Bitcoin Forum

Hi all, I'm a new Bitcoin user and I'm starting to generate some of my own coins.  I have a few friends who are also using it now.

I am a programmer by trade and have a fair amount of experience with different platforms like linux, Mac OS, iPhone, etc.

I am interested in running Bitcoin on other platforms like iPhone and I'm wondering if there is any interest in this or if anyone has a problem with this.  I'm also wondering if someone has already done this so I don't waste my time.  Thanks!

My Bitcoin address is 1XPTgDRhN8RFnzniWCddobD9iKZatrvH4

Heya Laszlo,

Welcome! I sent you some bitcoins to play with ;) Come hang out with us on irc.freenode.org #bitcoin-dev

- duck

It's kind of funny to read these old posts and see how people threw bitcoins at eachother. lol :)

If you google OP's address there are several addresses with 100btc that have remained untouched since 2011.

most likely lost

Ouch. This was like one of the first old posts address I followed and already so much btc lost. I wonder how much of the 12 mil that are out there now are still in circulation and accessible.

As Satoshi said it himself..... lost coins are like donated coins..... to EVERYONE. So i dont mind lost coins at all.... i wish half of that 12 millions are lost.... :D

Imagine in the future if btc would hit 100.000$, people are gonna start teaming up to hunt these lost address down and try to access them.

Actually, why haven't they already started?

You're one confusing dude arent you?

because btc is not 100k yet.... duh !

but wallets with 5k+ in them might be worth the trouble today also. :)

You do realize that you just necro'ed the first post of the guy who bought the famous 10K BTC pizza?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137

I thought somebody had hacked his account at first in a begging attempt, then saw the date  :D.

I spent it all on pizza long ago:  https://blockchain.info/address/1XPTgDRhN8RFnzniWCddobD9iKZatrvH4

3-4 years ago there were less than 100 people frequenting this forum, and I was pretty happy to trade 10,000 coins for pizza.  I mean people can say I'm stupid, but it was a great deal at the time.  I don't think anyone could have known it would take off like this. :)

Laszlo

Now I definitely think your account has been hacked  ;D.

I'm glad to hear that your critics have not worn you down.

Holy shit, didn't realize it was him!

Seems like the infamous buyer of the most expensive pizza of all time has joined us in the thread!^^

At the time, Gavin had a bitcoin 'faucet' that gave out bitcoins for free, and a few people were trading them for less than a cent each, but nothing serious.  You can probably find all the old posts on this forum still.  I was learning OpenCL programming and mining bitcoins with a video card so the pizza was a good deal for me.  I couldn't have known that my pizza trade would end up being such a big deal, or that so many others would become interested in bitcoin and thus drive the value up.  The people I traded with didn't know it was going to explode either, they just took a risk - spending their 'real' money to buy some guy pizza in exchange for some internet Monopoly money. 

Laszlo

Haha. I thought that's why you had bumped it.


Do you know what the guy you bought the pizza did with the coins? Haven't you had a load of messages or media requests? Why did you choose to stop by now after all this time?

Haha there are so many old posts to dig that are interesting, I often read them

You have found a good one + an update of the OP; @ laszlo : can you tell us more about how you lived the Bitcoin revolution? Did you quit your studies or your job to go have margarita.s on an island?

I wonder what became of jercos, you ever had a chance to take him out for a pizza? ;)

Probably should be the other way round  :D.

If I was you I'd sell or make my own Pizza and try sell or raffle it on here haha. I'm sure you'd get a lot of interest.

I heard from one person who bought a house with their pizza bitcoins, indirectly, by trading it for cash first.  Apparently it was a lot of hassle with the bank due to AML and just their general distaste for currencies they don't control.  I wish I could say I did the same, but the pizza didn't appreciate the same way as the bitcoins :)

I'd definitely eat at Laszlo's (though he should think about lowering the price…) ;)

I think any bank would become suspicious if you just suddenly dumped hundreds of thousands in there. I hope the Pizza tasted good. Was it just delivered from a Pizza Hut or something?


