I think you have the Bitcoin pizza story mixed up. Laszlo did not exchange $10,000 worth of Bitcoin for pizza instead he exchanged 10,000 Bitcoins for the pizza. At the time the 10,000 Bitcoin wasn’t even worth up to $50.

But let’s think of something, how about Laszlo himself? To spend 10,000 Bitcoin, he must have had a lot more (I assume)… how about him then?

Lazlo Hanyecz has more bitcoins and he made more trades, not only the 10,000 bitcoins for 2 pizzas we know.

Did Laszlo Hanyecz exchange 40000 BTC for 8 pizzas, not 10000 BTC for 2 pizzas?

He did not said how many trades he did before closing that offer but with his posts, it's very likely he actually made some trades for pizzas, not only one.

This is an open offer by the way.. I will trade 10,000 BTC for 2 of these pizzas any time as long as I have the funds (I usually have plenty). If anyone is interested please let me know. The exchange is favorable for anyone who does it because the 2 pizzas are only about 25 dollars total, maybe 30 if you give the guy a nice tip. If you get me the upgraded extra large ones or something, I can throw in some more bitcoins, just let me know and we'll work something out.

My 1 year old daughter really enjoys pizza too! She just smears it all over her face if you give her a whole slice, but she does eventually manage to get most of it in her mouth (minus a few loose toppings of course).

Well I didn't expect this to be so popular but I can't really afford to keep doing it since I can't generate thousands of coins a day anymore

Thanks to everyone who bought me pizza already but I'm kind of holding off on doing any more of these for now.
