Bitcoin Pizza Day recalls the date when a BitcoinTalk forum user identified as Laszlo Hanyecz offered 10,000 BTC for two pizzas on May 22, 2010. Porto Alegre will reflect this fun and ironic situation in real life.
The decision to celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day, which will be celebrated every May 22, was made after councilors Jessé Sangalli and Alexandre Bobadra attended a memorial event on May 22, 2022, where they learned about the importance of Bitcoin.

According to Sangalli, the councilor who presented the bill, the goal is to bring visibility to decentralized finance innovations in the city of approximately 1.5 million people.
This decision will reportedly bring visibility to cryptocurrencies and indicate that the city is open to technological innovation. It was also stated that the Bitcoin Pizza Day celebration will help bring the discussion of other cryptocurrency to the general public as it is harmless, does not cost the treasury or restrict freedoms.
