BTCPAY 2.0 IS OUT!!! 🚀

https://blog.btcpayserver.org/btcpay-server-2-0/



BTCPay Server 2.0 realigns the internal architecture with the lessons we’ve learned since 2017, positioning us to better support both plugin developers and ourselves as we implement new features.

🌎New interface localization
🧭New sidebar-only navigation
📲New onboarding flow for new users and Point Of Sale
🏬Three new e-commerce integrations @Wix, @Odoo & @BigCommerce
🙌Checkout v2 default
🎨Branding enhancements



While it may not seem immediately obvious, we expect users to see the full potential of 2.0 in the upcoming months, as the ecosystem continues to thrive and build on top of it. With BTCPay Server 2.0, we’re introducing breaking changes in our API that allow us to eliminate the technical debt that has accumulated over the years.

Updating to BTCPay Server 2.0 is a one-way process with no option for rolling back. Because of that, we're making it opt-in, requiring that you SSH into your server and run:

git fetch
git checkout 2.0
btcpay-update.sh

Seamless integration into existing systems remains one of our top priorities, and we’re excited to introduce three new e-commerce integrations that expand the possibilities for merchants:

- Wix
- Odoo
- BigCommerce

If you use plugins with your BTCPay Server, you might notice that some are disabled after updates - we do that to prevent server crashes.

If you use plugins with your BTCPay Server, you may notice that some are disabled following updates - we do this to prevent server crashes. If you rely heavily on plugins for your BTCPay operations, we recommend that you double-check compatibility and look for announcements from plugin developers regarding their support for version 2.0 before proceeding with the upgrade.

@npub1psm37... has updated their plugin, so take a look at it how they did it as an example.



In the end 💚 Thanks to all that contributed

With 2.0 we wanted to do all the hard work, most of which may be invisible, but it sets a great base on what we’re aiming to do in 2025. Keep an eye on the upcoming minor releases that we’ll ship if we notice any bugs. In the next few big releases we’re hoping to ship some of the most requested features that further enhance our mission.

Super-special shout out goes to our community testers, who went beyond and above testing the 2.0: @cypherpunkstore @npub1qqqqq... @npub1k5f85... @JoinStrainly.

We hope you enjoy what this update has to offer. As always, thank you to our invaluable contributors, who directly participated in making 2.0 possible: @npub14j7wc... @dstrukt @jackstar0512 @npub1y24gz... @npub1qm72n... @npub1zfytz... @nisaba @npub1za04d... @TChileta @npub1rj7eh... @npub1j8y6t...

Final thanks - of course - goes to https://foundation.btcpayserver.org supporters who are ensuring our FOSS work is sustainable and are helping us make this tech available to everyone!

Get ready to use #Bitcoin for payments at @npub1h493d... !

Together with Bitcoinize and @npub13ljnk... we are rolling out Point of Sales for all vendors at the conference.

Those new to Bitcoin will use BoltCards and be happy - tap to pay and instantly settle over lightning ⚡️!

https://youtube.com/shorts/bhd8zo3KXnE

The best part: this setup is entirely FOSS!

You’re free to clone it, fork it… apply it in any way that serves your efforts to advocate and promote Bitcoin.

H/t to hodlhodl #BH2023 for being the first to deploy this setup.

We will not stop until every conference accepts Bitcoin payments.

Fiat is crumbling.
Let's make it obsolete!
