Ten years ago, Laszlo Hanyecz (a developer) decided to make a use case with bitcoin. Hanyecz is the first person to use bitcoin to buy something. He bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC.
At the time, 10,000 BTC was $41 dollars.
Now it is around $90 million dollars.
This day has become a day of celebration as โBitcoin Pizza Day.โ
If you want, you can read the original conversation

It's kinda funny!
Someone even commented like this
Little did this guy know that he would be off by 89 million dollars!!!!!
๐ Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day~!

I think he had done it to prove that BTC at that time can be used to buy a product or service. @gungho but he definitely no thinking that BTC would go up in crazy but expected prices today.
I told my brother about BTC when it was still 5 cents, to mine it with his computer at his office in his workplace, he just ignored me.

Wow! you knew about bitcoin when it was only 5 cents? You had a sense of value because you knew it would grow big. It always seems that siblings never listen, do they. I didn't know about Bitcoin until it became the highest price in 2017 because I read an article on it. By then, it was too late. Back then, Steem was $3.40 for 1 Steem. Now it is 13~20 cents. Cryptocurrency is very volatile. Nobody knows what the value will be sometime down the road. It could surprise you positively or negatively.

I was already trading at Poloniex around 2017 too when I learned about steem token, I noticed that it has a good swing price then I discovered about steem community from a trollbox of Hashnest the cloudmining site. One guy there shares his post in the trollbox and I went to see what it is all about I told myself to give it a go because I know how to make a basic blog already. The rest is history until now @gungho

Steem community came to my aid in that time that steem was mooning which is why I was able to support myself until now.

The bitcoin pizza story is such an interesting part of the crypto curreny's history. It was also a pretty big milestone for bitcoin as well being the first, or one of the first, transactions with the coins. It was a great way to spread the coins to new users as well

He's kind of like a hero for taking the first step in trying to use the coins regardless of the value of them or what value they would be in the future. I don't think I could have spent 10,000 Bitcoin on a couple of pizzas even when it was 41 bucks. What about you?

Powerdown has now been changed to 25%, which in a sense is now possible to fully powerdown in 4 weeks.
If you cancel your powerdown (drip drip...10 weeks), you can speed up the process. But in your case, you only have 3 days left, so after that you could cancel and get more. Just a suggestion.
Your 25% is 248.5โฌ @leaky20 instead of 109
It looks like steemit will die in 4 weeks? I don't know, just a guess.
We have to be quick on our feet.
