Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day May 22, 2010 10,000 BTC spent on pizza

in #bitcoin8 years ago

7 years ago. One guy said he would give ten thousand bitcoins to anyone that would get pizza delivered to him.

"May 22, 2010
10,000 BTC spent on pizza
The first, real-world transaction using Bitcoins takes place when a Jacksonville, Florida programmer, Laszlo Hanyecz, offers to pay 10,000 Bitcoins for a pizza on the Bitcoin Forum. At the time, the exchange rate put the purchase price for the pizza at around US$25"

This is insane, who would believe this!!!

and what a journey it's been

It was a fair trade, and trade it was, or purchase rather.
All the original adopters, were hoarders or spenders. have a story.
Rags to riches , and more than a fair share of " if only "........
I play at the original BTC Casino, the stories that come out of there are sad.
The bets that took place back in the day, well you can imagine :-)
The owner funded the casino by buying 80,000 BTC at $0.50 each, set for life !
