The banana in the art piece, which was titled “Comedian,” was first displayed in 2019. Therefore, it is important to note that the original banana was replaced with a fresh banana every several days. Once the art piece was sold in November 2024, Justin Sun ate the latest banana. None of the other bananas was ever saved, including the original. They were just thrown away, or eaten. Sun could still tape a new banana every week if he wants to. Keep in mind that is wasn’t just Sun who bid on this. There were others who drove the price to $6.2 MM. Was it art to begin with? The beholder and the other bidders said “yes.” Is it performance art to buy it and then eat it? Some would say “yes.” Could we all do more to spend more to help feed under-nourished people around the world? YES! Can we ignore events around us that might be better off ignored completely? Apparently not.