'Laszlo's' would actually make a good Pizza shop name  ;D.

It was two boxes of Papa John's. There's a pic floating about on the Internet somewhere but I'm too lazy to search for it right now and you might find it in the original BTC10k pizza thread.


:)

Pics are still in the same location for anyone interested.  I didn't trade bitcoins for the child - she's my daughter, Amy.  Only the pizza was traded.

http://eclipse.heliacal.net/~solar/bitcoin/pizza/

Laszlo's Pizzeria  ;D

sounds quite Italian.  you sir are a part of history.

Surely you have a few hundred bitcoins tucked away somewhere...you didn't really spend ALL of it on pizza, did you?

In honour of Laszlo I will make my first Bitcoin purchase a pizza thought takeaway.com (they accept Bitcoins). I wonder how much that pizza will be worth in a few years time? lol

You know you could actually sell pizzas based on your story. People sold burgers with less credentials than you based on their story..

You could be like the Buffalo Bill of Bitcoin, on tours, etc...

I'm sure he could make some coins out of this one way or another if he so wanted to  :D.

PizzaCoin! An alt you can sink your teeth into.

I wasn't really thinking about a crappy altcoin, but don't give people ideas haha.

Definitely not stupid. Part of a history and you could not have predicted that its going to gain such a value. Besides that such an amount would spoil you :-)
What is hilarious you just asked 4 years ago to get some BTC and someone throw at you 10 BTC :-) Now people would be killing for less

OP is a legend.  Bitcoin wouldn't be where it is today, without people supporting it 3/4 years ago (via mining, buying things, etc.).

i wanted to ask the same. are you a btc millionaire now or you spent all your btc there? somewhere in the middle perhaps?

Feeling hungry?  :)

Hopefully there are some leftovers still. :)

GPU mining BTC in 2010!??

a legend...

Welcome back, laszlo!

Thanks for getting the ball rolling, Laszlo, history was made that day.

It's great to have you back, laszlo!
Only stupid people would call you stupid.
You, sir, onehandedly started the real bitcoin economy.
It doesn't matter how many coins you had or have. You had vision, and you are part of history.

Hats off to you!

Ente

Thanks for the kind words guys.

The pizza thing was a lot more popular than I thought so I made good on as many trades as I could.  Other than a little bit of single digit change, I spent everything I mined.  As you all know, the difficulty rises to adjust to hashing power, so eventually the mining wasn't worth it for me.


As far as I know I was the first to release a GPU miner.  I contributed the hash meter back then too, that's what the screen shot was all about.  I used to maintain the Mac OS builds but others have taken that up now.  It was a fun project and I learned all about OpenCL.  I can't find the thread on the forum anymore but you can find it in my web dir ( http://eclipse.heliacal.net/~solar/bitcoin/sha256.cl ).  That was back in May 2010.  Maybe there were other people who were doing it in private too, though.  For a long time I had been looking for a reason to learn how to write a shader, and this was a great project for it.  The way I looked at it, I was helping out with an open source project, and I was making pizza with my code.

You guys will laugh now but I mined everything with an nvidia 9800 GTX+ on Mac OS (hackintosh, another scene I used to help out in).  I ended up getting 2 AMD Radeon 5970s with the bitcoins I was mining, but at the time, the OpenCL libraries from AMD and nvidia both were really buggy and I never got it to work right on more than one GPU.  The same code that would work on the nvidia on linux wouldn't work on windows and vice versa.  I was trying to make a generic OpenCL miner that everyone could run on all 3 platforms, and I spent months tweaking different kernels for each GPU, but I was also working two jobs at the time and so I never finished it.  I ended up just leaving bitcoin on the back burner for a few years, then it exploded and people started asking me about the pizza trades.  Every time the value goes up on exchanges, people email me asking me to comment on it, but really there isn't much more to tell than what I explained here.

