    Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day!
    "
    Today, May 22, marks the eighth annual Bitcoin Pizza Day, commemorating an important milestone in the journey to mainstream bitcoin adoption.

    On this day in 2010, Florida-based programmer and early cryptocurrency enthusiast Laszlo Hanyecz enshrined his name in bitcoin lore by paying someone 10,000 bitcoins to order him two pizzas from his local Papa John’s restaurant. The purchase is believed to have been the first time that bitcoin was used in a real-world transaction. Today, those coins are worth nearly $82 million."

    I get a little sick to my stomach every time i hear this story. Im just glad im not the pizza guy, otherwise the story would end "he offed himself late in 2017 when bitcoin was worth $20,000"
