Bitcoin Pizza Day marks the first real-world Bitcoin transaction, when 10,000 BTC bought two pizzas and kicked off a new era of money.
This year marks 15 years since that historic moment. Blockstream is proud to sponsor the 2025 celebration at nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3uamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwp6kytnhv4kxcmmjv3jhytnwv46z7qpqkey55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqs99vkl NYC on May 22, honoring Laszlo Hanyecz and launching the Bitcoin Hall of Fame.
Our flagship Bitcoin and nostr:nprofile1qqsfjzteswm5cuyqpvvz40r0vszx4dcyql5u40xkeats5w9d48hht4guz0cnd hardware wallet Jade Plus will be at PubKey free for ticket holders. We’ll also announce a major initiative to bring open-source, hands-on Bitcoin hardware wallet education to communities around the world, free and accessible to all.
The day starts with a 10,000 sats pizza lunch—two slices and a drink from NYC’s most legendary pizzerias.
Then at 5PM, the real party begins: surprise guests, Bitcoin’s biggest names, and a Jade Plus wallet for every ticketed guest!
Pizza Day has grown to be about more than a transaction, it’s a tribute to builders, believers, and Bitcoin’s open-source roots.
