Crypto billionaire eats Banana he bought for Rs 52 crore in
auction, here's 'Art catch' to the price -
Tron Crypto founder Justin Sun recently purchased Maurizio Cattelan’s iconic work – a banana for $6 million (approximately Rs 52.4 crore). The crypto founder then said that he plans to eat the banana soon. The entrepreneur has now taken a bite of the fruit at one of Hong Kong’s most luxurious hotels, surrounded by dozens of journalists and influencers eager to witness the unique
moment.
‘Most expensive fruit in the world’
The banana art work was sold at a Sotheby’s auction in New York on November 20. Called ‘Comedian’, the art work features a banana stuck to a wall with duct tape. Named ‘most expensive fruit in the world’ by the New York Times, it has sparked widespread debate within the art world, with some hailing it as a clever satirical statement. Others dismiss it as a reflection of “foolishness” among artists, collectors, dealers, and critics.
