Pizza Day Meets BTC New High｜GaiaEx Joins You to Commemorate the First Bite of Bitcoin

Today is suitable for: eating pizza!

Today marks the 15th anniversary of Bitcoin Pizza Day.

In 2009, Bitcoin was born. A year later, on May 22, 2010, American programmer Laszlo Hanyecz exchanged 10,000 bitcoins for two Papa John's pizzas. The transaction, valued at about $41, also became the first time in Bitcoin's history that it was used to pay for real-world goods.

Today, the value of these 10,000 Bitcoins is close to 1.1 billion dollars, and these two pizzas are also referred to as the "most expensive pizzas in history," which is not an exaggeration.

But the significance of Pizza Day goes far beyond "price".

It represents a tangible realization of decentralized faith and symbolizes the first pulse of Bitcoin as a new value system.

What's even more coincidental is that on this anniversary, Bitcoin once again refreshed its all-time high, a perfect timing coincidence, and the entire crypto community once again felt the tension of this narrative. From the "seemingly worthless" transaction more than ten years ago to the financial phenomenon that has attracted global attention today, BTC has embarked on a long-term path that belongs to every coin holder.

From "10,000 BTC for pizza" to "5.22 becoming Consensus Day", this is not only a sense of ritual in the cryptocurrency world, but also a cultural heritage created by generations of Builders and HODLers.

On this special day, many Web3 communities hold commemorative events and share stories of their holdings. It's not just nostalgia, it's affirmation, "We're still here."

As a new generation of digital asset trading platform, GaiaEx also encourages users to look back on their on-chain journey and post your story with Bitcoin at this node - in a relaxed way, paying tribute to the initial persistence.

So—today, why not order a pizza.

Commemorate the world-changing payment attempt and reconnect you to the crypto world.

Happy Pizza Day, BTC witnesses!
