The pizza million

The first purchase of products made with bitcoins was held on 22 May 2010. Laszlo Hanyecs offered 10,000 BTC for two pizzas, which at the time was one of China business.

Very volatile, the currency was worth only fractions of cents in 2010 and the idea of ​​buying two pizzas for thousands of bitcoins was more than reasonable.

But in 2013 everything changed. When investors and speculators began to be interested in bitcoins, a virtual currency acquired great value.

Thus, 1 bitcoin was worth up to $ 1200, but then stabilized between $ 500 and $ 700. Converting to current values, Laszlo pizzas would be worth about $ 6 million!

At least Laszlo Hanyecs can take comfort in knowing that your purchase was a milestone in the history of Bitcoin. In the Bitcoin community, May 22 became known as the International Day of Bitcoin.
