Flipboard News Desk<p>Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun hit headlines over the past couple of weeks because he paid $6.2 million for an art installation of a banana, then ate it. But <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://threads.net/@realjuddlegum/" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>realjuddlegum</span></a></span> says there's a far more important reason you should know his name. On Nov. 25, he purchased $30 million in crypto tokens from Donald Trump's World Liberty Financial, saying his company, TRON, was committed to "making America great again." </p><p>"Any foreign national paying an incoming president $18 million weeks before entering the White House should raise red flags. Sun's purchase is even more alarming because the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is currently prosecuting him for fraud," writes Legum.

Flipboard Art & Photo Desk<p>Update: Man eats banana! On Friday, crypto investor Justin Sun took two bites from his $6.2 million banana at a press conference in Hong Kong on Friday. “Eating it at a press conference can also become a part of the artwork's history,” he said, likening the conceptual work to NFTs and blockchain-based art. “Most of its objects and ideas exist as intellectual property and on the internet, as opposed to something physical.” </p><p>The banana had been purchased for $0.35 from Shah Alam, a 74-year-old Bangladeshi immigrant who works at a stall outside Sotheby's, New York. Sun pledged via X to buy 100,000 bananas from the stall, believing Alam to be the owner, which he is not —&nbsp;he is a shift worker and makes $12 an hour.
