Justin Sun, founder of Tron, a layer-1 blockchain, recently ate the banana he purchased for $6.24 million at a Sotheby’s contemporary art auction in New York. The banana was part of Maurizio Cattelan’s 2019 artwork “Comedian,” which features a duct-taped banana and has become a popular meme. Sun explained that the banana was much better than regular ones and drew parallels between conceptual art and cryptocurrency.
Two Solana meme coins based on the artwork have also been created.
