4 things 10,000 bitcoins could buy today

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day!

On May 22, 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas. At the time, it cost about $15. Today? About $350 million.

To celebrate how far Bitcoin has come — and commemorate history’s most expensive pizzas — let’s take a look at 4 things 10,000 BTC could buy in 2021.

  • 28 million large cheese pizzas
  • 165,000 moped scooters (for local delivery)
  • 3 commercial airplanes (for global delivery)
  • 14 billion after-dinner mints

If that’s how much Bitcoin has changed since 2010, just think how different things could look in the next 11 years1. Hopefully pizza still tastes the same.
