Everybody remembers this guy.

He paid 10,000 $BTC for 2 large pizzas.

Now it's worth $600 million, but what about the guy?

Here's how his life has changed after this deal🧵👇

On the Bitcoin Talk forum, Laszlo Hanyecz reached out for help:

"I will pay 10,000 bitcoins for a couple of pizzas… like maybe 2 large ones."

2010 / 22 May / 07:17:26 PM

A British man took up Hanyecz’s offer and bought the two pizzas for him in exchange for 10,000 $BTC.

"I just want to report that I successfully traded 10,000 bitcoins for pizza. Thanks jercos!" - Laszlo wrote.

And the story began...

Since 2010, the crypto community has come together annually on May 22 to celebrate "Bitcoin Pizza Day".

It serves as a reminder of the humble beginnings of $BTC and the incredible journey it has undertaken.

But what about Laszlo Hanyecz?

Career.

Laszlo continues to work in the field of programming and technology.

Given his ability with Bitcoin mining and blockchain engineering, he must have received multiple job offers.

"I bought two pizzas for $700M..."

Laszlo does not regret his decision to spend 10,000 bitcoins on pizza.

He says at the time it was an experiment and a way to demonstrate that crypto can be used for real TXs.

And this purchase helped raise awareness of Bitcoin and contributed to its development.

The HODL mode

Laszlo continues to be an active member of the crypto community, and a $BTC holder (who knows).

Sometimes, he also shares his experience and views on the current situation in the world of crypto.

BTW, Hanyecz is still seen walking in Bitcoin conventions, events, presentations, and podcasts.
