At the Sotheby's auction for $6.2 million, Maurizio Cattelan's work called "The Comedian" was sold - it is a banana taped to a white wall.

Initially, the banana was valued at more than a million dollars. But Chinese crypto-entrepreneur and art collector Justin Sun bid the most, beating out six competitors.

Sun called the installation a “cultural phenomenon” that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community. In the near future, he will eat a banana "as part of this unique artistic experience" to honor his place in art history and popular culture.🍌🫠 ❗Justin Sun fulfilled his promise and ate a taped banana he bought at auction for $6.2 million.
