The story of Bitcoin Pizza shows how emerging technology can evolve in unexpected ways. What started as a simple transaction has become a symbol of the evolution of cryptocurrency. It reminds us of the importance of innovation and embracing new experiences, even if they seem worthless at first.
On May 22, 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz bought two pizzas from the chain “Papa John’s” for 10,000 Bitcoins. At the time, the value of Bitcoin was very low, only about $0.0041 per coin, making the transaction worth only about $41.
As of May 17, 2025, the price of Bitcoin is about $102,918. Therefore, the value of 10,000 Bitcoins used to buy pizza in 2010 is equivalent to about US$1.03 billion today, making it the most expensive pizza in history. 0 reply
