Biggest opportunity: Swap “bitcoin” for “bitcoin calculator”. “bitcoin” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “bitcoin calculator” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 10 of 6.1K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,188 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.7.41, well behind 6.8.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

Hello, I need this plugin on a website with two languages. Is the plugin tranlatable? Thanks.

This is code theft of an original version I made and still maintain. The code in this plugin will not work as-is using blockchain.info due to “Global Reach, LLC” (Who is the same person as “isnickl” btw – trying to boost his own rating) re-using old code that belonged to me (still has my name on it) and simply re-styled it for his own website. This old code has a bug which is exposed in 3.9 and causes thousands of requests to fire off rapidly in the dashboard, thus getting your IP banned within a matter of days. The process to get your IP unbanned is cumbersome and this is why I have since improved the original plugin to use a more robust API source (and eliminated the rapid requests from within the dashboard).
