Gushiken YonaJustin Sun, founder of Tron and a well-known figure in the crypto world, made headlines again by eating a $6.2 million banana artwork during a livestream. The artwork, Comedian by Maurizio Cattelan, gained fame for its simple yet provocative design—a banana duct-taped to a wall.
Sun, who purchased the artwork in 2021, turned the act of eating it into a live performance. The spectacle underscores his flair for blending art, cryptocurrency, and culture in unexpected ways. Alongside this bold gesture, Sun announced he would distribute 100,000 bananas worldwide for free, sourced from Shah Alam, a fruit vendor in New York’s Upper East Side, whose bananas were integral to the artwork.
The event has reignited conversations about value, both in art and cryptocurrency. By consuming the banana, Sun added a new layer of meaning to Comedian while connecting it to everyday life.
