A commuter who held $5 in Bitcoin (BTC) as a tip for his pizza delivery services has reportedly resurfaced after seven years.

According to a post from Redditor btcbible, the Bitcoiner ordered a pizza on Dec. 28, 2013 and gave the delivery driver two options for his tip: a $5 neb, or 0.0069 BTC on a paper wallet. The value was roughly the aforementioned at the time, given the toll of the crypto nugget was $774.

However, the driver reportedly contacted btcbible this week for aid on getting the funds into a hot wallet. With Bitcoin's recent rise to a new all-time high of more than $58,000, the BTC is now worth roughly $400, an increase of more than vii,000% since the pizza was delivered hot.

"I let the pizza guy cull between $5 in fiat or BTC," said btcbible. "Needless to say, he chose wisely. I've responded with instructions on how to import the private key via Electrum."

The Redditor clarified that they were "not Bitcoin rich," having liquidated the bulk of their funds concluding yr to buy a habitation. The Redditor said at the time that the commuter "had heard of bitcoin from the news and grasped the full general concept of information technology" but was "plain nevertheless very new to it."

The Reddit postal service is a reminder of one of the most iconic stories in the crypto space from Bitcoin's beginnings. The first documented commercial purchase using BTC was an order for two pizzas in May 2010, when a programmer paid 10,000 BTC — now worth roughly $580 million — for a Bitcoin Talk forum user to transport him two pies from a Papa John'south shop in the Us.

The nearly recent Reddit post says that btcbible gave the delivery driver 0.05 BTC, or roughly $2,900 at the time of publication. Cointelegraph reached out to the Redditor for annotate, but did not receive a reply.