This is the old GPU mining release I made for Mac OS, probably won't work anymore though: http://eclipse.heliacal.net/~solar/bitcoin/Bitcoin-MacOSX-Intel-svn-75-opencl-2010-05-10.dmg

Your story was one of the first ones i head about when getting into BTC. As in you can buy pizza with this internet money.
Sucks to hear that you didn't leave few thousand BTC on some floppy somewhere.

Wow!
I didn't know much more from you than the infamous pizza story. It all happened way before my time.
Well, in case you don't want to be seen as kind of a tragic bitcoin hero:
you already have more credibility than, lets say, MtGox and many of the other big bitcoin businesses. I don't know what your personal interests are these days, but whatever you do - a professional exchange, a meta-protocol, hardware, a foundation - you can be sure of a *lot* of attention.
With what I already knew of you, and the little I read now, I already stand behind you fully. In case you ever need a bunch of geeks standing behind you :-)
(I hope you don't understand this wrong. Financial success isn't the most important thing. But you sure deserve it)

Ente

Laszlo you legend! Just saw the pictures for the first time. Considering the pizzas were from Papa Johns, and you shared them with your daughter, I think you should call your pizza place Papa Laszlos.

This needs to be a project on bitcoinstarter.com

For sure I'll pledge!

I've been there, done that when I first got into Bitcoin too.  Everything I made was sold or spent.  I didn't start actually saving anything long-term until 2013.

Of course, if I was a Bitcoin millionaire, I'd probably tell people the same thing (that I had very little left), so as to make myself a less interesting hack target.  KnightMB did that with his 371,000 BTC.

The mystery always remains... ;)

great to see you back lazlo, and thanks from all those who wouldn't/couldn't or don't know to say it :)

do you remember who introduced you to bitcoin / how did you hear about it?

Good to know that you didn't trade your child for bitcoins

It makes you wonder what will happen in a few years to the price.  Will bitcoin become mainstream or will it fade away as a interesting footnote in history?

Welcome back Laszlo. Good to see you on the forum again. :)

Lazlo I'm here to say hi and thanks!
Without you and your pizza maybe bitcoin would be in the underground forever.

Also I wanna invite you and everyone to join the biggest Bitcoin community on Google+
https://plus.google.com/communities/115591368588047305300

Thank's again!
Nico

If you can recall, about how many of the trades did you end up doing?  I remember reading you posted that you were about done doing the trade and no longer honoring it later in the thread.

I live right off Gate Pkwy / Baymeadows East, so if you are still in J'ville, would love to buy you a beer sometime and thank you for your contribution.

  

This guy had 81k btc = 97 millions $ when btc was 1200 ......

I only have one criticism...did you have to order them from Papa John's? Wasn't there a better pizza place in your location? I don't want to impugn your taste or anything, but Papa John's makes terrible pizza in my experience.

Hehe, didn't know that u made the first gpu miner, that is pretty amazing!

If any of you could go back in time and had the mining power to mine as much btc as you wanted to, when would you stop mining, knowing the price will end up at 1250 in 4 years? When would you have enough btc to not give a fuck anymore?:)

kind of an ethical question.

Why don't you do a Reddit AMA? I'm sure you would get a tonne of Bitcoin donations. And Dogecoins as well.  ;)

We have a celebrity in our midst.  I'm kicking my self over selling half my coins.  Really sucks if you didn't hold on to some at least.

one day at a time is the key to life
he wanted pizza that day and at that time the price was what he offered in BTC
simple things make people happy

:)

Is there any Bitcoin'er that haven't heard the pizza story? As others mentioned what he did was really important to Bitcoin in terms of PR. If it's true that lazslo really is left with nothing, then I vote for making a casual bitcoin collection to give back a little for what he's done.

If marketing ever meant a huge deal for the adoption of Bitcoin (no doubt about that),  surely the pizza story is competing for the 1st prize.

Just my 2000 bitcoins.

