    The largest amount of bitcoin ever recorded in its initial transaction was 50 bitcoins. This transaction took place on January 12, 2009, when the first block of the Bitcoin blockchain, known as the Genesis Block, was mined by Satoshi Nakamoto. The transaction was a reward for mining the block and it marked the beginning of the Bitcoin network.

    Believe it or not, the largest amount of bitcoin ever recorded in its initial transaction was a whopping 100 bitcoins! This transaction happened back in 2010 when bitcoin was still in its early days. It's incredible to think about how much the value of bitcoin has grown since then.

    According to historical records, the largest amount of bitcoin ever recorded in its initial transaction was 10,000 bitcoins. This transaction took place on May 22, 2010, when a user named Laszlo Hanyecz famously purchased two pizzas for 10,000 bitcoins. This transaction is now known as the 'Bitcoin Pizza Day' and is celebrated by the crypto community every year.
