How Much More Bitcoin Did He Have Left?
| |
Back on May 22, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz (Pizza Meme Guy) made waves by trading 10,000 Bitcoins for two Papa John’s pizzas. At the time, those Bitcoins were worth like $41, but today, they’d be approximately $ 1B! 👀 Folks think Laszlo blew it spending that much on pizza, while others reckon he’s a legend for believing in Bitcoin when it was just this weird new thing. Laszlo’s pizza buy was the first time anyone used Bitcoin to snag something real-world. It put Bitcoin on the map, got people talking, and probably helped kick off its rise to what it is now. Every year, the crypto crowd throws a little party for Bitcoin Pizza Day to give a nod to this moment and the early believers who took a chance on it. My curiosity is how much did he own then? How much did it cost him to own that? How much did he HODL after buying pizza? And how much more did he sell? Anyways… what’s your take guys ? Was Laszlo a genius who helped make Bitcoin legit, or just a guy craving a slice? submitted by /u/Green_Candler |
