It was 2010 and people here are acting like he's some kind of retard when in reality this event was the literal meme that made people realize bitcoin was an actual thing.
It was a big deal at the time that this shit was used to buy anything at all. Was worth fuck all and was just a handful of schizos on bitcointalk.
This, and then it finally getting to $1 after over 2 full years of being worthless were the two big events that started the first 'bull run'.
If this pizza thing never happened and the meme didn't get shard and posted on /b/, reddit, slashdot, hackernews etc it's quite possible that this shit could have gone no where.

How does it not? I mean meme in the most literal sense of the word, not in whatever zoomer abomination people use the word as now(like a synonym for 'joke' or whatever).
The memetic spread of ideas, particularly that bitcoin was an actual thing and not some random message board HYIP scam or whatever, was how bitcoin or anything catches on.
The pizza was the first thing that gets spread around as something that is barely interesting, but crushes the whole 'you can't buy anything with it therefore it's fake' thing.
Then the biggest meme that caught my attention personally and made me actually look into what bitcoin was when it hit $1.
Although 2011 it spread everywhere, even major media. But the pizza was absolutely one of the first memetic seeds planted and it mattered a lot more than people think.
One guy is using it to order pizza to his house in 2010, and by 2011 people are doing the same but with heroin kek...it was a perfect meme and congress was crying about it that same year in 2011. And it was on CNN and whatever else too.
It went from nothing, worthless, to something with substance. From my view I think the pizza meme played a big part in that. If it hadn't happened, maybe something similar would have. Maybe not. But either way it's a perfect meme in so many ways.
Even the denomination of 10k BTC is perfect. It's almost as if a marketing genius came up with it. Overall it was a very lucky event.

I was there in 2011 100% when it hit $1(which was what triggered me to look into it and start reading bitcointalk).
But only vaguely aware of it in 2010. And only vaguely aware of it then because of the pizza meme and Amir trying to get a decentralized poker network going in 2010 with btc.
My earliest direct memory was the page where you had the option to download bitcoinQT, which was a plain html site with zero css and zero styling. Just black text on a white background with the default browser font. I didn't download it because I couldn't run untrusted software and I didn't have the skill set or understanding to go to Sorceforge to download and read and/or compile the source. Being on Windows back then I basically couldn't run any executable that I wasn't 100% sure was fine.
But the point is before it hit $1 it had no meaning to me other than thinking it was the next Liberty Reserve or some other centralized shit since there was nothing other than centralized shit. I had no concept of what it actually was until something in my brain thought that it was worth actually looking at once it hit $1.
$1 was a powerful meme
The pizza was powerful meme
The combination of someone spending what was recently $10000 on pizza with some mysterious currency that has some vague potential relevance to my work
I'm not saying there aren't other ways it would have been successful. I just know from my own direct experience what events were important.
It could have happened in many ways. But it also could have also died off had it not caught on. Maybe it was inevitable with time. But then again the idea seemed questionable even then when deepbit had over 50% of the network. It wasn't as obvious as people think.

It was inevitable. I was an unbeliever, somebody who understood the potential of what the next evolution in book keeping freed from accountancy manipulations from a central player was, but thought back then, yeah that the centralization of mining would be used to kill it in the cradle. They failed and the likes of lucif, backopy and piney were right, simple as. Even back then there was not really a way to kill it, and memes, as advertising or retail had absolutely nothing to do with it, it just made the evolution happen faster
