Today’s Bitcoin Pizza Day is taking a particular shape.
Yes, this is the first Pizza Day where there are two ground values in the question More than $ 1 billionBut it is not what I am talking about here.
No, today some time, in the center of New York City, in Behind a polite bar roomThe brave contribution of the lasslo hansses is being honored with something else – a simple metal plaque that represents their induction in the bitcoin hall of fame.
Officially launching Puck Bar and RestaurantIt is a small addition to 500 either Hall of Fams that is installed globally. This may also seem to be a strange option. For example, I could not imagine that many early bitcoiners were enamored with sports praise.
Nevertheless, it is a small reminder of something that is lost in all conversations around Bitcoin’s march in conversation of above $ 100,000 – while bitcoin can be, purposefully, the best store of value, value is self -subjective. As Austrian economists learned (and Fiat economists often forget), this is something that we make and exchange through our actions.
Therefore, I, for one, will be there to support my, because I value Laszlo’s sacrifice. Certainly, he can lose $ 1 billion, but he has earned something more: our respect and admirer for our intentions and his foresight.
And for this, I cannot think better to include anyone in the bitcoin hall of fame.

On this day
Bitcoin Pizza Day is actually more than Bitcoin Pizza Week.
It took someone four days to take Lasslo Honeyses on their offer of 10,000 BTC for two big pizza.
“I like things like onion, chilli, sausage, mushrooms, tomato, paperoni, etc.. Just standard items are no strange fish topping or anything like that. wrote On bitcointalk.
Without interested counterparts, Laszlo also suggested that he should increase his dialect: “So no one wants to buy me pizza? Do I am offering very little bitcoin amount?”
The user Bitcoinfx replied: “Laszlo I will offer you to buy a pizza, but I am not based in the USA, so they can think that I am a prank collar. If you don’t get any other proposal then I can see how you can go about buying an online. Are you hungry or you like just pizza?”
The next day, laszlo will show Picture There is evidence that someone finally worked. The deal was held on IRC with an early adoption Jeremy “Jeros” studio, which was also mining bitcoin around the same time through Cloud.
There is no question that Laszlo did a lot for Pizza with his passion for bitcoin. He also did a lot for Satoshi, even when he did not really feel so.
One in 2018 InterviewLaszlo probably gave the most obvious insight that in the very early days, he loved to develop bitcoins with Satoshi.
Overall, Laszlo exchanged hundreds of emails with Satoshi in 2010, making the manufacturer of Bitcoin often sent tasks to complete the task.
“I felt that bitcoin was amazing, and I wanted to join it, but I had a regular developing work,” Honeyses told Business Insider. “Fauts me ‘Hey, can you fix this bug?” ‘Hey, can you do this?’ ,
“He says,” Hey, downwards, “or ‘We have these insects – we need to fix it.” I think we are not a team.
Laszlo was clear that he respects Satoshi deeply, but there were still some requests that were not quite right. “I brushed them because I was the one who cares if this man tells me to go on the pound sand and go away? It was my job or nothing – it was a hobby.”
“I was trying to befriend him. He looked very crazy about the people who broke the software. He kept calling it ‘pre-relief’, and I was helping him release it.”
Bitcoin core developers will leave the naming convention only “0.x”, which means the software is still in beta, in 2021 – a decade later. It was a symbolic step, which represented the maturity of bitcoin since the hedi of Satoshi. And so Bitcoin is Pizza Day.
