比特披萨日：那个花10000枚比特币买披萨的兄弟，后来怎么样了？

5月22日对大多数人来说应该只是个普通的一天，但是一小群“极客”却在庆祝一个冷门小众的节日——“比特披萨节”。在这一天，一些比特币玩家会吃块披萨，举杯致敬一个叫拉斯洛·汉耶茨（Laszlo Hanyecz）的倒霉蛋。

May 22 should be just an ordinary day for most people, but a small group of thugs are celebrating a cold holiday > . On this day, some bitcoins will eat a piece of pizza and raise their glasses to a loser named Laszlo Hanyecz.

那么当年这个用一万枚比特币购买披萨的哥们如今去哪了呢？是否会为自己当年的行为追悔莫及，我们今天就好好还原事情真相，追踪一下著名的比特币披萨。

So where's the friend who bought the pizza with 10,000 bitcoins now? Will he not be able to repent for what he did? Let's go back to the truth today and track down the famous Bitcoin pizza.

有些朋友可能听过这个故事，但是对故事的真伪一直会持有自己的看法，这一个比特币披萨事件经过多个版本口耳相传，是否还真实，事情的真相到底如何呢？

Some friends may have heard the story, but they always have their own views on its authenticity. Is it true that the Bitcoin Pizza incident has passed through multiple versions of the story?

Laszlo 是怎么获得比特币的呢？他又是怎么用比特币换披萨的？

How did Laszlo get Bitcoin? How did he trade it for pizza?

首先，他是个精通计算机的程序员，并且懂得怎么挖比特币，在比特币系统算力不高的早期，他就开始挖矿了。

First, he's a computer proficient programmer, and he knows how to dig bitcoins, and he started digging mines in the early days when the bitcoins were not very effective.

但是你可能并不知道，他是使用GPU挖矿的第一人。他觉得用CPU挖矿不过瘾，发现显卡GPU，比一般的CPU挖矿要快800倍，因为对于挖矿，速度是唯一决定的因素，就看谁的速度快。

But you don't know, he's the first person to use GPU to dig. He thinks CPU's not an addict, and he finds the CPU, 800 times faster than the normal CPU, because for mining, speed is the only determining factor.

800倍是什么概念？就好像是机关枪对比弹弓的射频，所以当时他就挖了大量的比特币，当然他也是为了好玩。

What's the concept of 800 times? It's like a machine gun versus a slingshot's radio frequency, so he dug up a lot of bitcoins, of course for fun.

挖到了那么多比特币，那时候又不值钱。用来干什么呢？

"Strong" dug up so much bitcoin that it wasn't worth anything at the time. What's it for?

主人公Laszlo Hanyecz在比特币论坛BitcoinTalk上发帖声称：“我可以付一万比特币来购买几个披萨” ，他甚至对自己的口味偏好做了要求：“我喜欢洋葱，胡椒，香肠，蘑菇等，不需要奇怪的鱼肉披萨。”

Laszlo Hanyecz , the owner of the strong, wrote on BitcoinTalk at the Bitcoin Forum: “I can pay 10,000 bitcoin to buy a few pizzas”, and he even asked for his taste preferences: “I like onions, peppers, sausages, mushrooms, etc., without the need for strange fish pizza.”

翻译成中文就是：

has been translated into Chinese:

我将用10,000个比特币支付两个大一点的比萨饼，这样我可以留下一些在第二天吃。我喜欢留下比萨饼在晚些时候吃。

I'll pay two bigger pizzas in 10,000 bitcoins so I can leave some for the next day. I like to leave pizza for later.

你可以自己制作比萨饼，并把它带到我家，或定一个交货地点，但我的目的是用比特币交换我自己没有订购或准备的食品，有点像订购酒店或其他地方的“早餐拼盘”，他们只是帮你带来吃的东西，而你很高兴！如果你对这种交换方式有兴趣，请让我知道，并且我们可以制定出了一项协议。

You can make your own pizzas and take them to my house, or fix a delivery point, but my aim is to exchange bitcoin for food I have not ordered or prepared, sort of like ordering a hotel or something like a breakfast combo, and they're just bringing you something to eat, and you're happy! If you're interested in this exchange, let me know, and we can make a deal.

谢谢，

Thank you.

Laszlo

我只是认为，如果我可以说用比特币买披萨，会很有趣。

I just thought it would be fun if I could say that I bought pizza in bitcoin.

然后真有人愿意用2张披萨券和他交换，交易达成！

Then someone would trade him for two pizza coupons and make a deal!

我想告诉大家我成功用10,000个比特币买了披萨。

I want to tell you that I successfully bought pizza with 10,000 bitcoins.

在论坛上，他还提到

At the Forum, he also referred to .

我的1岁的女儿真的很喜欢披萨！

My 1-year-old daughter really likes pizza!

Laszlo对《纽约时报》说：

Laszlo said to The New York Times:

“那时候比特币还没有什么价值，所以用比特币购买比萨饼的想法非常酷。没有人知道它会发展得这么大。我想说最终做到了。”

"Well, bitcoin wasn't worth much then, so the idea of buying pizza in bitcoin was so cool. Nobody knew it would grow so much. I wanted to say that eventually it did."

