Title: Programmatically generating bitcoin addresses from Electrum 2.x MPK
Post by: Tungsten on January 06, 2016, 08:23:36 PM
I've build Electrum-based open source Wordpress plugin that allows anyone to build 100% secure, hacker proof, no middlemen involved online stores allowing to sell anything for bitcoins or dollars:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/

It is based on Electrum MPK.
The problem is that Electrum 2.x changed the MPK algorithm and PHP-based MPK-to-bitcoin-address code (that I hired someone to write) no longer works.

Does anyone knows how hard it would be to adjust (or re-create) PHP code to generate bitcoin addresses from Electrum 2.x MPK?

I hate to let plugin rot - as lots of people liked it's bulletproof MPK-based security and no middlemen concepts of it.

If anyone is wiling to help here, I surely would love to donate to assist an effort.

What a shame, nobody bothered to salute and thank OP.

Gleb, you made a good job and provided a free opensource plugin to the Bitcoin community, we need more people like you.
