Today, May 22nd, crypto enthusiasts around the world traditionally order pizza and remember the legendary purchase by Laszlo Hanyecz. In 2010, he paid 10,000 BTC for two family-size Papa John’s pizzas. As of today, the value of that meal is an insane ~$773.4 million! 🤯
Laszlo made history forever, but his example serves as the best lesson for each of us. There is a fundamental rule in DeFi: "Spend the accumulated interest, not the principal."
If Laszlo had the Bidask Protocol and wrapped Bitcoin on TON back in 2010, his strategy would have looked completely different:
1️⃣ Put BTC to work:
Deposit his BTC into a liquidity pool on Bidask.
2️⃣ Collect fees:
While the market is volatile and others are making swaps, the position would generate a steady passive income.
3️⃣ Buy pizza with the profit:
Laszlo could have opened his own pizzeria every single day using the accrued fees, while his 10,000 BTC would remain safe and sound in his wallet.
Don't be like Laszlo from 2010. Be a smart DeFi investor in 2026. Make your assets bring real value, so you can buy life's joys with your net income, rather than by selling off the capital itself.
