Each year, May 22 marks the anniversary of the day a Florida man paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas in the first Bitcoin transaction. The day has become legendary, first because it was the first commercial use of bitcoins, but more so because of Bitcoin’s worth in the following years. For the two pizzas, the man in question paid a fortune at today's prices.
