10,000 BTC to Buy 2 Pizzas! How Would You Spend It If You Had Bitcoins?
If you had 10,000 BTC today, what would you do with it?
The first recorded Bitcoin transaction took place on May 22, 2010, when a programmer named Laszlo paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas. At the time, 10,000 BTC was worth about $30. Today, those two pizzas would be worth over $100 billion.
Laszlo posted on the Bitcoin forum offering the coins for two large pizzas, specifying his preferences. Four days later, he successfully completed the purchase and shared a photo of his pizza, expressing his excitement.
What happened to those who spent Bitcoin in the early days?
Laszlo, a programmer from Florida, started mining and created software to mine with graphics cards at a early time. Mining Bitcoin was easy at the time, and he quickly accumulated a lot.
He said he was happy during that time, as he could get free pizza by using his graphics card. Laszlo claims he has no regrets and even continued spending his BTC on various purchases, including around 100,000 BTC.
The seller of the pizzas was Jeremy Sturdivant, a 19-year-old from California who had mined some BTC himself. He later spent the 10,000 BTC on a trip with his girlfriend.
I’ve also heard a friend say that ten years ago, he spent their Bitcoin to buy an $Hermes International SA(HESAF)$ bag for girlfriend.

他說那段時間他很開心，因爲他可以得到用他的顯卡免費吃披薩。拉茲洛聲稱他不後悔，甚至繼續將他的BTC花在各種購買上，包括大約10萬BTC。
披薩的賣家是傑里米·斯特迪萬特(Jeremy Sturdivant)，他是一名來自加州的19歲少年，自己開採了一些比特幣。他後來花了10,000 BTC和他的女朋友去旅行。
Looking at those who spent Bitcoin early, like Laszlo for pizzas, it’s clear holding onto a significant amount was a wise financial move. If I used part of my Bitcoin now, I’d buy a property for my family to ensure stability and no longer rely on renting.
As I get older, I’d likely shift more into stable investments like gold, as crypto can be more volatile to manage. Though I wasn’t an early adopter, joining a few years ago has still been profitable. I may not have entered early, but I appreciate the growth since.
