Eight years ago, on May 22, 2010, American programmer Laszlo Hanyecz bought a pizza worth $25 with 10,000 bitcoins. This was the first bitcoin transaction in the real world and the first price of bitcoin.
Now when we talk about this matter, we mostly lament how valuable these coins are today, and Laszlo missed the opportunity to become a billionaire. But for the industry, this event is an important symbol and an indispensable milestone. From this point of view, this pizza is really worth it.
And now, we ordinary people also have the opportunity to send out such a "meaningful" pizza. Next, we will talk about the pizza donation activity initiated by PizzaDAO.
On the afternoon of March 15th, RarePizzas auctioned 10,000 pizza NFTs and successfully raised $500,000 (218 ETH) within 5 hours. As a result, on May 22nd, RarePizzas will use the proceeds for free Send 10,000 pizzas to "passers-by" all over the world.
RarePizzas also due to"The world's first edible NFT"Attracted many investors, some even bought 39 pizza NFTs in one go.

Originated from Clubhouse, won"support"support
The origin of PizzaDAO is really "DAO". Allegedly, it actually started with a casual remark in the Clubhouse chat room at the end of February. Its catchphrase is wonderful, called"Pizza Shud B Free!"The starting point is to hold a performance art on Bitcoin Pizza Day on May 22. By selling 10,000 unique digital pizza NFTs, it will fund pizzerias around the world and distribute 10,000 physical pizzas to passers-by.
The second gimmick is that RarePizzas will become"The world's first edible NFT"。
This combination of celebrating "traditional festivals in the circle" and fashionable asset tokenization quickly attracted more than 300 artists and more than 30 developers from all over the world to join, and was named"Pizza Mafia"Global organization support.

From pizza recipes to packaging boxes, how to ensure the randomness and uniqueness of NFT?
PizzaDAO believes that this matter is both fun and serious.
Needless to say, it’s fun, the serious part is how to use the most stringent process to ensure the quality of NFT and pizza.
We know that NFT is the abbreviation of non-homogeneous tokens, which requires that these 10,000 NFTs, that is, the corresponding 10,000 pizzas behind them, are unique. Therefore, the team introduced the Chainlink VRF random number oracle to ensure the uniqueness of NFT.
Regarding the attributes, flavors, and toppings of pizza, PizzaDAO will allow users to provide seed values, combined with the private key of the oracle machine, to generate a verifiable random number and corresponding integrity encryption certificate through Chainlink VRF, and publish it on the chain. Users can then independently verify the randomness of the NFT by combining the seed value, the public key of the oracle, and the proof.

Auction situation
These batches of NFTs are issued based on Ethereum, and PizzaDAO is considering listing Polygon in the future to reduce transaction costs for users.
On the afternoon of March 15th, RarePizzas opened the first round of NFT auction, and successfully raised 500,000 US dollars (218 ETH) within 5 hours, easily achieving the first goal of the project, and can donate at least 10,000 to the public for free a pizza. Some players even bought as many as 39 RarePizza in one go.
There are 99 series of RarePizza boxes currently on sale on OpenSea.io. According to the introduction, each version of the box has a cover design, a name and a description.

After eating pizza, what is the use of this NFT?
The difference between RarePizza and other NFTs is that its physical object is time-sensitive. The NFT specifies when the physical pizza will be produced, and the pizza cannot be saved. Once people eat it, this NFT is only commemorative.
This is like a charitable donation, and leaving an NFT looks much better than a donation receipt or proof.
In order to encourage donations (purchase of NFT), RarePizza also stated that it will increase the "practicability" of the NFT through scenarios such as games. The first cooperation case is that the game OpenDive will introduce RarePizza NFT, and users can use tokens to experience the pizza slice game in virtual reality.
In addition to these visible uses, RarePizza believes that this campaign has played a role that goes far beyond the campaign itself.
For example, let the "pizza-eating masses" know about cryptocurrency and the Pizza Festival, let Xiaobai, who participated in donating pizza out of curiosity, install MetaMask for the first time, and complete the first digital currency transaction.
