why bananas?
When it comes to bananas, most people's first reaction might be the banana artwork that Sun Yuchen bought for $6.2 million. However, many may not know that bananas have been a major internet celebrity for over a decade, ever since the rise of internet culture.
​
What should you do if you want to know the size of something but don't have a ruler? In 2005, a netizen selling televisions gave us an abstract answer.
This netizen brought out a banana: "I don't know how big the screen is, I can't find a tape measure, but I have a banana."
Due to the humor of this post, the photo quickly went viral and sparked widespread imitation, becoming a pop culture symbol.
Starting in 2010, "Banana For Scale" gradually evolved into an internet cultural phenomenon. Using bananas as a measuring tool—whether to measure treasures, landmarks, pets, or even absurdly measuring children's heights—became popular content on social media.
This simple idea, with its universal sense of humor, transcended cultural and linguistic boundaries, becoming a globally recognized MEME symbol.
The cultural symbol of "measuring with bananas" has continued to this day, and recently, Musk also played with this meme, causing bananas to go viral once again !

On November 19, SpaceX's Starship rocket conducted its sixth test flight. While every SpaceX rocket launch always evokes awe and admiration from rocket enthusiasts, this time they had a special topic to discuss.
Near the rocket's wing was a banana sticker, featuring a lively animated banana holding a smaller banana. Using the "banana scale" joke to showcase the rocket and spacecraft was a very humorous and clever way, as it is indeed difficult to gauge the size of the rocket from the photo alone.
This sticker during the Starship test injected unprecedented topicality into the banana MEME. With the Starship launching on November 18, this "space banana" once again became the focus of online discussions. For MEME culture enthusiasts and the blockchain community, this was undoubtedly a highlight moment for bananas as a global IP
