Pizza Day from Islamabad: Hamza Khan.

The ninth country on the tape. “I’m Hamza Khan from Islamabad, Pakistan with We Them Media,” and what he wants to say is about a pizza. “Back in 2010, someone spent 10,000 bitcoins on just two pizzas. At the time, it sounded ridiculous. Today, it’s history.”

His reading of why the day matters: “it wasn’t really about pizza. It was about proving that an idea could become something real.” And what he loves about crypto communities: “People from different countries, different languages building together. Nobody changes the world alone. Every movement starts with one transaction, one conversation, one community.” Then the sign-off, “Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day. Let’s curate the world.” Part of the sixth annual Bitcoin Pizza Day coverage. The transcript below is from the original audio.

0:00I’m Hamza Khan from Islamabad, Pakistan with We Them Media and you know what’s crazy? A pizza that changed history. Back in 2010, someone spent 10,000 bitcoins on just two pizzas. At the time, it sounded ridiculous. Today, it’s history. Because it wasn’t really about pizza. It was about proving that an idea could become something real. That’s what I love about crypto communities. People from different countries, different languages building together. Nobody changes the world alone. Every movement starts with one transaction, one conversation, one community.
