Highlights
Bitcoin Pizza Day is a historic event, remembering the first-ever commercial transaction of BTC. Every year, crypto enthusiasts celebrate this day as a festival and recall programmer Laszlo Hanyecz for his contribution to revealing how Bitcoin is much more than internet money. Interestingly, the day gets more special as, along with accomplishments, people joke about the fact that Hanyecz spent 10,000 BTC on two pizzas.
The fact that the price was so low back then makes people wish to revisit the time and buy a bunch, as the Bitcoin price hit a new ATH today at $111.8k. So, the two pizzas cost 10,000 BTC ($41), but the same 10,000 BTC are worth $1.1 billion today, per CoinMarketCap.
Today, May 22, 2025, marks the 15th Bitcoin Pizza Day anniversary, so let’s discuss the funniest memes of all time, based on these. Starting with the pun alone on the official picture of Laszlo Hanyecz with his 10,000 BTC. The meme hints at how this picture is normal to the people who have no idea about BTC pizza day, but a shocking picture for those who know.
Another shared, “Pizza can’t be expensive. Le: The Pizza, sharing the original image.
The second speaks of a dog looking at pizza in disbelief at how a single slice costs him 1250 BTC. The dog’s facial expression makes it one of the most used and a laughing meme.
Next meme is a snippet of the ‘The Whale Movie’ where the morbidly obese father and house-bound teacher says “I need to know that I’ve done one thing right with my life” while trying to restore his relationship with his teenage daughter, whom he abandoned.
Although the movie has nothing to do with the Bitcoin pizza day, the quote “I need to know that I’ve done one thing right with my life” connects with Laszlo Hanyecz.
Last but not least, there are talks of nostalgia and desire, where every investor wants to go back in time and buy BTC. The scene is from the movie “Back to the Future Part 2,” where the character says ‘We have to go back, Marty. ’
In the last 15 years, so much has happened, and Bitcoin has become the 5th biggest asset in the world. Many more milestones are anticipated for this number 1 crypto, but the future remains uncertain. Investors may do their proper research before jumping into any trade.
