This is a bit random, but here we go.. 

 

In a bizarre twist of events, World of Warcraft gold is now worth more than the real-world currency of Venezuela, the Bolivar.

In a surprising turn of events, the online currency used in Blizzard’s popular MMORPG World of Warcraft is now worth more than the Venezuelan bolivar. What’s more, according to sites tracking the individual currencies, the gap between the two is only growing larger.

The shocking revelation was first noticed by user KalebPrime on Twitter. They posted a comparison of the price of a World of Warcraft token to that of Venezuelan currency on the black market (the most used method of currency exchange, according to NPR).

I'm sure the Horde is doing just fine. I don't know about the Alliance though. Granted Blizzard writers won't do another retcon. 

There is more that meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside

Too bad gold is worthless nowadays. Everyone seems to have millions.

soo.... this means Venezuela's minimum wage will now be in WoWG rather than VeBs. Working in Venezuela is now literally gold farming.
