The founder of the Tron (TRX) blockchain is making headlines for eating a famously controversial piece of art.

After winning Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan’s art piece “Comedian” last week in a Sotheby’s art auction for $6.2 million, Justin Sun made good on his promise today to eat the art installation, which was a banana duct-taped to a wall.

Last week, Sun announced winning the art auction and his plans for the piece.

“I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve bought the banana!!!

I am Justin Sun, and I’m excited to share that I have successfully acquired Maurizio Cattelan’s iconic work, Comedian for $6.2 million. This is not just an artwork; it represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community. I believe this piece will inspire more thought and discussion in the future and will become a part of history. I am honored to be the proud owner of the banana and look forward to it sparking further inspiration and impact for art enthusiasts around the world.

Additionally, in the coming days, I will personally eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place in both art history and popular culture. Stay tuned!”

According to a BBC report, Sun is not the first person to eat the banana, though he is the first person to pay to do so.

Said Sun of his historic consumption,

“Eating it at a press conference can also become a part of the artwork’s history. It’s much better than other bananas.”
