Happy #Bitcoin Pizza Day!

On May 18, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz posted a thread on the Bitcoin Talk forum saying that he would pay 10,000 bitcoins to anyone that would order him 2 large pizzas or cook and deliver him 2 large pizzas.

Four days later, Jeremy Sturdivant decided to take him up on that offer. On May 22, 2010, Jeremy ordered Laszlo 2 large pizzas from Papa Johns and Laszlo sent Jeremy 10,000 bitcoins in return.

This wasn't the only time that Laszlo spent thousands of bitcoins buying pizza. Laszlo estimates that he spent 100,000 bitcoins on pizza in 2010.

How did Laszlo get all of those bitcoins? Well, Laszlo is also the man that invented GPU mining.

Laszlo is a legend, but we can't forget about Jeremy. He's equally important in this transaction.
