Title: Bitcoind and shared hosting? Post by: raze on May 01, 2013, 12:49:47 AM I'm in the process of developing a service that uses Bitcoins, and I'm exploring ways that I can go about integrating them into a website.
It would be required to - see if a transaction from a certain address to another address is confirmed - make transfers At the moment I have shared hosting and was wondering if I could run bitcoind on a machine(EDIT: Machine would probably be a Raspberry Pi) in my local network and use it to perform these tasks. I'm also very open to other suggestions. Thanks in advance. Title: Re: Bitcoind and shared hosting? Post by: giantdragon on May 01, 2013, 01:55:07 AM You need VPS to run Bitcoind. It is not so expensive as you might think, for $20 you can find good offers.
If you still want to use shared hosting, try Blockchain.info API (https://blockchain.info/api) which allows to send and receive payments. Title: Re: Bitcoind and shared hosting?
