Bitcoin Pizza Day. The fabulous occasion that takes place as soon as annually on Could 22. I will not bore you with all the main points. Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for 2 Papa John’s pizzas in what’s broadly believed to be the primary transaction of bitcoin for a bodily good.
Let’s put some greenback worth on this transaction.
- The 2 pizzas collectively have been roughly valued at $41 on the time based mostly on the quantity of bitcoin paid.
- The bitcoin value hit an all-time excessive of $68,990. At 10,000 BTC, that is a $689,000,000 windfall at an all-time excessive.
- That is an astonishing $43,000,000 (roughly) per pizza slice (assuming 16 slices)!
