Remark
A similar inequality was proved under weaker assumptions by Sergei Bernstein in 1937.
Hoeffding proved this result for independent variables rather than martingale differences, and also observed that slight modifications of his argument establish the result for martingale differences (see page 18 of his 1963 paper).
