This Reddit user did not expect to be contacted by a pizza deliverer because of the Bitcoin (BTC) tip he received 7 years ago!
To make matters worse, in December 2013, a Reddit user known as btcbible recounted his experience of offering two tip payment options either in cash or Bitcoin to a pizza deliverer.
The unnamed pizza deliveryman, however, wisely chose the tip in Bitcoin when offered with $ 5 cash or 0.05 BTC given through a paper wallet.
Just gave the pizza guy a paper wallet as a tip (0.0069BTC ~ $ 5) with instructions and email address if he needs help - went better than expected! from Bitcoin
Then, btcbible gives the pizza sender a way to import the private key available through Electrum. At that time, the price per unit of BTC reached $ 774.
The latest, btcbible in last night's post, said he was contacted by a pizza deliveryman after 7 years because he wanted to get a way to transfer the savings into a hot wallet.
7 years ago, I gave a pizza guy a $ 5 tip in BTC (.05 BTC at the time). That $ 5 tip is now worth over $ 2850. Today, I received this. from CryptoCurrency
With the latest record high Bitcoin all-time high (ATH) jump, $ 58,330 last night, the BTC is worth over $ 2850 with a jump over 7,000% since the pizza was shipped.
The Reddit user explained that he was not a Bitcoin millionaire as he had liquidated all his savings last year to buy a house. btcbible also informed that when he made the offer, the pizza deliveryman was not very familiar with crypto but understood the concept.
This is reminiscent of the story of a programmer who bought two slices of pizza for 10,000 BTC at $ 41 at the time. The current price makes the pizza worth over $ 557 million, making it the most expensive pizza in the world.
