Biggest opportunity: “automatic cryptocurrency exchange”, “bitcoin” and “bitcoin cash” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance 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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.35, well behind 6.8.

Directory rank

Ranked about #50,200 to #69,500, alongside the other plugins with fewer than 10 installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.

Update activity

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

Release cadence

No release in a year
from wp.org release tags

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

    This is the opposites on the firs stage i met by applying for merchant account 🙁 -24/7 live support- “Customer Service; We apologize for keeping you waiting. Our operators are busy at the moment, please leave us a message with your email address and we’ll get back to you shortly.” -It supports a wide range of cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Litecoin, Monero, Ripple, Zcash, Zcash Classic, Zcoin and their number is constantly being expanded. – The process of creating a merchant account is quick and free: 10-20 min if they approve your application form and Corp. docs – It requires only an email and a password without any verification. Multimodal (face, eye and voice): requires Your contact Details, Business Details, Model Details, Company Documents, Bank Account details, turnover, monthly deposits, back history – with no annoying passwords or CAPTCHAs: Does Not Meet GDPR Requirements – All transactions are safe and secure as they are done over SSL secured endpoints: Couldn’t find PCI or SSL certificates – Iswipe provides 0.9% commission for payments and 0% exchange fees: in merchant account stating- 1% + 10c Transaction Fee, $50,000 Charge Limit, 7 Days Settlement Delay >>>>> This is the opposites on the firs stage i met by applying for merchant account 🙁 This topic was modified 7 years, 11 months ago by gooldenfrog.
