Celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day at Punt With an Extra-Large Slice of Happiness

Love playing casino games? Good. Love winning big? Great. Love eating pizza? Who doesn’t! Then happy Bitcoin Pizza Day from Punt Casino.

If you’re asking yourself: What the heck is Bitcoin Pizza Day? Then wipe away the shame and get ready to stuff your face with some Bitcoin Pizza Day fun at your favorite Bitcoin, and pizza-friendly casino (wink!)

What is Bitcoin Pizza Day?

It all started with a craving – a rumbling tummy and a salivating palate eager to be satisfied by the blissful taste of a slice from heaven – pizza! And so began what has now become the remarkable story of Bitcoin Pizza Day.

Enter Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer and early Bitcoin miner hailing from Florida, USA. On May 18, 2010, Laszlo posted on the popular forum Bitcointalk.org that he was looking to purchase 2 pizzas, and willing to pay 10,000 BTC to anyone who can provide. 

But it wasn’t Toby Maguire that came to rescue, oh no. It was a 19-year-old Bitcoin enthusiast by the name of Jeremy Sturdivant. On May 22, Jeremy replied to Laszlo’s post and delivered 2 tasty pizzas fresh from Papa John’s to complete the first physical Bitcoin transaction in history.

Now, every year on May 22, the crypto community comes together to celebrate this historic event, and pay tribute to Laszlo’s historic purchase, and of course, his appetite for pizza. 

Laszlo has even appeared on a few tv shows and live interviews since, telling the story of how Bitcoin Pizza Day came to be.

Back then, Bitcoin wasn’t really worth much. Another user on the forum had mentioned to Laszlo that he could get around $41 for his 10,000 BTC on a certain exchange. 

Can you imagine what this transaction would have been worth today? And if Laszlo had kept his BTC and sold it at the all-time-high price of around $68,990, his 2 Papa John’s pizzas would have been worth almost $690,000,000 – insane!
