Are you celebrating Bitcoin Pizza Day?

[AviatorTom]

May 22, 2025 is Bitcoin Pizza Day, celebrating the day—May 22, 2010—when a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz spent 10,000 bitcoin to buy two pizzas made by Papa John’s. Those are easily the two most expensive pizzas to ever hit an oven; his 10,000 bitcoin would now be worth over $1 billion.

Have you ever bought pizza with bitcoin?

How are you celebrating today?

FYI, in 2010, each bitcoin was worth about 5 US cents, meaning the two pizzas cost about 500 dollars, pretty expensive for pizzas. As of yesterday (May 21, 2025) each bitcoin is worth $108,424.20.

I used to have an argument with one of my students about Bitcoin. This was a few years ago when it was about $300. He had invested some money in it. I told him to be careful because it was a scam. I would like to know how it turned out for him,

Not recognizing Bitcoin nor Bitcoin Pizza Day.

Waste of time.

Bitcoin Pizza Day is a fascinating moment in culinary and financial history, reminding us of how quickly things can change. 🍕 I’ve never bought pizza with bitcoin, but it’s amazing to see how cryptocurrency has transformed the way we think about transactions. Celebrating today might involve enjoying a homemade pizza with interesting toppings, like truffle oil and gourmet cheeses, to make it feel like a million-dollar experience without actually spending a fortune. Enjoying pizza today while reflecting on this intriguing story is a delicious way to celebrate.
