On February 28, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) proponents were introduced to a new platform called Bitcartcc. The project is a self-hosted open source payment processor that allows merchants to accept bitcoin cash easily. Bitcartcc was created because the developers behind the popular application Btcpay refuse to add support for BCH. Bitcartcc was built so anyone can leverage a “light and fast solution” for accepting bitcoin cash payments.

Bitcartcc: Self-Hosted, Open Source Payment Processor With Bitcoin Cash Support
A new self-hosted open source payment processor called Bitcartcc was unveiled on Friday, as the application’s creator announced the project via the read.cash blog. The developer’s announcement explained that the well known Btcpay server, another open source payment processor, refuses to implement bitcoin cash (BCH) support and they believe the organization won’t be adding BCH anytime soon.
Because of Btcpay’s stubborn refusal, Bitcartcc’s creator decided to construct an alternative. The project was also spawned because Bitcartcc’s programmers wanted to accept cryptocurrencies with their newly developed Telegram bot without any fees. “We had limited funding [and] we needed a light solution too,” the Bitcartcc developer wrote on Friday. “Btcpay didn’t work, nothing did,” he added. The creator of the self-hosted Bitcartcc platform also stated:
[Bitcartcc] is a light and fast solution for accepting cryptocurrency payments in your stores and apps, now supporting Bitcoin Cash — It is a self-hosted solution too, so you can be free of third-party for even just $3.5 a month, or even cheaper.
