Although such an amount of BTC is purely colossal today,the context of the time is very different.Thus, Bitcoin is traded at this period around $0.003 and $0.004.The value of these BTC is therefore around $40, which is close to the price of two large pizzas.It has now been 3 days since Laszlo published his offer and no one has yet responded positively.To update his publication,he therefore posts on May21,2020 a new message that might seem ridiculous to us today:
"So no one wants to buy me pizza?Is the amount of bitcoin I propose too low?”
The next day,May 22,2010,he finally posted a message to thank a British user named Jeremy "jercos".In this one, he thanks him for responding to his request and ordering two pizzas forhim at Papa John's restaurant in Jacksonville,Florida,where Laszlo lives.

A look back at the history of this historic transaction

It all began on May 18, 2010 when a developer known as Laszlo Hanyecz published on the famous Bitcointalk forum that he is willing to pay 10,000 bitcoins for someone to order him two pizzas:

"I will pay 10,000 bitcoins in exchange for a few pizzas... maybe two large pizzas, so I have some left for the next day. I like to have leftover pizza to snack on later. You can make the pizza yourself and bring it to my house or order it for me in a restaurant, but my goal is to have me deliver food in exchange for bitcoins [...] If you are interested, let me know and we can find an arrangement. ”
