Huobi To Host Special Sale On Bitcoin Pizza Day

May 18, 2019 18:30nbspUTC | Updated: May 18, 2019 at 18:30nbspUTC BynbspRushali Shome Leading blockchain firm Huobi Global is all set to celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day on the 22nd of this month with a variety of initiatives. In honour of the day, Huobi will also host a sale where Bitcoin will be sold at discounted prices, with nearly half the market price being slashed off. This will be the ninth Bitcoin Pizza Day after Florida-based programmer Laszlo Hanyecz went down in history on May 22nd, 2010 for buying two Bitcoins for 10,000 Bitcoins.

In light of this interesting purchase, Bitcoin Pizza Day has been a well-loved tradition within the crypto community. Livio Weng, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Huobi Global, has said that Bitcoin Pizza Day is basically being celebrated as Prime Day by Huobi in 2019. He elaborated on how the idea for the celebration came about and said: “Things started as a joke that we were going to list Bitcoin through Prime but then I kept thinking, what better way to mark Prime 3 and celebrate Pizza Day?.

Huobi’s Pizza Day promo will have Bitcoins worth 1.5 million USDT being offered at special discounts. There will be two rounds, the first beginning at 18:00 hours (GMT+8) of 22nd May, where 20% of the total supply of Bitcoin will be sold at 50% off the market price. The second round will see a 20% discount on the remaining Bitcoins.
