Back on May 22, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz (Pizza Meme Guy) made waves by trading 10,000 Bitcoins for two Papa John’s pizzas. At the time, those Bitcoins were worth like $41, but today, they’d be approximately $ 1B! 👀
Folks think Laszlo blew it spending that much on pizza, while others reckon he’s a legend for believing in Bitcoin when it was just this weird new thing.
Laszlo’s pizza buy was the first time anyone used Bitcoin to snag something real-world. It put Bitcoin on the map, got people talking, and probably helped kick off its rise to what it is now.
