I do like some of your pepe cards, I'm taking copies for my own collection, you can't really prevent people making exact copies of your digital assets, that's a big impediment to digital items becoming collectibles. You can't prevent me enjoying your digital property anymore than Hollywood can, my pepe cards look exactly the same as your ones do! I don't need to 'own' them to enjoy them just as much as you do, so why would I ever buy them from you ?

Is there a block explorer for these pepe cards, can I check a wallet address and see all the images in that wallet? By definition anything digital can be copied, so how are they rare exactly?

You can use RarePepeWallet.com to setup your own wallet and see all the cards. You can also check out what other people have in their wallet.

PEPECASH and the RARE PEPE cards are counterparty assets backed by the Bitcoin Blockchain. This is what allows them to not be copied and keeps them rare. Say a Rare Pepe card has an issuance of 100 total cards created. That number will never be increased. If 100 people each own 1 of those cards, another person can't obtain the card without one of the 100 current holders selling it. Each card is associated to a token that is traded between people.

Yes, I guess you can just go copy the .jpg image and save it to your computer, but it's not the same thing. That is a very childish thought. That's like saying I can go print a copy of the Mona Lisa on a piece of canvas and say that I own the Mona Lisa... it's not real or authentic, it's just a fake copy that's not worth anything and can be proven to be fake. The token/asset behind the card/art is what gives it it's value and authenticity. If you hold the asset, then you hold the value.