Woah. Did laszlo just fucking return from the ether.  :o
You're a legend. An inspiration. I thought you'd be gone forever!

send me 2000 of your bitcoins plz

Now the juicy part: He developed a GPU miner as (one of) the first. Having a hundredfold advantage over everyone else, and over the difficulty. He didn't mine the heck out of it, he made it open source, available for everybody!



+1000!

Ente

Today people are laughing about the trade and how you could be a millionaire if you would have just held the BTC.

The point is: without the people that spended the money, BTC wouldn´t have established as payment system and the price would probably be less than in "the old times"

I really think you should do the AMA on reddit, laszlo. Not to earn money (although that would happen) - I think there are more people who would like to interview you.

Oh...and yes, please open a Pizza place ;)

First thing i'll say is you acquire a " Celebrity Status " in this forum.
No one is saying you stupid, Even if i was on your place @ that point of time , i wouldn't have cared that much about bitcoins, because i njoy pizza too.  if bitcoin  goes up again and touches the mark many expecting it to touch  i hope you won't get pissed off on yourself, but in the history of bitcoins your name will be there forever. Just wanna ask is there is anyone yet who interviewed you.. ?
 

Nice to see you're back laszlo! You're a true pioneer making that first or second bitcoin deal (I think I read somewhere that sirius did actually the first one). Anyways, it was a necessary step that sparked all this movement... Hope to see you here more frequently!

Cheers

Apparently you don't receive that many donations on your adress 157fRrqAKrDyGHr1Bx3yDxeMv8Rh45aUet : 3 in 2013 and 3 in 2014, you should receive more

Thanks for coming back and sharing your thoughts, this is an amazing story

From this 2010 post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=564.0 : "I have only 600 bitcoins, virtually all generated last week.  I missed the bus"

Hi Laszlo

I first learned of bitcoin in March 2013 and it has changed my life.  The pizza deal has become legendary and it was a turning point in bitcoin history.  Thanks for doing it.  I would like to order you some pizza as a 'thank you' for helping make the bitcoin idea a reality.

No bitcoins required :)

Chris

Welcome back Bitcoin Hall of Famer! I hope we can see you more around here. Opening a pizzeria is a good idea you should consider. It could be a meeting place for Bitcoiners. :)

Without things like this, bitcoins would still be worthless...trade = spreading coins to more users; the broader the user base, the more valuable bitcoins become.

Thank you for pioneering Laszlo! And for protecting our nascent network so that it had a chance to grow up!

Your story, laszlo, was one of the first I heard about Bitcoin. I still tell people about it. It just blows their minds.

It seems like laszlo is same laszlo that made very good custom os for htc :)

So you even relased first GPU miner...dude you should get hellalot tips!

I think that laszlo should get free pizza once per week for lifetime either from a pizzeria as a promotion or from wealthy bitcoiners (me not included, i sold it all in 2011 :)

If we find a reliable and trustworthy mechanism for this - I'm in!

Ente

OMG!! The legendary pizza buyer is back!!!  ;D

welcome back Laszlo. ;D

welcome back Lazslo - good to see you on the forum. Maybe we should start a fund to give you back some of your pizza BTC ;)

Welcome back Lazslo!


a hat tip to you sir.

I'd gladly drop mBTC100 into that, provided I'm certain many others are equally willing to contribute!

Good idea, I'm all up for supporting this. :)


Maybe we could approach the Papa John's where it was ordered from and make the deal of "free pizza for life" with them? That should be some pretty good PR for them (even if the transaction was actually in fiat).

The pizzeria that sold the first Bitcoin pizza ever!


It would probably at least attract people locally who are into Bitcoin...

What would be also really interesting if have a message from the person that bought the pizza, know what he was thinking about bitcoin, the trade and the price upward potential.

10,000 bitcoins could have been exchanged against 41$ at the time apparently

Original thread :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0

Jercos bought the pizza for laszio

Is that really you , that guy is billion now  ;D

Wow, laszlo is back.

