Founder and entrepreneur Justin Sun finally ate the banana he bought a few days ago at auction for the fantastic sum of $6.2 million. This trendy piece of art was part of the collection "Comedian" by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan.
Despite the fact that the crypto enthusiast ate the banana, this does not mean he lost the art object as such, since he has a certificate of authenticity for it.
Thus, he can replace the fruit at any moment, as the value lies in how the object is established and its proof of authenticity.
Justin Sun also commented on a piece by The New York Times about the fruit vendor Shah Alam, from whose kiosk the banana was bought for $0.25. The businessman reported that he purchased 100,000 bananas from him for $25,000 in appreciation for such a delicious and healthy fruit.
After the crypto enthusiast bought the fruit, heated debates flared up in the community about whether it was worth spending several million dollars on the purchase of a single banana, and whether it would have been better to spend it on more noble causes.
