We also managed to hold 400 concurrent connections of realtime trade and complex queries. The site is free and without ads. We also got a working democracy to decide economic decisions.
I thought of KEK40 as soon as I saw the title.

On a side not, I'm interested in the potential of meme magic although It's completely esoteric and goes against hyper-rational HN spirit ;)

Here is the KEK40 with other composite indices: https://eurokeks.com/indices/kek40 I guess meme are viral cultural references so they have some sort of social cohesion power!
Just finished implementing the national meme markets: https://eurokeks.com/memes/national?country=FR (alpha2 country code)
Looks good and really well done. How much time did you invest into making this?
About 10 days.
Were those full-time? Ten days isn't a long time, in any case. Looks pretty nice.
Thanks, you can get things up and running pretty fast with RoR if you're used to it!
This is fantastic.
Thanks a lot! We're having lots of fun!
Hah, you beat me to it. I was in the conceptual stage of something very similar to this.
Just added Github Oauth for those who requested it.
How will this affect the price of rare pepes?
You can get the PEPE composite index here: https://eurokeks.com/indices/pepe Still a pretty high demand for rare pepes.
Is this related to r/MemeEconomy ?
Started as a coding challenge/joke for /r/MemeEconomy and then took off with european subs.
