- [3125822-014](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3125822-014) [empirical/evidenced] *(failure mode)* -- Reddit's upvote system imposes insignificant punishment for voting randomly, and this lack of cost compromises the informational value of an upvote, which is the failure mode a staked validation pool is designed to avoid.

- [3782198-038](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3782198-038) [empirical/evidenced] -- The r/place experiment showed that anonymous groups can self correct: each time a hate symbol such as a swastika appeared on the shared canvas, it was replaced with something more positive.
