Special screenings of “The New Rules of Bitcoin” will be held in major US cities to celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day on May 22. The short film presents three core ideas: Bitcoin is not what you think, Bitcoin is long term thinking, and Bitcoin is true ownership. The screenings connect these themes to Bitcoin’s history, including the first documented real-world transaction on May 22, 2010, when 10,000 bitcoin were used to buy two pizzas. Unchained and Bitcoin Park are running “The New Rules of Bitcoin Roadshow,” providing local meetups with a free screening kit, a discussion primer, and pizza sponsorship for the first 100 meetups to encourage peer-to-peer adoption.
"Bitcoin Pizza Day is a reminder that adoption happens peer-to-peer. Every new bitcoiner was, at some point, brought in by another bitcoiner. We made this film with The Atlantic to give the community a tool to share Bitcoin with a new audience, and to help people who are still unsure about bitcoin to give it another look. And the roadshow is the platform to help bring about the next wave of adopters."
"The film highlights three core ideas: Bitcoin is not what you think, Bitcoin is long term thinking, and Bitcoin is true ownership. These ideas lay the groundwork for Bitcoin's distinction from other cryptocurrencies, with its unique blend of long-term wealth preservation and direct, collaborative custody."
"On May 22, 2010, a programmer paid 10,000 bitcoin for two large pizzas to be delivered to his home in the first documented real-world bitcoin transaction. An amount worth around $760 million today, highlighting Bitcoin's incredible rise to become a mainstream global asset."
"Through The New Rules of Bitcoin Roadshow, Unchained and Bitcoin Park are equipping local meetups with a free screening kit, a discussion primer, and pizza sponsorship for the first 100 meetups- bringing Bitcoin's story to communities face-to-face, just like on the original Pizza Day."
