Biggest opportunity: “bitcoin”, “bitcoin payment” and “crypto” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 23K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,166 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.
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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.5.24, well behind 7.1.

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.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

How is there multiple reviews of folks saying it doesn’t accept Cardano addresses from multiple months ago and it’s still broken? Yes, it’s nice to have some cryptos that do work, but I’m heavily invested in Cardano and WANT to accept that crypto for payment. It’s a free plugin, which means it wasn’t like rocket science to create. How about the creators of this plugin take pride in what they do and actually fix it so it accepts Cardano addresses. Doesn’t seem all that complicated of a thing to do. This topic was modified 5 years ago by sonofcreation.

I posted the Fatal Error when you click Activate on the developer’s Github, but this appears to be a dead/abandoned project. Hasn’t been touched for months. No response to anything reported. Maybe it’s great. Who knows. It can’t even be activated. This topic was modified 5 years, 3 months ago by camosoul.

It looks like an easy setup, but the cryptocurrency at checkout within WooCommerce isn’t populating. I don’t know if this has to do with my multi-site, but I doubt it.
