TFW you spent a billion dollars on two shitty pizzas from Papa John’s.

What no one mentions is that it was easy to restack the amount he spent back then.

I love Laszlo’s story. Fookin’ legend. nostr:note1rnnldrhdadkj645d2f76y6t6zv3jsmzqjm2gs6e23z785x9typgqpy5gc3

He mined way more than 10K until Satoshi asked him to stop. His act of spending it was how a lot of early coins got redistributed.

No, he took his girlfriend on a trip and spent it all. Those were the early days.

No, that was technically nostr:npub1g53mukxnjkcmr94fhryzkqutdz2ukq4ks0gvy5af25rgmwsl4ngq43drvk when he sold over 5K bitcoin for around $5. But the pizza was the first sale for a physical good.

I'm still traumatized by the pizza I bought with Bitcoin. It was back in 2011, and had I just paid cash, I'd have an extra $400k in my stash today.

My friend, it hurts to talk about all the coffee and sandwiches and t-shirts and even a laptop I spent sats on in the past. And just yesterday I did it again. It never ends! nostr:note1nr0q2q68akq7w2csmjuyykhxzhn06400m85434u95lh3sqv5kukqxh0h36

Papa John’s is many things but it is not by any standard great pizza.

I'm usually able to forget about it, but then someone will mention buying a pizza with Bitcoin and it all comes rushing back. Lol

On Bitcoin Pizza Day in 2015 I crowdfunded and spent an entire bitcoin on pizzas (ten whole pies!) that were donated to a homeless shelter. For me it was just another way of honoring Laszlo and Satoshi by giving back. #NoRagrets nostr:note14r25vutf5p0lyqqdxfuypmfrqvwxxk50krqrg8zhpna8s79m99xsfrp752

I did replace with more purchases. But that doesn't cancel out what I spent on pizza. No matter what I did, I would be $400k richer today had I not bought the pizza.

This is getting into some serious mental gymnastics. I had bitcoin that was worth $25 at the time. I spent that bitcoin to buy a pizza. I no longer had that bitcoin. That bitcoin is worth $400k today. Had I not spent that bitcoin, my stack today would be worth $399,975 more that it's worth today. That's really the bottom line.

Lol no it doesn't no matter if you replace it or not, you no longer have the resource you spent. If I spend $50 on something, and I later add $50 to my wallet, the fact remains that I would have ended up with $100 had I not spent the $50.

I would still be short the bitcoin I spent on pizza.

The be clear, I understand what you're saying. The issue isn't my comprehension. I don't agree with your perspective. If I had 100 btc, and I spent 50 btc, even if I obtained 50 additional btc to "replace" what I spent, the end result is that I'm still down 50 btc that I would have had if I hadn't spent it. You can replace the instrument, but you can't replace the value. Even if I got 1000 btc, I would still be down the 50 btc I spent on pizza.
