Are there any plans to integrate bitcoin (or other cryptocurrencies) as a payment option for subscriptions? My target audience is worldwide (medical education) and not everyone will have access to paypal or other traditional payment methods.
Joomla 3.4.3
CB 2.0.10
CSubs 4.0.0
(If it hasn't yet been considered, here is how I would approach it: set up a deterministic wallet such as a Type 2 hierarchical deterministic wallet that allows the use of a Master Public Key, which means that the site owner enters a single 128 bit seed from the back end and from that, an unlimited number of recipient payment addresses can be generated, e.g. one for each user for each plan. The Master Public Key cannot be used to access funds, so even if the site gets hacked, the funds cannot get stolen. The site owner can access funds using the private key that only the site owner knows and which never needs to be entered online, using something like TREZOR, Electrum or CarbonWallet that implements this type of wallet. A site like blockchain.com can be accessed via their API to monitor whether payment has been received for any given address, when received, how many confirmations, etc. Part of the back end setup would be to choose how many confirmations are needed for the plan to be considered active. Setting it to zero confirmations should be default: it would enable very fast payments and would be sufficiently low risk for most sites, I think.)
