Comedian- The duct-taped banana art sensation hits meme market


Recommended Posts

Maurizo Catellan’s “Comedian” has to be one of the most unique and controversial art works of all time. A duct-taped banana initially displayed at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2019 which quickly went viral as a reminder of how absurd the contemporary art market can get. Initially priced at $120,000 during the first display and is estimated to sell for $1m to $1.5m at Sotheby’s New York art auctions and sales.

Comedian’s attention is undeniable, this traction has now trickled down to the meme market following the launch of Comedian on Solana blockchain with the ticker $BAN. 

…but is $BAN worth investing in? 

As with other cryptocurrencies and more particularly memecoins, the possibility of high volality cannot be overlooked, hence investors must apply all risk management rules.

For what it is worth, $BAN is currently trading around $0.02 on Bitget, and the upcoming auction of the original artwork “Comedian” at Sotheby’s is expected to draw intense media coverage and public interest, possibily driving the price of the token. 

Anyone else thinks it is perhaps a good time for meme lovers to key in before the frenzy wanes?

    • It’s interesting to see the excitement building around Legend of Arcadia, especially now that $ARCA is live on major CEXs with bullish momentum. The recent buzz could very well be tied to the bullish price upon listing and events like PoolX and CandyBomb on exchanges like Bitget, which usually bring more visibility and engagement. It’ll be worth watching to see if this momentum leads to wider GameFi adoption or if it’s just pre-launch hype.
    • In times of inflation, it's clear that traditional savings can lose value quickly, so looking for ways to protect or even grow your money becomes important. A lot of people naturally think of investing in assets like commodities or stocks, which are popular options, but there are other approaches that can help as well. One option is to explore side gigs or freelance work, where you can make money now rather than waiting for long-term investments to pay off. With inflation affecting costs, it can be helpful to have multiple streams of income.
    • Seems Bitget strategic partnership with Ton ecosystem is paying off as Bitget Wallet Lite mini, hits more than 6 million users in 3 days. On Oct. 31, the exchange announced the official launch of Bitget Wallet Lite, a multichain wallet integrated into Telegram, allowing users to buy, store and send crypto within the app. Few months ago, the exchange launches $20M TON ecosystem fund and also TON network secures $30M investment from Bitget and Foresight Ventures, this led the wallet to surpass Metamask in adoption rate. Some users have shown preference to the wallet as compared to Okx and Binance wallet, could it be the friendly nature or ease to connect Ton project? A recent study shows that the wallet impressive growth cut across emerging markets like Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East, could it be the surge in Ton project that is responsible for this feat? The study also claims that the wallet support for over 100 blockchains, and a wide array of DApps, makes the wallet appealing to a global audience. It further claimed that the wallet support for DEX trading, including features like zero gas fees in certain transactions and instant trading modes could be responsible for the surge in users. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitget-wallet-telegram-6-million-users-three-days
