Bitcoin Pizza Day Event Review
Author: BlockTempo
On May 22, 2010, an engineer purchased two boxes of pizza for 10,000,000 bitcoins. To commemorate this historic moment, this date has been designated as "Bitcoin Pizza Day" every year.
This year, in addition to eating pizza, BlockTempo wanted to provide everyone with an extraordinary experience. On the recently concluded Sunday (21), they held an unprecedented "Bitcoin Pizza Day 3-on-3 Basketball Party," attracting over 1,000 crypto community partners and friends from various sectors to join the celebration.
Now, let BlockTempo take you back to review the exciting moments of the event.
Held at Taipei's Trendiest Venue X-PLAZA
The event took place at the "Outdoor Sports Venue X-PLAZA" in the Xinyi District's Shin Kong Mitsukoshi A11, covering an area of 300 ping. On a sunny afternoon, entering the event venue immediately allowed participants to feel the vibrant atmosphere, with energetic developers and eager athletes engaging passionately on-site.
In addition to the competition area, various food stalls were set up, including pizza, fried snacks, ice cream, and several exchanges such as CoinW and HOYA BIT showcasing the latest blockchain technologies and application cases, introducing their services to participants.
Exciting Opening Dance by the Electric Leopard Cheerleaders
Before the official start of the competition, BlockTempo specially invited the sweet and lovely Taoyuan Clouded Leopard cheerleaders, the "Electric Leopard Girls," to perform an exciting dance, cheering for the participating teams and adding enthusiasm and energy to the event.
Although this competition was not a formal basketball game, the skills of the participating teams were truly impressive. Even members of the UBA (University Basketball Association) A Division signed up, showcasing stunning ball skills in just five minutes of play, making it feel like watching a professional match, igniting the excitement and tension among the audience.
It is worth mentioning that the event also specially invited well-known crypto KOL Brain Brother to serve as a commentator, explaining the thrilling activities. He sincerely expressed:
"The competition was much more exciting than I imagined, and celebrating Bitcoin Pizza Day on the rooftop of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi is great exposure for the entire crypto community. The participants were truly skilled, and the championship match was so intense that it went into overtime, making the whole venue electrifying."
