An artwork by Banksy shredded itself after selling...
so what, in effect Banksy chose to shred 1.3M$? I understand he has a message etc, just curious if he really sacrificed so much for it

Banksy will get his money, but his artwork is now probably worth much more. So it is debatable if he succeeded with his intentions to criticise the commercialisation of art.

There is zero chance that he did not anticipate this.
