The guy who bought two pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoins, does he still hold any BTC?
Ten years ago, a developer named Laszlo Hanyecz made history by becoming the first person to use Bitcoin in a commercial transaction.
On May 22, 2010, when Bitcoin was just over a year old, he did something that will forever be etched on the wall of crypto history: He bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC.
At that time, 10,000 BTC was worth approximately $41——
The price of each BTC is now $70,000, so if you use today’s prices, those two pizzas are the most expensive pizza in the world, worth $700 million!
Those pizzas must be delicious, like $700 million. May 22nd is known as “Bitcoin Pizza Day” in the cryptocurrency community.
The question now is? Does he still hold any BTC?
As of now Laszlo Hanyecz has not publicly revealed whether he still holds any of the BTC that were part of the initial 10,000 BTC that he used to purchase those two pizzas.
Given Bitcoin's significant appreciation in value over the years, he likely still owns a lot of BTC. He should be a rich millionaire now, but if he loses the key to his wallet...
I personally think he still holds some BTC and more importantly most people have sold them at $1000 or even $100! At the time, everyone thought that was the pinnacle.
Those who succeed have either lost their keys or are out of touch, leaving their BTC unusable until the end of time...
However, whether he still holds Bitcoin or not, the story of Laszlo Hanyecz will remain a legend in our hearts forever. He used his actions to prove the value of Bitcoin and let us see the infinite possibilities of digital currency.
