This sounds like an interesting way to disseminate a lot of incorrect "facts" very quickly with almost no traceability.

You mean like a chain letter? Usually, incorrect "facts" aren't incentivizing enough on their own to keep sharing them, which is why most of those viral memes spread quickly and die out quickly.

I was thinking more in terms of a long-term commitment that provides enough benefits on its own to offset the time and effort spent by each participant on spreading it to others.
