The artwork consists of a regular store-bought banana stuck to a wall with duct tape. It sold in New York for four times the estimated sales price.
Tron founder Justin Sun paid $6.2 million at a New York auction for an art piece consisting of a banana taped to a wall. Now, he plans to eat it.
“I’ve bought the banana,” Sun wrote in a Nov. 21 X post. “This is not just an artwork; it represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community.”
“In the coming days, I will personally eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience,” he added.
