Tron founder Justin Sun bought the famed banana duct-taped to the wall sculpture for $6.2 million at Sotheby’s after six minutes of bidding.

On Nov. 21, Justin Sun posted about his recent Sotheby’s purchase, Maurizio Cattelan’s work of art “Comedian” which is simply a lone banana taped to a wall using a strip of duct-tape.

“This is not just an artwork; it represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community,” Sun wrote.

TRON creator also revealed that he plans to “eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place in both art history and popular culture.”

Upon purchasing the sculpture, Sun received a certificate of authenticity that gives him the right to showcase the piece as an official artwork. Sotheby’s also gave Sun a starter kit for the sculpture, consisting of a banana, a roll of duct tape and a detailed instruction manual on how the piece should be presented.
