Today marks the day of the most expensive pizza in history: how Laszlo Heinitz spent 10,000 bitcoins.
On May 22, 2010, Laszlo Heinitz from Florida bought two pizzas for 10,000 bitcoins, which at today’s exchange rate would be worth about $1.1 billion.
At that time, cryptocurrency was not so popular, so the programmer easily sent bitcoins to a user of the Bitcointalk forum.
After that, the user agreed to order him two pizzas. At the time, by the way, they cost him only $41.
Since then, May 22 is annually celebrated as Bitcoin Pizza Day. And to date, bitcoin for the first time rose in price to 110 thousand dollars.
So, according to the crypto exchange Binance, bitcoin on the night of May 22 crossed the mark of $110 thousand. Later, the main cryptocurrency was traded at $111.7 thousand.
As a result, this cryptocurrency has risen in price by more than 26% over the past month.
The bitcoin rate in early April fell below $75 thousand amid the fact that stock indices fell sharply due to the plans of US President Donald Trump to introduce large-scale trade duties.
After the introduction of duties was suspended, the cryptocurrency rate began to grow.
