Recall that on November 21, it was reported that an installation by artist Maurizio Cattelan, a banana taped to a wall, was sold at a Sotheby's auction for $6.2 million. The modern work of art was bought by Chinese crypto entrepreneur and collector Justin Sun. At that time, in his account on the social network X, he called the artwork a cultural phenomenon that "bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community," and announced plans to eat the banana soon as part of a "unique artistic experience," paying homage to its significance in both art history and pop culture. It turns out that the businessman kept his promise.
