Here is a timeline of some of the funniest Bitcoin events:

In 2010: Laszlo Hanyecz pays 10,000 Bitcoin for two Papa John's pizzas. This purchase is now known as the "Bitcoin Pizza Day" and is celebrated by Bitcoin enthusiasts every year on May 22nd.

In 2011, Starcraft 2 clan aov hosted a tournament and the prizes were paid out in Bitcoin. The 5th through 8th place winners each received 25 Bitcoin, which at the time was worth only about a dollar each. However, if those players had held onto their Bitcoin, they would each be worth almost a million dollars today.

In 2013: Mt. Gox, the largest Bitcoin exchange at the time, is hacked and 744,408 Bitcoin are stolen. This hack is still one of the largest cryptocurrency thefts in history.

In 2013, James Howell in Wales accidentally threw away an old hard drive that contained the private keys to 7,500 Bitcoin. At the time, those Bitcoin were worth about $7.5 million. Howell has been trying to find the hard drive ever since, but he has not been successful.

In 2013: A user 'GameKyuubi' submitted a post titled "I AM HODLING," arguing in favor of holding his bitcoins during a crash. Now we use Hodling instead of Holding. đŸ€Ł

In 2017: Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin. However, Wright has never been able to provide convincing evidence to support his claim.

In 2019, a Bitcoin whale named Stefan Thomas tweeted that he had lost the password to his wallet containing over 7,000 Bitcoin. This would be worth over $300 million today. Thomas has been trying to crack his password ever since, but he has not been successful.

2020: John McAfee tweets that Bitcoin will reach $1 million by 2020, and that he will "eat his own d***" if he is wrong. Bitcoin does not reach $1 million by 2020, but McAfee has not yet eaten his d*** (to the public's knowledge) as he is no more.

I hope you enjoyed this timeline of funny Bitcoin events!
