Today is bitcoin pizza day

[ricardobs]

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.

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

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 .

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 .

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  .

[Mila52]

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.

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)
