Biggest opportunity: Swap “cryptocurrency” for “crypto payments”. “cryptocurrency” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “crypto payments” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.9%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 220.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,168 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 5 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

We have been using Blockonomics WordPress Bitcoin Payments plugin on our website to collect Bitcoin payments over the past 2 years. This is the best plugin available out there which sends payments directly to our own wallet in real-time. This is a great piece of art and an amazing plugin which everyone should use to collect payments via Bitcoin. We would like to give 10 stars but only 5 stars are available. Keep up the good work and best of luck!

Nice plugin for crypto payments, although I’ve found FCFpay plugin to be easier and allows for direct offramp to fiat.

I cannot say enough good things about their support. I was having an issue (which turned out to be a firewall block problem) and they solved my issue quickly. The built in testing is a very nice feature and the initial setup was super simple. I highly recommend this plugin!
