Kakashi2020 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I think we've all heard about the guy who bought 2 boxes of pizza paying 10,000 btc in the early days of Bitcoin in May 2010. The guys name was Laszlo Hanyecz who is now immortalized in history as the first person who successfully purchased a good using Bitcoin. He successfully traded 10000 btc for 2 boxes of pizza. Do the math, that's like paying $100 million in today's money for 2 boxes of pizza.

NerdIndeed Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 That's one hefty price tag for two boxes of pizza! I hope it was all excellent and out of this world delicious when they had eaten it.

JPK0007 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Well, that is certainly a mind boggling amount for buying two boxes of Pizza. I am sure this person must be thinking of the transaction hae had done in the past all the time. Would he be feeling great to have purchased the Pizza by spending so many Bitcoins or would he be thinking about the value of the Bitcoins that grew exponentially afterwards? Whatever may be the case, he surely become a part of History when he did this transaction.

Rathiel Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Given the rate it was first traded at, and compared to the value of bitcoin now... Well, I can for sure say that this guy is probably regretting not holding onto his BTC back then. But there always has to be first for everything, and it's great that he managed to prove that it's possible to trade a deregulated, virtual currency for a tangible good! He'll have a story to tell, at the very least.

Caguioa747 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 You can't blame the guy because no one really expects that bitcoin price will skyrocket. but with 10,000 bitcoin today you can already make your own pizza company.

Martinsx Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Damn! That's very crazy. Why would he choose to pay for pizza with Bitcoin is the question I'm going to be needing an answer to.

Alania Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Holy cow! I wonder how does he feels right now? I mean that's a whole amount of money. I would deliver him 100 pizzas for that sum, haha!