Laszlo当时亲手拍的照片

经过几天之后，在5月22号Laszlo发出了交易成功的炫耀贴，表示已经和一个叫Jercos的哥们完成了交易，还附上了披萨的图片。至此，这个不超过20人回复的帖子沉寂了。

A few days later, on May 22, Laszlo launched a show-off on the success of the deal, stating that a deal had been concluded with a buddy named Jercos and that a picture of the pizza was attached. So the post, which no more than 20 respondents responded, was silent.

事情来到了2010年的8月份，随着比特币正式交易所的上线，有好事的就把这个帖子挖了出来。表示600美元的披萨好吃吗（2010年8月价格），11月的时候还有哥们发出2600美元的披萨好吃吗的跟帖（2010年11月价格）。

The story of `strange' came to August 2010 and dug up this post with the official Bitcoin exchange. Is $600 pizza good (August 2010), and 2,600 bucks worth of pizza from a buddy in November? (November 2010 prices).

Laszlo 做出了回应，玩笑似的表示自己现在已经不能够一天挖几千枚币了，所以可能再也吃不起这种披萨。后面的故事大家可能都能猜到了，这种跟帖随着比特币价格的飙升越来越多，截至目前原贴下有73页不同时期大家的前排留影。这个比特币披萨的故事也就大概还原了。

Laszlo responded by jokingly saying that he was no longer able to dig thousands of coins a day, so he might not be able to afford the pizza anymore. The story that follows is likely to be guessed, as bitcoin prices soared, and so far has 73 pages of front rows for everyone at different times. The story of the bitcoin pizza is probably the same.

不仅10000个比特币现在是天价，

Not only are 10,000 bitcoins in real money now.

就连矿工费也高达0.99个比特币

扒一扒细节

{\bord0\shad0\alphaH3D}Strange details

1. Laszlo后来去哪里了，还持有很多比特币嘛？

Where did Laszlo go and hold a lot of bitcoins?

根据Laszlo在论坛上最后的发言（2014）年，他再次之后还持续挖过一段时间的矿，但并没有长期的保存它，而是在不同时期卖掉了。（总计卖掉了8w多枚比特币），如今他的比特币账户趋近余零。

According to Laszlo’s final speech at the Forum in (2014), he continued to dig again for some time, but did not save it for a long time, but sold it at different times. (a total of more than 8w bitcoins were sold), and his bitcoin account is now nearing zero.

Laszlo公布的自己其中一个比特币地址

Laszlo published one of its own bitcoin addresses.

他还爆出了当年购买他比特币的一些买家，确实有的因此暴富并且换上了豪宅。当然他也没有表示很后悔，他觉得这在当时正是证明了比特币的货币交易属性，是一件值得骄傲的事情。（如此乐观的性格看来还是当年那个开玩笑般用比特币购买披萨的程序员）。

He also blew up some of the buyers who bought his bitcoin in the same year, and some of them did get rich and changed into mansions. He did not, of course, express his regret, which he thought was a proud thing to prove at the time that Bitcoin’s money deal was its nature.

2. 当时卖披萨的人现在在哪里？

Where's the pizza guy now?

当年买了Laszlo一万个比特币的Jercos当然也是这次历史时刻的另一个主角。他在去年的时候接受了一家媒体的访问，并漏出了自己的真实身份。

Another major player in this historic moment, of course, was Jercos

原来Jercos非常的年轻，现在也只有26岁（买10000个比特币那年仅仅19岁）。他告诉记者说自己在bitcoin刚创世的2009年就关注了这项技术，并成为了出入各大极客论坛的一员。他与卖披萨的Laszlo并不认识，但是总是在同一个IRC（聊天室）出入，在当时算是对ID比较相熟。

It turns out that Jercos was very young and is now only 26 years old (at the age of 19 when 10,000 bitcoins were bought). He told reporters that he had been interested in this technology since the birth of Bitcoin in 2009 and became a member of the Great Forum of Visitors. He did not know Laszlo, who sold pizzas, but always did, at the same time, go in and out of the same IRC (chat room) and was familiar with IDs at that time.

谈到一万个比特币的去向时，他表示在第二年他把这一万枚比特币以400美金的价格出售了，回报率在十倍。（虽然十倍但是还是很可惜了。。）如今他对区块链的技术还是十分看好，对以太坊也十分看好。

Turning to the fate of 10,000 bitcoins, he said that in the following year he had sold that 10,000 bitcoins at $400, with a ten-fold return. (Although ten times, it's a shame.) Now he looks very well at the technology of the block chain, and very well at the Ether.

谁也不曾想，8年后的今天，

No one ever thought, eight years later, today,

根据交易所截止5月初的比特币市值

According to the market value of Bitcoin as of the beginning of May of the exchange

当时的10000个比特币如果留到现在，

At the time, 10,000 bitcoins were left behind.

相当于6个多亿人民币。

That's more than 600 million yuan.