I bought my first coin in March 2013 and I was extremely lucky and successful trader. Even if you could easily say that you don't have BTC anymore to keep low profile, I don't care, it would be shame that I have more BTC than you do despite you contributing much more to thing that looks like my life changer.

1 BTC sent your way you Bitcoin legend  ;D

You sure he still has access to that wallet address?

I've sent to wallet from his signature. I hope he has access to that one and he'll use it to go out on pizza with his family  ;D

You can always do the faucet and forget about the pizza  ;D

I reckon he might have had enough of spending bitcoins on pizza lol.

posting in epic thread

an urban legend speaks

I get depressed about the 6btc I spent on a 12 pack of beer, can't imagine how OP feels

I bought two Galaxy Megas for 1.1 BTC recently. I hope I'm going to be angry on myself for doing it sometime in near future :D

I hope so too, less that would just be adding insult to injury haha.

Welcome back Lazlo!
you are a living legend and a pioneer to the most of us here!

i agree that without you and others making those first bitcoin transactions we wouldn't be here now talking about it!
Well Done!

You are a legend among Bitcoin with that massive transactions for 2 pizza's.

Good luck getting anything bitcoin-related on the iPhone, Apple are notoriously against it. They recently removed the Blockchain app from the appstore with no reason.

history comprehension fail, that post is from 2010...lol

Wow.

I have to say that, from one small hobbyist miner to the pioneer of GPU mining: You, sir, are my hero, (well, right up there with Satoshi anyways)

If bitcoin succeeds, I predict there will be a statue of you built someday.

an answer to your *kind-of* ethical question.

I was mining back then too, (not quite as far back) I haven't stopped mining since, and I don't expect I ever will.

This is such an incredibly good idea. Just make sure it's pizza and beer :D -- family style during the day, more pub style later on??

 I am still trying to get my head around the whole "decentralized autonomous whatever" thing, but this thread so far makes me wonder if I'm not witnessing the first crowd-sourced launch of what could be the first attempt at one?

If so, I'm in.

Wow thanks, I do still have access to it.  You should never delete a wallet, even if you've spent what was 'in' it.
I appreciate the donations, but nobody owes me anything.. I generated my share and I spent it, it was just at a time when the value was lower, but so was the generation difficulty, and the block reward was 50.

Laszlo

Are you hungry?

I'm running a special on pizzas.

I will sell you two pizzas at 1/10th the price of whatever price you paid for your last pizza order purchased with bitcoin.

;D shoot me a PM if you are interested!


anyway, once again congrats for being a Bitcoin folk hero, and I hope and trust that you are still sitting on at least a few coins... ;)

LEGEND :D
Remember reading this (http://www.businessinsider.com/2-million-bitcoin-pizza-2013-4) before I even knew what the hell was going on around here.
http://www.businessinsider.com/2-million-bitcoin-pizza-2013-4

Have a CasinoCoin Address? I would be more then happy to send over a few thousand.
Cheers and welcome back!

Welcome back Laszlo!


We are having a "Laszlo Pizza Party" at my local meetup, the 22th of may :D

4.5millions now, the pizza was bought by jercos; I wonder how much btc he has now, probably a lot : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.new#new

makes no sense,Let him go.

That's awesome  8)

Like to think I would have given some away during that time too.

Then created a few millionaires just for being sound.

I think pizza always appreciates. @Laszlo your pizza sorry was the first story I read about bitcoins and my first knowledge of cryptocurrencies, your a legend.

The pizza was one of the first times I really took notice of bitcoin. It really was a historic milestone for bitcoin.

I don't remember if I had heard of the white paper before hearing of the pizza, but the pizza is the news bite that really sticks out in my mind.

The pizzia story is epic.

It really puts into perspective the power of bitcoin.

