Pizza, sats, and the first ever inductee to the Bitcoin Hall of Fame. Here’s how it all went down at Bitcoin Pizza Day 2025 at @PUBKEY, sponsored by Blockstream.

Thanks to @PUBKEY for hosting, and to everyone who joined us for Bitcoin Pizza Day 2025. See you next week at the Bitcoin Conference.

Fifteen years after Bitcoin bought its first pizzas, we’re marking the moment with something that lasts longer than a slice. We’re donating 1,000 Jade Bitcoin hardware wallets to @My First Bitcoin to support hands-on self-custody education with open-source tools from day one. For a new generation of Bitcoiners, it starts with Jade. Want to bring open-source Bitcoin tools to your local community? Blockstream Local supports grassroots meetups with education packs, @Liquid Network for demos, and hardware like Jade. Register your meetup.

Doors are now open for ticketed guests and @PUBKEY is buzzing. 15 years since Bitcoin bought pizza and now we celebrate everything that followed. Hall of Fame, surprise guests, and a big announcement from Blockstream Jade coming soon.

Thanks to everyone who came out to our free Pizza Day session at @PUBKEY. We handed out over 100 Jade Plus wallets and went through more than 50 pies. The ticketed event starts at 5 PM. See you soon.

Pizza Day 2025 is in full swing at @PUBKEY! 2 slices from NYC’s most legendary pizzerias, a drink, and a Jade Plus, for just 10,000 sats. The original Bitcoin deal lives on. Kind of.

Best-in-class security has never looked better. Revealed at Bitcoin 2025.

Your bitcoin is untouchable - even if your device isn’t. Jade Plus’ Blind Oracle PIN protection is the next-level of fully open-source bitcoin hardware wallet security.

As Liquid's technical provider, we are eager to begin work alongside the newest members of the Technology Board to advance the @Liquid Network 's technical roadmap over the next 12 months. Last year's members helped us introduce a new policy that reduced Confidential Transaction fees by up to 90% and established a network-wide dust limit of 21 sats.
