Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day everyone!

On this day, on 22nd May in 2010, two pizzas were ordered for 10,000 BTC.
Back then, when Bitcoin was just a year old, that price was quite fair. 10,000 Bitcoins were somewhat around $25. With today's Bitcoin price those two pizzas are now worth $21,200,000 USD! Without a doubt the most expensive pizzas ever.

2 pizzas in 2010 = 10,000 BTC

2 pizzas in 2017 = 0.0118 BTC


The price of pizza has dropped a lot in 7 years! In addition, as long as Bitcoin continues to make new all time highs, they are getting cheaper by the day!


Nothing beats the taste of a good pizza payed with Bitcoin!
Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day everyone!

Disclaimer: If you're going to celebrate this event by ordering pizza, don't make the mistake to pay with Steem. It may be another very expensive pizza one day! ;-)

lol 10Btc for a pizza.
Today that would be an EXPENSIVE pizza...

10000 BTC, not 10

Oh, wow.

Thank you for sharing this great story. It is always very fascinating whenever I get a chance to think about it.

This story really stops one in his tracks when considering possibilities!

Ouch! But.. an integral tragedy and good story today ;-P

Did the merchant keep the Bitcoins? :)

I think he regret he did not.

Happy belated bitcoin pizza day.

This is like a stab in the heart. But also reminds us to HODL.
