A cryptocurrency entrepreneur who had bought a piece of conceptual art consisting of a simple banana, duct-taped to a wall, for $6.2 million last week ate the fruit in Hong Kong on Friday.

Justin Sun, founder of cryptocurrency platform TRON, bought the banana artwork during a Sotheby's art auction in New York last week.

The vendor who sold the banana received only a quarter for the fruit. The buyer of the conceptual work has offered his stand a bigger payday, but logistical problems may be in the way.
