This pizza is not "worth" $750,000, it simply cost that much in terms of delayed value of bitcoins.

Exactly. By this same logic, anyone who bought a Babe Ruth baseball card in 1933 for pennies is the winner in terms of percentage of delayed value increase:

Does it state anywhere in the article that it is?

It was the original title of both the linked article and the HN headline. ("This Pizza is worth $750,000")
