The gentleman in the original has been replaced with Pepe, the butterfly has been changed to a Bitcoin logo with wings, the date has been changed to the issuance date of the token, and the price has been replaced with the artist's name.
The New Yorker is an American magazine featuring journalism, commentary, criticism, essays, fiction, satire, cartoons, and poetry. It was founded on February 21, 1925, by Harold Ross and his wife Jane Grant, a reporter for The New York Times. Together with entrepreneur Raoul H. Fleischmann, they established the F-R Publishing Company and set up the magazine's first office in Manhattan. Ross remained the editor until his death in 1951.
The New Yorker is published 47 times annually, with five of these issues covering two-week spans. It is well known for its illustrated and often topical covers.

This is a pepefied version of Nyan Cat which is an animated GIF created on April 2, 2011 by then 25-year-old Christopher Torres of Dallas, Texas, who uses the name "prguitarman" on his website LOL-Comics.
Torres explained in an interview where the idea for the animation came from: "I was doing a donation drive for the Red Cross and in-between drawings in my Livestream video chat, two different people mentioned I should draw a 'Pop Tart' and a 'cat'." In response, he created a hybrid image of a Pop-Tart and a cat, which was developed a few days later into the animated GIF.
Three days later (April 5, 2011) YouTube user saraj00n uploaded a video that combined the GIF with a Japanese pop song. The video ranked at number five on the list of most viewed YouTube videos in 2011.
The artist of the Rare Pepe card added in some 8 bit graphics, RPG icons, and ASCII art to give the card an old-school feel. At the bottom right in nearly illegible text, it reads "Nyanyanyanyanpepepepepepepepe" which is a nod to the original song "Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya!" which was uploaded to the Japanese video site Niconico in July of 2010.
The Japanese word nya (にゃ) is onomatopoeic, imitating the call of a cat (equivalent to English "meow").

@DefiantLs It wasn't missed! Doesn't anyone remember when Biden slipped up during a speech and said he had cancer and they spent days covering it up by saying he misspoke?!
