Welcome to this month's edition of Stacker News Monthly! Today we're going to take a look back at the month of March 2026!
This month, 473 stackers wrote 766,923 words across 2,004 posts and 12,913 comments, earning a total of 2,118,503 sats, for an average of 2.76 sats per word, and 3.54 sats per word on posts.
New feature for this month's edition of Stacker News Monthly! I'm now starting to track each stacker's favorite territory, based on number of items they made in each territory this month.

Looks like @Solomonsatoshi has a new pet peeve to complain about this month. But, he's probably not the only one riled up right now about the good ol' US of A.

No surprises here. Usual suspects in the top spot.

~Stacker_Sports continues its dominance of the most comments category.

iran seems to be dominating a lot of the discussion this month. Not a surprise.
Most DownzappedMost Downzapped

| ~bitcoin | 23,892 | 306 | 78 | bitcoin |
| ~Christianity | 21,434 | 12 | 1,786 | iran |
~econ being the most downzapped is likely due to someone continuously targetting a certain someone else. I don't know why iran is the top word in ~Christianity, but I suppose there were some end-times or religiously controversial posts going around?

Nothing too unusual about the most highly zapped words this month.
Unfortunately, I couldn't think of a fun thing to do with the data this month. (Partly, it's because I've been to busy to devote too much time to thinking about it.) If you have any ideas on cool things to try, let me know!
Anyway, hope you enjoyed this edition of Stacker News Monthly! Remember, stay humble and stack sats.
What good amount of data you have here.
Whats
abs?a chart showing the evolution about the use of these top word from each SNM. You mentioned some differences between other months from other topics. I’m curious about the standard curve.
Counting references worlds or just his own?
I suggest @Scoresby should henceforth be referred to as Mr. Bitcoin.
Also, how in the hell was my favorite word "arthur"? I can't even recall when I would have written that.
Bitcoin is pretty interesting.
"Bitcoin is pretty interesting."
-Mr. Bitcoin
I have no idea what this is about, but...
Oh, haha. I forgot that I posted a transcript of that aeronautic comedy sketch.
Finally, 'ai' isn't my favorite word anymore! ahahah
"read" "econ" is a subliminal message I approve of. Well done.
Strong effort by Me. As I try to wind down my SN consumption.
Sadge, real sadge
@Undisciplined
Yeeee-haaaaaw! nice month altogether... I'm glad, too, to be this downzapped! Means I'm touching a nerve eh
Great work and interesting.
Yes genocide and war crimes can be rather peeving!
Can we see who is the top downzapper?
Are they spending real money (sats) or CC shitcoins?
Next months sats are going to be interesting as downzapping on this post alone probably exceeds all downzaps seen in March!
#1464032
Who is the sly Zionist apologist downzapper who does not want stackers to know about The Greater Israel Project?
I can't build statistics on top downzappers because I don't have access to data on individual users' zaps. It's also why I can't construct stats on something like top lurkers (zaps a lot but doesn't post a lot)
All good - you do well with what data is available.
Ooo I like this graphic. It caught my eye and didn't let go
