May 22 – Bitcoin Pizza Day | On the Day BTC Breaks $110K, Buy Your Slice of Pizza with AP UCard

In the history of Bitcoin, May 22, 2010 marked the start of a true revolution.On that day, Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer in Florida, exchanged 10,000 BTC for two pizzas.This transaction symbolized the first time cryptocurrency was used to pay for a real-world product.Since then, the crypto community has commemorated it as Bitcoin Pizza Day.

Today, Bitcoin has surpassed $110,000 for the first time in history.Those two pizzas? They would now be worth over $1.1 billion.Back then, it was one programmer and one pizza shop.Today, it’s millions of users and the entire global economy.Now it’s your turn — to swipe your own slice of pizza with AP UCard.

The "Untouchable Crypto" Problem Is Finally Being Solved

For over a decade, digital assets gained value but remained disconnected from real-life utility.You could hold, trade, or transfer crypto — but when it came to buying things, the road was long.

  • OTC channels are risky and complex

  • Centralized off-ramp methods are slow and expensive

  • Traditional banking systems block crypto-related funds

  • Opening overseas accounts is difficult and highly restricted

Most users hold assets on-chain, but lack the ability to spend them off-chain.AP UCard was created to solve this problem.

What Is AP UCard?

AP UCard is a global digital asset payment card jointly issued by a UK-licensed financial institution and Visa/Mastercard.It is designed specifically for stablecoin users and built to bridge the gap between blockchain wealth and real-world consumption.

Think of it as a crypto assets wallet + a Visa/MasterCard debit card + a global consumer account, all in one.With AP UCard, users can:

  • Top up easily: Recharge crypto assets directly from wallets without going through centralized exchanges

  • Spend globally: Use your card in over 210 countries and 170M+ merchants, including supermarkets, restaurants, retail, transportation, and more

  • Go online or offline: Swipe at POS terminals, shop on e-commerce platforms, and bind to Apple Pay, Alipay, WeChat Pay, Meituan, Douyin, PayPal, etc.

  • Choose how to pay: Support for tap-to-pay (NFC), QR scan payments, ATM cash withdrawals at over 3.2 million ATMs, and pre-authorization for hotels, rentals, etc.

  • Manage flexibly: Each account supports up to 10 cards (virtual + physical), with unified balance control — ideal for individuals, families, or teams

AP UCard is no longer just a digital asset — it’s a card you can actually swipe.It turns your USDT into real money, ready for real moments — food, travel, shopping, bookings, and more.

Bitcoin Pizza Day Hits Different in 2024

Laszlo spent 10,000 BTC on two pizzas — a bold bet on the future.Today, you can buy a pizza with just 10 USDT using AP UCard — a real fulfillment of that vision.

With Bitcoin crossing $110,000, we’re not just seeing a new price record. We’re witnessing a fundamental shift in how crypto fits into real life:

  • Crypto is no longer just held — it’s being used

  • Payments are no longer off-grid — they’re within regulated systems

  • Users no longer only watch charts — they swipe, scan, and spend

  • Web3 is no longer just about code — it’s becoming part of daily life

AP UCard arrives at this moment as the gateway for digital assets to flow into the real economy.You don’t need to sell crypto or rely on an exchange.You just need a card — to buy coffee, book a ticket, or enjoy a slice of pizza.

BTC gave us ownership. AP UCard gives us usability.So if you’re enjoying pizza on May 22, remember:You’re not just honoring history — you’re participating in a real-time transformation.
