Justin Sun, founder of the Tron blockchain, made headlines by eating a banana from Maurizio Cattelan’s infamous Comedian artwork, purchased for USD 6.2 million at auction. During a press conference in Hong Kong, Sun humorously declared the banana “better than other bananas.” The duct-taped fruit installation has been a subject of global fascination since its debut in 2019. Sun stated that eating the banana was a performance intended to add to the artwork’s legacy. While the banana is frequently replaced in exhibitions, Sun also received a guide on maintaining the piece. Previously, others, including performance artist David Datuna, ate versions of the artwork, but Sun’s multimillion-dollar bid set his act apart. Cryptocurrency Hacking: Two Crypto Firms Linked to Justin Sun Lose USD 115 Million After Hack, Says Report.