You can ignore the fact as to how expensive the pizza was, but remember the fact as to how quickly funds were able to be transferred across the atlantic for a specific product.

wouldn't u be a hero member by now?

doesnt have to be, as bitcoin was not so much "a thing" back then, and alot of people went in and out on bitcoin.
but that pizza story truly is epic and shows how much patience sometimes pays off.
personaly i woudnt want to be that guy, but then again , we may also be the funny guys in history, selling for under 1k; one never knows
cheers

IIRC the guy who bought pizza for 10k coins said in his OP (or maybe in the thread where he made his offer) that he had mining hardware that could easily generate 10k+ coins per month and he actually did it a couple of times. Assuming he did not completely cash out, he likely has a good amount of coins in his possession. It may not be millions of dollars worth, but certainly a good amount by most people's standards.

I would pay 10000 BTC (if i had them) TODAY for this pizza!!! It looks so delicious  :)


LASZLO is a F*CKING legend in Bitcoin history. It is for people like him that bitcoin became so huge. Thank you mate

10k bitcoins 31m for pizza :(
WHYYYYYYYY!!!

Don't know if you're still coming here, just thought I'd let you know i was explaining bitcoin pizza day to someone who has no idea about bitcoin the other day, in other words.... you are as much a part of the bitcoin story as, dare I say it, Satoshi. Thanks for giving BTC a value.

But bitcoin so far was 3200$ almost, its too far in reality to 100K$ before it happens I think it will take decades before it reach that amount.
I guess there's a miracle happen were bitcoin becomes 100,000$ so that many of the bitcoin enthusiast instantly become a millionaires for sures.

this post was on 2010, this show that how people in the past tackled about the price of coin but it is not only 100$ we want it to 100000$ and wait the time for it.

Bitcoin is now $4000+. We all agree with this point that the prices are going to boost up in future but what will be the highest price that Bitcoins will be able to touch, is something that I think is unknown to everyone at the moment. Let’s wait and watch. I do not want to give the wrong idea but bitcoin holders will be the rich people of future also.

From here on out the "price" of bitcoin as measured in central banker confetti is kind of meaningless. 

They can create ANY amount of fiat currency.

Bitcoin is not exactly $4000 at the moment but it is predicted it will reach this amount by the end of this year. Do correct me if I am wrong! I will highly appreciate it. I agree with this point that no person can predict the highest target it is going to achieve. Also, you are not pushing false ideas into anyone about the new generation of rich people. We all are aware of this fact already.

4210 USD today :-)

Ente

I ended up getting 2 AMD Radeon 5970s with the bitcoins I was exploiting, but at the time, the OpenCL libraries from AMD and nvidia were all really buggy and I could never work properly with Many GPUs. I also did work at the time and so I never finished it. I ended up leaving only a bitcoin on the record drive for a few years, then it exploded and people started asking me about the merchandise trades. I am a Bitcoin millionaire, I can tell everyone the same thing, to make myself a little interesting hacking target

Wealth is not everything at the end of the day. Becoming Muslim is the best thing which can happen to a person.
I wish you happiness and contentment in life.
---> Wishes of a king never come true however the basic needs of a common person can be fulfilled easily.

Yes, I think that Laszlo will receive donations on that wallet for the rest of the life of Bitcoin, just like people do donations in the memory of the saints. Don't get me wrong: Laszlo has absolutely no merits. Nor guilt for having spent all his Bitcoins when they had no value. Merit and guilt are all just in our imagination. But Laszlo happened to be the focus of one of the first narratives in Bitcoin's history, and this made him an archetype, a mythological character everybody in the community will keep talking about generation after generation.
Not too bad anyway - huh?

Do not forget that he contributed to the project in other tangible ways.

The guy did write the first ever GPU miner ffs.

If it were not for the pizzas, the faucets, and all the alpaca socks there is no way in hell we would be where we are today.

If only more people here from your time were as humble with their opinion as you are lol About that pizza thing.. have you still got the number of the guy you paid those 10k coins to?? lol


We would be. perhaps a bit more late and maybe would have thanked another Laszlo.


Bruh! that's deep, are you from Tibet or something?

