I'm a bit late, but me and some friends I met over Reddit built a meme stock exchange in 2017. This was a game that would price meme stocks based on how much engagement some meme (or variants) were getting on social media in realtime. I built the analysis engine (including fuzzy reverse image matching, the social listening workers, and the pricing algorithm) and took the role of "CEO" pitching the technology to investors (there was a b2b marketing play there), organizing ourselves, etc.
It got me my first 6-figure job at a startup the next year, as we weren't able to raise funding or afford to continue running it. We also got a cease and desist from Nasdaq for our awesome name (Nasdanq). It also played a role in getting my current job, as it was a more refined version of the b2b play we were shooting for and the CEO loved the project.
