Hello guys,

Long story short. I have coded a nodejs bitcoin payment gateway, acting similarly to bitpay, but without to-fiat conversion.
It can be used by any company already accepting payments, but who want to accept bitcoin easily and without 3rd parties.

Question is: did I reinvent the wheel and there are tons of solutions like this on the interwebz? And will it be useful if I publish it on github?

PS. I coded it for my pal's business so he could accept btc not relying on anyone.

Yes, you should open-source it. Not only will it benefit the community, but the community will be able to improve upon it and help review its security.
I have recently become active again after a long period of inactivity. Cryptographic proof that my account has not been compromised is available.

Actually uploading this to github will not only allow your script to be downloaded but also sell out your name and makes it worth in the cryptocurrency community.

Only solutions I am aware of are Bitcoin Payments for Woocommerce, which is reported to be unstable and not supported well and CoinSimple. Another resource would be welcome I think, good luck.
