Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day! Today was the day when the first "transaction for goods" were made in Bitcoin, or if you like it more, in cryptocurrency! It happened on 22 May 2010 when there were no exchanges for crypto and it was done through forums... The guys asked people if someone wants to deliver 2 pizzas to his place for 10.000 Bitcoins, which was around $40 at that time... The deal was made, he got his pizzas and we don't know if the pizza delivery boy spent his tokens or HODLed... 😂 You can find more about the Bitcoin history here

All of that reminded me of my first encounter with Bitcoin and crypto... It happened in 2013. when my friend was talking about this revolutionary cryptocurrency that will change the world... At that time, I had some experience with certain tokens that were BEFORE the blockchain era, so it intrigued me... So, I decided to test the water and I bought my first Bitcoin directly from my friend, but as I didn't have my own wallet, he send the tokens to Bitstamp exchange... I made a small screenshot just to remember the data and as you can see, it was more than 10 years ago!!! The price was around $130 in those moments and it wasn't a small money for me, knowing that I'm "investing" in something completely unknown to me...
Unfortunately, I didn't HODL that Bitcoin for a long time... After just 2-3 months (or less?), the price dropped to under $100, I panicked and sold my BTC! 🤦 That was probably my first and the most important lesson about panic selling and FUD... 😂 I'm still doing stupid moves occasionally, but very, very rarely I'm selling my assets when they are down... Paper hands have changed to Diamond hands... 😂
Back to the report numbers!
In the last 7 days, we lost one member and got 1 new member! A warm welcome to @kemmyb! Welcome to the PH-Pool and I hope you will have lots of fun with us!
This week, we have mined 133 BEE tokens in total...
This POOL doesn't have fees and you get up to 20% MORE by delegating to it!
What about the bonus tokens?
Two months ago, I distributed for the first time the tokens from my project on HIVE, @liotes! I'm running the project with @achim03 for more than 2 years now and I have to say that it goes very well... Token value is going up, even in this hard bear market... So, last time I was giving away LEN tokens, and this time, I would like to give away LENM tokens (Liotes Energy Mill), which are MINER tokens that you can stake and they will "create" LEN tokens for you!
There is a second use case in how you can earn some income with it, and that's pairing LENM with LEN and providing liquidity to the diesel pool... In that way, you can earn over 13% APR at the moment...
There will be distributed 2.5 LENM tokens to the delegators of the pool as a bonus reward today!
As always, in the end, let's give the exact numbers for this week... There will be distributed 133 BEE tokens and 2.5 LENM tokens as a bonus... The APR (without the bonus) was 7.302%, and when we added the bonus it went up to 8.764%!
I have calculated the ROI approximately with medium prices for all tokens at the moment of creating this post... So, those numbers are valid if you bought WB and sold BEE tokens at the middle HiveEngine price...

I also have a friend who bought BTC at very low, but due to some need, he had to sell all his bitcoins at a loss I think. But that's how life works and we don't know what's coming.
Yeah... that's how life works and how it teaches us... I have learned my lesson! 😃 And your friend probably too!
!PIZZA day was the start of new technology era that just keeps getting better. Great work with the mining. I appreciate getting the BEE and also the bonus.

I am not following much but will see what I can d with LEN//LENM.
Well, @liotes project is out there for more than 2 years... no hurry... 😃
Well it seems you had your Pizza day too. :) But better that then what happened to quite few people who got or bought BTC years ago and then forgot or lost the passwords in a meantime.
ANd 10000 BTC Pizza..yeah man..I doubt those BTC's remained long in Pizzeria custody too.

Hahahaah... Yeah... My case was better... at least I sold my BTC and didn't lose... But, it's not really a comforting thing... lol... 😂
oh man! sorry to hear that. at least you were quite early still.
Yeah... "at least"... which doesn't mean too much as the result is the same... 😂
Anyways, I came back into the "space" in 2017 and here we are... :)
Thanks for the warm welcome and bonus tokens! 🙂
You are welcome! Thanks for your trust and welcome once again!
I thought the bonus might be swap.bitcoin 😅😂😂
!PIZZA
Heheheh... Well, maybe I should do it in the next round... The only problem is that I'm afraid that those with smaller delegations wouldn't get even a satoshi... 😏
True. Maybe not the best yet.
Noooo wayyy you had some BTC back in the day 😬😬
Where did you buy it back then though??
I bought it from a friend who sent me to my wallet at Bitstamp... In those days, I think it was the biggest exchange, after the famous MtGox 😃
I have no idea to whom I sold my BTC... just know that I sold it and said to myself "I will never go back to crypto!" 😂 and after 4 years, I was back... lol... mining ETH... 🤣
That is an interesting story about your first BTC. FUD can hurt when you first get started trading.
Thanks for running the pool and for the BEE/LENM tokens
yup... Firstly, you are hit by FOMO, and after that with FUD... It's a rollercoaster... 😂
I can imagine how much money can be made by acting contrary. Even now.)
Thanks for the rewards!
Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day!

You are welcome! Thanks for your delegations!
I am glad you progressed to diamond hands. I don't even want to talk about how you must have felt when you realized your $130 would have been worth more if you hadn't given in to your first FUD.
But it's a blessing that you were introduced to crypto and you have been learning and implementing.
Welcome to your new addition, kemmyb. All the best, in your projects, sir
Yeah, it looks bad when I look at the past, but I don't regret it too much... That was a good experience that served me in the future... Had many other hard hits later, but all that just made us stronger...Every bear market that we survive, makes us better, more resilient, and more aware of some important things...
There is no free school of life... 😃 Thanks for the comment!
Surely, life has no free school, we ought to pay for every experience and lessons
My pleasure ❣️
I wish I hadn't kept myself away from cryptos at that times.
I suppose that my biggest mistake was that I didn't dive deep enough in those days... If I made better research, I would probably think a bit differently about crypto in general... When I came back in 2017, I did exactly that... Went to blockchain conferences, attend seminars, and when I discovered how great the tech is, I began to accumulate... Without selling in bear markets... :)
It was a bit of a bummer not having pizza on Bitcoin Pizza Day... but I am sticking to my new health diet. Health comes first...🙃😎
Heheheh... I didn't have pizza either! 🤦 Next time we should do it...
Yeah, I suppose its just one day. I use to own a pizza outlet a few years ago... so I really enjoy pizza!😎
Even today, when that person sees its value, he will have a lot of trouble because he has suffered a lot, but then we should think that what is not in our destiny, we can never get.
Yeah... Everything happens for a reason... Who knows why it was good for him...
Thanks for the update and tokens!
