and Argentina. Participants enjoyed pizza-themed activities, including competitions and pop-up pizzerias. Online, users engaged in the "Collect & Win" challenge by completing tasks on the Binance app to collect unique pizza flavors. Those who collected all three flavors earned a chance to win the BTC equivalent of a year's supply of pizza, valued at approximately $4,745. (Binance, Binance, Binance)
