The Steemit Shared Payout Experiment provided evidence that Steemit is bribery-proof!
The Experiment offered to share the reward of a post for up-votes, with the target to create an incentive to up-vote: true bribery!!
The respective post collected 17 votes only (and 14 comments), leaving the post at a 5 cent total payout. Participants were rewarded with 1 cent each. The organiser of the experiment generously donated 12 cents to cheerfully close the experiment, with all participants receiving a respective souvenir.
The organiser and participants of the experiment were hoping for a larger payout of course. However, their respective disappointment was more than offset by the surprising finding that Steemit is Bribery-Proof!!!
