Does anyone know how the little boy who bought the pizza is doing?It is too late to repent in retrospect，Hold the COINS in your hand！

Yeah 22 of may have been mark as the piza day and I believe the little boy is doing great am going to show my support for the project I believe in in the city gate show in my local area. All thanks to santoshi Nakamoto.

Haha, that's a funny story. There must be hundreds of people made similar things and didn't realize the potential of their cryptos, not only btc. Look at Ethereum or Ripple at their beginning. That was a cheap-cheap coins, and look where they are now. Amazing!

Yes we all do remember him a guy who spent 10,000 bitcoins for a papa johns pizza.His interview spread the internet yesterday saying he spent almost  100,000 bitcoin for pizza.He said that his previous perchase was worthy and he enjoyed it now he is still working with bitcoin and surely made a god fortune uot of it

It's not a funny story, it's a sign that the boy is doing the best thing in his life starting with him who bought pizza with BTC then fame for BTC and pizza began to emerge. Basically the boy did the best thing he ever had without him BTC was not famous, I really appreciate him well He contributed to spreading BTC from the purchase of the pizza.

yes, thats right
without the boy who bought pizza with bitcoin, maybe until now all of us don't know about cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin
first transactions in real life is very important on bitcoin history and after that the history continues  ;)

Yes you are right it's too late to repend in the retrospect but there is a chance. Invest now and be a KING in the future! Just and invest and hold. Take the risk because even the successful business man and richest man in the take the a big risk before sitting in the golden seat. Make sense you need to do something.

yes of course that is a very good history for crypto currencies. the boy had opened the eyes of many people and was able to make him aware. now put your positive thoughts and success are yours.

One of the best history to have happen to crypto space and bitcoin where every one that come across bitcoin will learn about .

He actually create awareness for that movement and now thinking otherwise for his action , but all same am sure he will be good too as he can never be forgotten in the crypto space.

At least he got his name and story penned down on the pages of crypto history. and Isn't it enough motivation for people out there to use Bitcoin for their day to day transactions like that little boy did, spending 10000BTC for two pizzas. 10000 BTC right now would be more than $78 million. Anyways, thank you for reminding the Bitcoin Pizza Day. Happy eating!

Yes its a landmark in the history of cryptocurrency as a whole because the boy opened up bitcoin to the entire world and since then it has become so popular in the world. The seller of 10k bitcoin for 2 pizza deverses some accolades.

Of course , I think anyone on crypto would know about him he is a legend and going to be in the history of crypto currency.
And I think he is doing great and for the record there are plenty of people who also done the samething in their crypto because no one knows that it would be this huge.
So we should just move on the guy doesn't even mind it at all they already made the interview.

As an early bitcoin adopter I think he is fine now. It looks a big amount to spend 10,000 btcs for a pair of pizzas, but think how many other bitcoins he may have in his wallet. https://hypebeast.com/2019/5/laszlo-hanyecz-10000-bitcoin-2-papa-johns-pizzas
The guy is happy for being part of bitcoin history and says he doesn't regret it! All the best for him.

Best story and history in cryptocurrency world. If he still hold btc he will become whales but all of us also have that kind of story sometimes make us in pain to remember. We just need keep in our mind, hold what you believe and dont give up.

Lol, it may have been so many years since that day. And i think it would be the biggest day of bitcoin while you can buy in bitcoin. But i don think it would accepted right now.

The most fun thing about this story is that it took place on Bitcointalk. To learn more about how it happened follow the link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0

I'm just wondering what the person who's done that bitcoin to a pizza is doing. Maybe we don't know if he has more than that bitcoin.

You are talking about laszlo, who bought 2 pizzas for 10,000 BTC back in 2010. He was helping Satoshi to secure the network and was rewarded by him. He is doing well today, and does not regret his bitcoin transaction. Today that transaction would be worth about $80 million.

I think that Laszlo Hanyecz is doing fine and in an interview he expressed no regret for that very popular pizza transaction years ago on May 22, 2010 that cost him 10,000 Bitcoin which could have been millions right now. It is already part of history and his name will forever be immortalized not just in this forum but in all the media covering cryptocurrency and every year his name is always remembered. The guy continues to believe on Bitcoin and what the coin can do for the global financial system.

I watched some video that interviews him and he seem to do good.
He has a forum account if you don't know.

A million dollars worth of bitcoin is in your hand, but you spent it for pizza, damn.. well at least he enjoyed eating pizza ;D Happy bitcoin pizza day!.

Yeah, but that guy has no idea that Bitcoin will be this expensive. Imagine if that guy canceled his order for the pizza, he absolutely could have pizza factory today. But, what if he actually had more Bitcoin than we knew? He should not worry about his past, probably he's rich right now. Who knows  ;D

It is indeed a memorable day in the history of bitcoin. That event serve as a game changer in the history of bitcoin. The event made bitcoin to be more popular and a lot of people buy into the idea afterwards.

I think he is doing well, because he said he has bought pizza for more than 100k Bitcoins in total and I believe if he had so much Bitcoins this hundred thousand was not the last one on his wallet. I am more than sure he is doing well.

As far as I know, this guy is still in the crypto. and I think that those people who are now selling a crypto will also look ridiculous in 5-10 years

The guy wish is to reverse the time and change his decision exchanging #1 digital asset for ordinary pizza, unfortunately time can't be reversed.

Today is mark as the day when Bitcoin can be truly useful in real life. I know it not very "sexy", but the man who bought pizza is the stepping stone of Bitcoin. I once heard that on that day transaction could take hours, because the network is not really strong but today that transaction could done in a minutes.

