To complete the transaction, Hanyecz had to find a willing seller who was prepared to accept Bitcoin as payment. After some searching, he managed to find someone who was interested in the deal. The two parties agreed on a price of ₿10,000 for the pizzas.

Laszlo Hanyecz decided to use his bitcoin to purchase something tangible. He chose to buy two pizzas from Papa John's. This was a bold move, as bitcoin was still a relatively unknown and untrusted digital currency at that time.
