The guy who sold 10, 000 BTC For a pizza is not retarded. He used it for what it was intended for and helped legitimize the movement

This guy does not get the respect he deserves. Every time someone talks about purchasing with bitcoins, everyone just says ‘I don’t wanna be like the guy who bought pizza with his bitcoins.’ Did anyone know bitcoin was going to be worth 60k 10 years ago? Fuck no. This guy normalized paying with bitcoin so other people could take it seriously, and here it is years later performing stronger than most fiat currencies. Satoshi nakamoto created bitcoin with the intention of replacing the centralized monetary system. Give the pizza lover the respect he deserves.
