Meet the man who spent millions worth of Bitcoin on only two pizzas

in DTube5 years ago


In the beginning, Bitcoin was just a hobby and an interesting experiment conducted at home by some computer programmers and Laszlo Hanyecz was one of them. His computer was in one of those computers which were helping to maintain the Bitcoin network. Satoshi Nakamoto's software rewarded him about 10000 BTC. But if we go back in 2010 then these 10000 Bitcoin worth was round about $30. So one day he goes to one Crypto chatting online forum and asked whether anyone would be willing to buy him some pizza in exchange of 10000 Bitcoin, and someone replied: "Hey, I'll-- you know, I'll take you up on that offer."
Two pizzas were obtained with 10000BTC and he enjoyed with his daughter about 10 years ago. And now we all celebrate Bitcoin Pizza day on every 22 May.