 I am a new bitcoin user and I am starting to generate some of my own coins. And I mean people can say I am stupid, but it was great deal at the time.

Laszlo, you're a legend in the Coinosphere and today just confirmed it (https://cointelegraph.com/news/original-pizza-day-purchaser-does-it-again-with-bitcoin-lightning-network) ;)

So you are the crazy guy. By the way, are you having some change in your pockets? Meaning, a few millions? If you heard of Bitcoin of that long, you should still be doing great with money now. :P

actually, he is at it again...on lightning network this time

this guy sure likes his expensive pizzas  ;D

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/lightning-dev/2018-February/001044.html

As soon as Bitcoin appeared, very many were able to earn on time to buy it for a smaller amount.

Wow Man, Reading through the posts by Laszlo and seeing him tackle all this attention so humbly is such a great experience. What a legend..!!

Lots of Respect and good wishes to you and your family..

May you stay forever young.. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Frj2CLGldC4)

Are you still alive, Sir? I want to meet you and shake hand with you. I guess what are you feeling now after knew about bitcoin price. Do you still have a little bit of bitcoin? Maybe you forget you still have some in your other wallet?
When you make this post I knew nothing about bitcoin. But if I were you, I will save some bitcoin in another wallet like if I have money I will save some in my slight wallet  ;D

I really think you should do the AMA on reddit, laszlo. Not to earn money (although that would happen) - I think there are more people who would like to interview you.

I was learning OpenCL programming and mining bitcoins with a video card so the pizza was a good deal for me.  I couldn't have known that my pizza trade would end up being such a big deal, or that so many others would become interested in bitcoin and thus drive the value up

great concept and can produce Bitcoin coffers with the platform you create.

if you are consistent with your statement like that, then I am sure you will be a competitor of bounty.portals.com, bountyhive and also bountyplatform. these three flatporms are very popular in this forum.

That was indeed something. This is a very interesting story for me. Going back, reading this legendary threads just fills my imagination. What if I was jercos. Who is jercos? What would I do for that kind of money, etc. this is indeed a legendary milestone in the history of bitcoin.

Btw, this is not the very first transaction using btc. this is the publicly known transaction but not the very first. the very first happened in the dark web.

A few people were trading them for less than a cent each, but nothing serious.  You can probably find all the old posts on this forum still.  I was learning OpenCL programming and mining bitcoins with a video card so the pizza was a good deal for me.  I couldn't have known that my pizza trade would end up being such a big deal, or that so many others would become interested in bitcoin and thus drive the value up.

Wow, i just knew your story just today buddy. I am glad to hear the story about you and that pizza thing. You are one of the many reasons why bitcoin is so popular today. Salute to you legend.

It's awesome to see all these legendary posts from way back when. I've seen many of them satoshi, vitalik, charles, and so on.

Guess you might have gotten enough Bitcoin now, I'll send you my bitcoin address for some. lolz

So legends are showing up now to prove that the system is really good and healthy. First i saw posting on this thread is the owner of the system whom i know for his name Satoshi Nakamoto followed by one of the reason bitcoin has nowadays is Al Finney where he gave an update that he is working on a digital wallet and now we had this another legend. Well who could be the next in line?

For beginners it's always important to know the real information. But it's hard to find relevant information, so you should look for friends and communicate with them about it. People are different and may not provide valid information.

Hello, I Come from the future

I feel very happy when people start talking about old issues and throwing btc together

Hello,

I am contacting you from Fulwell73, an Emmy award winning production company.

We are making a documentary about the emergence of blockchain technology and the evolving conversation between regulators, traders and evangelists.

We are interested in using the famous photo of the pizzas you ordered for 10,000 as it was an important moment in the history of bitcoin. Would you be willing to let us use them?

If you could please get back to me as soon as possible by dm.

Many thanks,
Simon

people are laughing about the trade and how you could be a millionaire if you would have just held the BTC.

I think there are more people who would like to interview you.
