Charlie and Colin reveal the shocking truth about Bitcoin Pizza Day that mainstream media got wrong. Laszlo didn't just spend 10,000 Bitcoin on pizza - he spent nearly 80,000 Bitcoin throughout 2010! We dive deep into how his GPU mining discovery revolutionized Bitcoin, why Satoshi sent him a concerned email, and how this "penance" may have actually saved Bitcoin's decentralization in its early days.

**Notes:**

• Laszlo spent ~80,000 Bitcoin total on pizza in 2010

• GPU mining was 10x more powerful than CPU mining

• Bitcoin hash rate increased 130,000% by end of 2010

• Laszlo had 1-1.5% of entire Bitcoin supply 2009-2010

• His wallet peaked at 43,854 Bitcoin

• Total wallet flows were 81,432 Bitcoin
