abs continues to maintain its dominant position. If this goes on, should I retire the word abs from the rankings, making it SN's first word emeritus? @realBitcoinDog

Each word is allocated sats from zaps based on its relative frequency of appearance in posts and comments
| Word | Frequency | Sats |
| caught | 55 | 100,477 |
| bitcoin | 6,084 | 39,024 |
| sats | 2,021 | 9,457 |

TBH, I have no idea why caught was the highest earning word this month. Does anyone have a clue?
Best time to post on Stacker NewsBest time to post on Stacker News
Ever thought about timing your posts for engagement? C'mon, I know you have. Well, wonder no more because I've done an analysis of zap amounts and item counts by time-of-week.
Based on this analysis, it seems like 8AM - 9AM CST M-Th may be the best time to post. That's a bit too early for me, who lives on the West Coast. When are we getting scheduled posts again? Also, remember: once a strategy becomes widely known, its effectiveness may diminish. So consider experimenting with different posting times to find what works best for you!
Anyway, hope you enjoyed this edition of Stacker News Monthly! Remember, stay humble and stack sats.
Dang, ~Stacker_Sports almost caught ~bitcoin last month
I predict ~Stacker_Sports will catch ~bitcoin eventually.
At least every once in a while
Oh, I mean it will catch for forever - mark my word on it.
My favorite word is still ‘AI’? The quoted text isn’t mine! Ahahah
To be fair, it does mean you're posting a lot about AI, ~lol
Another solid month stackers!
Comment/post on ~Stacker_Stocks is amazing. It shows SN is not niche to Bitcoin only.
@k00b I thought that these SN account settings mean something
I really do not want to be mentioned in ANY stats.
I'm sure SimpleStacker would honor a request to not be included in his research
Did you provide the SN database to be researched for these stats?
No, Stacker News Monthly is produced using publicly available information on posts and comments, which includes the poster and the zap amount. "Hide me from top stackers" only controls what SN chooses to display, but it can't prevent other users from collecting public-facing information from the site and presenting it.
ok. please do not mention me anymore in your stats.
Ok, I won't include you in future editions
Your posts and comments are still visible, as are the zaps on them. That's not the same thing as where you'd rank on top stackers.
I don't care. I do not want to be mentioned in ANY stats. And I think I read in SN T&C that is necessary my consent to be published.
You have to ask nicely then or stop posting under your nym.
I'd rather not posting at all than using an alt.
