The Chinese-born cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun made headlines across the world after devouring the $6.2 million banana art he purchased earlier in the month.

Tron ( TRX) blockchain founder and crypto billionaire Justin Sun just ate the world’s most expensive banana. During a news conference in Hong Kong last week, the crypto billionaire ate the fruit displayed in the controversial artwork by Italian visual artist and art prankster Maurizio Cattelan.

Tron founder Justin Sun purchased and ate the infamous "Comedian" banana artwork, sparking debate about the value of art.

Justin Sun walked into the room flanked by his usual entourage of bodyguards and advisers and made his way to the stage. Behind him, a banana was duct taped in position on a white wall. On either side, two blank-faced men in white shirts and black aprons stared into the sea of cameras and smartphones. I wondered what they were thinking.

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

It was revealed by Bloomberg that Sun said that he is not asking or expecting anything in return with his $30 million investment to WLFI, but this timely investment also comes during the upcoming restructuring of the SEC, with Trump axing Commissioner Gary Gensler from his post.

Cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun paid over $6 million for an artwork of a banana duck-taped to a wall. The billionaire kept his promise to eat the very pricey fruit in front of a crowd in Hong Kong.
