🍕🪙 THE 600 MILLION DOLLAR DINNER: THE TRANSACTION THAT GAVE LIFE TO #BITCOIN 🍕
On May 22, 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history. He was hungry.🪙
He posted a message on a Bitcoin forum: "I will pay 10,000 bitcoins for a couple of pizzas... maybe 2 large so I have some left over for tomorrow".
At that time, 10,000 BTC was worth about 41 dollars. A teenager accepted the deal, ordered two pizzas from Papa John's, and sent them to Laszlo.
It was the first time Bitcoin was used to buy a real-world good.
Today, those 10,000 Bitcoins would be worth over 1.250 BILLION DOLLARS.💵🤑
People often mock Laszlo for spending a fortune on a dinner. But they are wrong. He didn't lose a fortune; he gave Bitcoin an initial value. He demonstrated that it was not just code, that it could be real money.
Every time you buy a coffee or anything with crypto, you are following in the footsteps of that first brave pizza order.
If you could travel back in time and tell Laszlo something that day, what would it be? 🚀🚀#BTCBreaksATH $BTC
