Experiment
Accessible earning rate & task supply on Userfeel under operator constraints
Blocked
Why
Decision
TEST Userfeel as Phase C micro-pay field experiment for Decision→Result→Learning loop.
Why now
Highest TTF ranking in alt-paid research; needed a controllable earning experiment.

01What We Believed
Hypothesis
At least 1 approved paid task in 7 days with measurable effective hourly rate
Prediction
{
"qualify_within_48h": true,
"tasks_completed_in_7d": 2,
"approved_paid_tasks_min": 1,
"predicted_effective_hourly_usd": 12,
"predicted_gross_earnings_7d_usd": 20,
"predicted_friction": "medium"
}Success criteria
approved_paid_tasks >= 1 effective_hourly_usd recorded friction notes recorded
Action
Sign up at Userfeel as tester Pass unpaid qualification Accept available tests within attention budget (max ~60–90 min total over 7 days) Record each attempt

03What Changed
Learning
Platform access / signup friction dominated; published rates never became testable
Reality
Believed published rates were quickly accessible. Reality: registration/email verification blocked before earning. Updated model: TTF must include signup/access friction (LEARNING-001).
