Bitcoin Pizza Day is always celebrated every May 22nd
What is Bitcoin Pizza Day?
Bitcoin Pizza Day is the anniversary of the first Bitcoin transactions in the world. Bitcoin was first traded on May 22nd, 2010. Because it was the first time Bitcoin was transacted by buying two pizza pans with 10,000 BTC.
Wow, so many! Because at that time, BTC had no price. In fact, currently, it is Rp. 600 million.
A programmer Laszlo Hanyecz offers his 10,000 Bitcoins online. In return, he wants 2 pizza pans.
Tit for tat, the offer was accepted by his fellow programmer in London, England. Then, the colleague called a pizzeria outlet near where Laszlo lives in Jacksonville, Florida, United States. His colleague paid for pizza using his credit card. Then, Laszlo sent 10,000 Bitcoin to his partner, followed by the arrival of two hot pizzas he wanted.
At that time, the price of Bitcoin was only US $ 0.008 per chip, if multiplied by the current average dollar exchange rate this amount was equivalent to Rp. 112 per BTC.
Who Owns the Most Bitcoin
Until now, Bitcoin has become very popular. Laszlo has already exchanged 10,000 BTC for just two pizza pans.
In the course of the increase in the price of Bitcoin with the highest price of IDR 950 million, a number of important figures have appeared. In fact, Elon Musk was able to influence the Bitcoin price.
