Each year on May 22nd, the cryptocurrency community celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day, commemorating the first real-world Bitcoin transaction. In 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz famously bought two pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoins, now worth billions. Despite the hindsight value, Hanyecz's move showcased Bitcoin's potential. Since then, Bitcoin's use in commerce has expanded, making Bitcoin Pizza Day a symbol of its evolution from novelty to global financial force.
