#BTCvsMarkets Shortly after the Chinese crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun bought Maurizio Cattelan's Comedian (2019) for an astonishing $6.2m last week at Sotheby's New York, he wrote on X of his intention to eat the banana component of the conceptual work.

Sun fulfilled his promise today at a press conference held at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong, taking two bites out of the world's most expensive banana. “Eating it at a press conference can also become a part of the artwork's history,” he said, likening the conceptual work to NFTs and blockchain-based art. “Most of its objects and ideas exist as intellectual property and on the internet, as opposed to something physical.”

Sun said he felt “disbelief” when he made the winning bid, beating out other crypto collectors Ryan Zurrer and Cozomo de’Medici.
