Bitcoin billing integration plugin for Oxwall software.

Requirements
==================

* PHP 5.4+
* ext-gmp (GNU Multiple Precision extension
)
* ext-mcrypt (Encrypting extension)
* ext-json (JavaScript Object Notation extension)
* ext-curl (Client URL Library extension)
* Oxwall cron job should be configured


Configuring plugin
==================

All you need to configure the plugin is a valid bitcoin address to receive money from your customers.
After installing this plugin, specify your bitcoin address in the settings page at the address http://yourdomain.com/admin/bitcoin.



In order to get bitcoin address, copy it from your bitcoin wallet. If you do not have a bitcoin wallet installed, then, please first check the list of software available on this page https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet. Personally, we recommend you to use Multibit HD or Mycelium as most simple and user-friendly ones.

After you have specified a bitcoin address to receive money in the plugin settings the users will be able to pay for goods on your site just like they do with PayPal or any other payment gateway available for Oxwall.

Please note that in order for your Bitcoin payments work properly you need to make sure that Oxwall cron job set up correctly.
How to configure cron job read at the following link: https://docs.oxwall.org/install:cron


How does the bitcoin-plugin work?
========================

Every time the user initiates a payment, the plugin generates a new temporary bitcoin address and asks the user to send the required amount to this address. After the user did the money transfer system sends money to your bitcoin address that you specified in the plugin settings and marks purchase as completed.

To obtain address balance and transaction history plugin uses public API of third-party services known as "Block explorers" such as blockcypher.com or blockchain.info.

Has there been success with this plugin?

Are there any known issues? I see there has not been any chats or reviews in the past few years...
