Unchained and Bitcoin Park Are Celebrating Bitcoin Pizza Day With a Nationwide Tour — Here's What 'The New Rules of Bitcoin' Is All About

(134 days ago) · 1 source · Summarized by CryptoBipto

Unchained, a Bitcoin financial services company, has partnered with Bitcoin Park to launch a touring event called 'The New Rules of Bitcoin' in celebration of Bitcoin Pizza Day. The initiative aims to educate and engage the Bitcoin community through in-person events. Bitcoin Pizza Day commemorates the famous 2010 transaction where 10,000 BTC were spent on two pizzas — one of the earliest real-world Bitcoin purchases.

WHY IT MATTERS

Think of Bitcoin Pizza Day like Bitcoin's unofficial birthday party — it celebrates the very first time someone used Bitcoin to buy something in the real world (two pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoin back in 2010). Unchained and Bitcoin Park are using this occasion to hit the road and teach people about Bitcoin through live events. If you're new to crypto, events like these can be a great way to learn the basics in person, ask questions, and meet others in the community. 'Collaborative custody,' which Unchained specializes in, is like having a safety deposit box where you and a trusted partner each hold a key — it's a way to keep your Bitcoin secure without relying entirely on one company or just yourself.

Bitcoin Pizza Day, celebrated every May 22nd, has become one of the most iconic dates in crypto culture. It marks the anniversary of Laszlo Hanyecz's 2010 purchase of two Papa John's pizzas for 10,000 BTC — a transaction that, at today's prices, would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
