Thoughts on first BTC transaction

in #basicincome8 years ago

I am sure allot of you guys know the story of the very first Bitcoin transaction made! For those of you who are not that familiar with Bitcoins and do not- well, here is the story.

Bitcoins was created in 2008 by Satoshi Nakamoto. At the time, BTC had like very little value $0.008. On 22 May 2010, user "laszlo" made the first real-world transaction by buying two pizzas delivered by Papa John’s in Jacksonville, Florida for 10,000 BTC. Just 2 months later, the BTC value grew to $0.08.

The price of BTC had alot of ups and downs as it became more popular of the next few years breaking $1000 threshold on 27 November 2013. 

Do the math - 10,000 BTC x $1,000 = $10,000,000. That is a very expensive pizza.If only he had kept it a while longer.

If that were to me...............................................


So out of curiosity, what would you have done?
