6.24 million dollars for a banana?

A banana taped to a wall (pictured) sold Wednesday night at Sotheby's in New York for $6.24 million (5.80 million euros). The winner of the bidding will receive a banana, a roll of tape, a certificate of authenticity and installation instructions. Cattelan admitted that he bought the banana from a local grocery store for about 30 cents. The winner of the bidding is Justin Sun, founder of the cryptocurrency platform Tron. "This is not just a work of art, it represents a cultural phenomenon that connects art, memes and the cryptocurrency community," insisted Sun. < br > < img src = "https://flash-scdn.jin10.com/92db0617-085d-4817-8a6b-fb9720954cc4.png" referrerpolicy = "no-referrer" >
