Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun on Friday fulfilled a promise he made after spending $6.2 million on an artwork featuring a banana duct-taped to a wall -- by eating the fruit.
Yeah you put them in the ground and then the flowers bloom on the tap root that comes out the end of the banana. They are then fertilised by earth worms and once the bananas ripen you then pull them out as the bunch we all know and love.
You’re mad at the wrong person. He only has a banana. The banana “artist” has $6.2 million now. Why aren’t they helping kids with cancer? I suggest you go yell at them.
Do you think someone spends $6.2 million on fruit if they don’t have an extra few million? He had $6.2 million at MINIMUM, and he chose to eat a banana instead of healing children.
I think it’s perfectly fair to be mad at a person for the actions they took.
According to this great reporting by Protos, he holds over $580,000,000 in just Bitcoin, with tens (and sometimes hundreds) of millions in other assets, like TRON (the coin you can see promoted on the side of his microphone in the article’s photo) which is a clone of the Ethereum blockchain he made by simply copying the code, artificially lowering fees, then publishing it as if he created it.
Not only is he a rich douchebag, but he’s also a plagiarist.
It’s even worse than that. The banana isn’t the actual thing valued at that price. It’s the exhibit, an abstract arbitrary concept. The banana and duct tape get replaced periodically. This person is just eating a banana for the attention.
I’ll never understand spending that money like that instead of helping kids with cancer.
Probably one of the several reasons why I am not rich.
You know spending money doesn’t make it vanish into the air right? Someone else has the 6.2 million, and it can still help kids with cancer.
But it wont.
I never thought I’d ever see someone argue against helping kids with cancer DIRECTLY when we have excess in the palm our hands, and yet here we are.
So you’re saying he should have wasted that banana when there’s children starving in Africa?
No you plant the banana and let it multiply so you can dig them up in the warm season and feed many
Sadly, that’s not how bananas work.
Yeah you put them in the ground and then the flowers bloom on the tap root that comes out the end of the banana. They are then fertilised by earth worms and once the bananas ripen you then pull them out as the bunch we all know and love.
Bananas are weird trees, not under the ground. Just in case you aren’t just talking shit for fun.
wtf alien banana are you talking about

Some gifter who managed to convince the world that a banana was worth 6.2 million dollars has that money. They won’t be helping anyone but themselves.
I hope crypto-bro stole that 6.2 million from a cartel, and his next video involves people with machetes showing him how they feel about it.
You seriously wishing death on someone for eating a banana?

Same argument about wasting 44 billion to buy twitter.
A useless website exchanged hands.
Someone still has the money, why dont they spend it on the poor?
It’s usually an investment. Or in this case: a publicity stunt.
