AscendEX Bitcoin Pizza: India’s Biggest Crypto Pizza Day Party

The crypto community witnessed a historic celebration as AscendEX, a leading global centralised exchange, organised the largest-ever Bitcoin Pizza Party across multiple Indian cities to commemorate Bitcoin Pizza Day 2025. This initiative marks a milestone in India’s Web3 journey, bringing together enthusiasts, developers, and newcomers for a nationwide celebration of crypto’s most iconic story.

What Is AscendEX Bitcoin Pizza Day?

AscendEX Bitcoin Pizza Day, celebrated every May 22, marks the anniversary of the world’s first real-world Bitcoin transaction. On this day in 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas, proving Bitcoin’s utility as a medium of exchange and sparking a cultural phenomenon that continues to inspire the global crypto community. Today, those 10,000 BTC are worth billions, making it the most expensive pizza order in history and a symbol of blockchain’s transformative potential.

AscendEX: Leading the Celebration in 2025

This year, AscendEX is taking the festivities to new heights by orchestrating the biggest Bitcoin Pizza Party ever hosted by a centralized exchange in India. The celebration spans multiple cities, including Mumbai, Lucknow, and Bhopal, with local Web3 communities and DAOs joining forces to create vibrant, inclusive gatherings.

How It Started: A Community-Driven Movement

The campaign began with a call to action from AscendEX India, inviting crypto enthusiasts to host their own Bitcoin Pizza Day meetups, with AscendEX sponsoring up to five local gatherings. The response was overwhelming, with city-based DAOs and community leaders stepping up to organize events, as seen in Lucknow, Bhopal, and Mumbai. Social media buzz and registrations have surged, reflecting the excitement and grassroots energy driving India’s crypto adoption.

The movement has gained momentum, with vibrant updates and event teasers flooding social media. Community leaders and crypto influencers have amplified the campaign, sharing details and rallying local participation. From Lucknow’s developer meetups to Bhopal’s pizza-and-DeFi networking nights, the AscendEX Pizza Party series is uniting India’s Web3 ecosystem like never before.

Why It Matters: More Than Just Pizza

Bitcoin Pizza Day is a powerful reminder of how far crypto has come-from an experimental transaction to a global movement.