This is historical day in Bitcoin and crypto history when In 2010, Hanyecz bought two Papa John's pizzas for 10,000 BTC. At the time, one Bitcoin wasn't even worth a penny.

May 22 will serve as an unforgettable day to each and every user who have known about cryptocurrency as well using it in some way. It all happened because none expected such a massive growth with bitcoin in such a short time period of around ten years time. As he didn't find anything possible with those bitcoins he came forward spending on a pizza where he got an opportunity to spend which now has made it the expensive pizza till date.

Everyday, the guy who used his 10k BTC to buy those pizzas will keep reminiscing and regretting the act, but nothing can be done about it. I saw the supposed transaction hash today in an article and I shook my head, had he known BTC is a rare gem.

I don't think that person is still a boy but rather a man and I am very sure that everyday of his life will end up in regret of why he had to use his bitcoin then to buy pizza that is now worth millions of dollars, and I don't think he can ever forget that even if he wanted too since we all have set aside a date to celebrate pizza day in the crypto community, well it is just a lesson to all of us to learn how to have patient when we see a new technology emerge because we don't know what the future holds for the technology.

I live in a city with 100 000 people and there is no restaurant / pizza restaurant where Bitcoin is accepted. It is a good sign that still crypto is not used by masses.

every year always commemorates the pizza day, i hear this story when crypto do payment for the first time in history.
and the amount was little at that time,but for now imagine 10k btc can buy what, that will be the most expensive pizza in the world,
and im wondering is this boy regret it, but we cant judge him, because nobody know bitcoin will grow up like now.

You really dont have any idea about the history of this pizza  :D

Im just shocked that a senior member like you dont know about this.

Hold coin when its price down and sell coin when its price up or higher than you bought. I never thought the pizza case will repeat again in the future. Because this situation seems like there is a manipulation to make it happened so as we can realize that bitcoin is very worth to be made as investment place. Also this case will make some users of bitcoin will doubt to use their bitcoin as payment system because he only use this case as a benchmark.

NO it's not worth millions of dollar way back then.
The price of bitcoin by that time isn't even high and if its not for that pizza transaction.
People will not urge to try other transactions because it was proven that bitcoin can be use to exchange for goods by that time.

yes, in that time bitcoin price was very cheap, and many people still don't know about bitcoin including me
he is a legend in crypto world now
because now a lot of people try to collecting bitcoin ;)

we must be grateful, if no child buys pizza using bitcoin, maybe we won't know bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. the first transaction he made was meaningful until now.

But in the future cryptos will use by most restaurant and other business but not cryptocurrency are still in developing stage but look what the potential that will gives to all of us.

Happy Bitcoin Pizza a legend story in cryptoworld this is unforgettable moment when a boy buy pizza by using Bitcoin now the price of 1btc is huge compare when the Boy buy a pizza.

It is a good story of how Bitcoin were used to pay for two pizzas. Back then, the market value of Bitcoin was even less than a dollar and as much as 10,000 Bitcoins (correct me if I am wrong) were paid for two Pizzas. That was probably the first time Bitcoin was accepted as a mode of payment and yeah, had that boy held his Bitcoin so far, he would have been a millionaire.

I still can't believe this really happened. But it was already obvious that crypto would go into our lives.

I'm not going to blame the boy at least he his a famous guy now and the truth is no one saw it coming that bitcoin can ever see this kind of growth so why blame him

I just saw the video about the classic story man who buy pizza using bitcoin, you can check it here: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-man-who-spent-millions-worth-of-bitcoin-on-pizza-60-minutes-2019-05-16/. I'm a bit bored though, this bitcoin story always pop out every year lol.

Maybe this will be a historic day for them, and even many exchanges hold gift events for reminders on this May 22nd.

That little boy is now part of the history books, when he dies his name will live on. For some it is a price worth paying, i'd prefer the bitcoin ofc but whatever

I think pizza day is just a symbol, I am sure there has been plenty of stuff happened much more worse, I remember reading somewhere someone spending 15k bitcoin just to prove a point and that money is now gone, like a technical thing that doesn't exists now but that dude sent 15k just to show that it was possible to abuse blockchain, I don't know if he managed it or not but that money is no more that is what I remember. Still 10 thousand bitcoins for a pizza is still one of the funniest things in the world, right now that pizza costs about 80 MILLION dollars :D.

I am sure it was the tastiest pizza in the world and the weird thing is, we all have eaten pizza but I doubt we remember when we ate it, we may remember eating it but at least not the date, this dude has eaten a pizza that thousands of people remember the exact date of :D.

Bitcoin pizza day has lots of exchange launched ads for this. I joined campaign to send 1 KCS = 1 BTC of Kucoin, but unfortunately I am not that lucky.

I joined this promotion too but I am out of luck, unfortunately. Kucoin is second to none in terms of spreading the important news related to crypto industry. I can feel the pain of the guy who bought a pizza for 10000 BTC.

This is all in the past.  We need to live today and next day.  What was yesterday is not so important.  I believe that Bitcoin will always be in trend.

We celebrate it with buying pizza with our Bitcoins but from this day we learned that it isn´t good to buy a pizza with Bitcoins because there is a possibility of big growth in the future and you can loose your potentional profit by buying worthless thing - pizza  :D.

Not everyone can be born with a golden spoon in his mouth, sometimes with a simple action you can change the course of history! Who among you can pay 10000 BTC now for pizza even if it is golden?
We have become very pragmatic)

Here there is a theme about this man. I read his reviews and he says he doesn't regret it. But I think he's lying) If you are interested then write in the search - PIZZA 10000 btc. There are a lot of photos with this purchase. He's doing well at the moment. He has two children and a beautiful wife. And the most important is that this man thanks to his crazy act has become a living monument)
