Hey guys and girls,
I just want to give a shout out to the Pizza Guy. I've seen a lot of posts lately poking fun at him so I want to address just how important this man is to Bitcoin.
When Bitcoin started no one knew what it was capable of. It's hard to believe that people weren't even sure if it was worth ANYTHING. Keeping in mind people were speculating and at the time 10k BTC was trading for ~$41.
Pizza Guy changed all this! Single handedly this man created the first real world value use case for Bitcoin. This Pizza represents so much more than just 10,000BTC for a pizza. Bitcoin went from nerdy digital tokens to "money" with that purchase.
For the first time Bitcoin could be used to purchase real world items!
So I just want to say thank you Pizza Guy for growing the ecosystem, for creating the first real world transaction for Bitcoin, and helping to bring BTC to the mainstream!
Thank you!
