Frightening Pepe/Homer Simpson trading card sells for a ridiculous amount

As if we needed more proof that monetary value is arbitrary and capitalism is based on a lie we all choose to believe, a digital Pepe the Frog trading card was just sold at an IRL auction for some serious cash.

The one-of-a-kind Homer Pepe sold to the auction's lucky winner for 350,000 in the digital currency PepeCash. At the time of sale, that amounted to freaking $39,000. 

Homer Pepe is just like Homer Simpson. But, ya know, frighteningly green with a Pepe smile. To top it off, the beloved cartoon character turned monster is positioned on a background of Simpson clouds!
