Papa John's, a popular pizza chain, inadvertently became part of cryptocurrency history when, in 2010, a customer used 10,000 Bitcoins to purchase two pizzas from one of its stores. This transaction, carried out by Laszlo Hanyecz and facilitated by Jeremy Sturdivant, is recognized as the first real-world use of Bitcoin. Celebrated annually as "Bitcoin Pizza Day," it highlights Bitcoin's early utility as a currency and its dramatic increase in value since then. Papa John's association with this event underscores the cryptocurrency's journey into mainstream awareness.
