That's how it all began....
Laszlo Hanyecz
Programmer (First buyer of an asset with BTC)

Year 2010

As a reference for his documentaries, Young Laszlo had previously made contributions to the source code of Bitcoin, and it was on May 22, 2010 that one of the most peculiar transactions in history took place, this young man paid a colleague who shared a forum with him on the web, 10,000 BTC for two pizzas of Papa John's.

Bitcoin

At that time Bitcoin was taking its first steps, at that time the exchange rate to the amount paid was an estimated $30, but at the current exchange rate it is a lot of money. Just imagine for a moment at this point each BTC ranges from $8000 to $9000, draw your own conclusions, Actually all Hanyecz wanted was to promote Bitcoin as a payment alternative.

I'm willing to pay 10,000 bitcoins for a couple of pizzas. Maybe two grand so we can have leftovers for the next day. I like to have pizza leftovers for later snacks. You can make the pizza yourself and bring it to my house or order it for me from a delivery. What I'm really looking for is to get take-out food in exchange for bitcoins where I don't have to order or make it myself, something like ordering a'breakfast' in a hotel, they bring you something to eat and you're happy!" "I like onions, peppers, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages, etc. simply as standard ingredients, no thick fish trimmings or anything like that. I also like regular cheese pizzas, which can be cheaper to prepare or purchase in another way. "If you're interested, let me know and we can work something out."

3 Months later...

Bitcoin has experienced an upswing, eight years have passed and $9 billion for two pizzas is "big business" for sure. Although Laszlo does not seem to regret anything, given that in a recent interview with the New York Times, he said: "It's not like bitcoins were worth much at the time.

PD: Worldwide, there are more than 90,000 merchants that accept critcurrencies and just for the record, #coinmap.org points out that more than 100 stores in the U.S. accept bitcoins to pay for pizzas and there are many chains and pizzerias that offer discounts on this day to those customers who pay with bitcoin, in fact in our country Venezuela At Carabobo Valencia, Los Aviadores, the 470 stores accept Bitcoin today, and their purpose is to promote it throughout the country.
