In 2010, a programmer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by completing the first known real-world transaction using Bitcoin. He famously paid 10,000 Bitcoins for two pizzas from Papa John's, which at the time was worth about $41. Fast forward a decade, and those same 10,000 Bitcoins would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The story of "Bitcoin Pizza Day" serves as a quirky reminder of the cryptocurrency's volatile yet incredible journey. It started as an experiment in digital currency and has since evolved into a global phenomenon, reshaping finance and technology in ways few could have imagined. Laszlo’s pizzas have since become a symbol of the potential—and unpredictability—of the crypto world.
