Title: Opensource "receive payments" gateway: Straight
Post by: cliffhanger on September 29, 2014, 09:31:18 AM
Hi everyone, just wanted to share an open source payment gateway I released, it's called Straight: http://straight.romansnitko.com

You know how merchants that use Coinbase or Bitpay have to trust those companies to hold their bitcoins for them? Furthermore, they have to give up all that info to comply with AML/KYC. This is not what Bitcoin is about.

You can install it on your own server, or use a hosted version (in the future). It doesn't require your private keys and uses BIP32 instead. Has callbacks, supports Rails integration ("straight" gem) but can work as a stand-alone gateway  server too ("straight-server" gem). Hope this helps someone.
