We're proudly to release the first open-source directory of sites that accept Bitcoin as payment method. Called "BTC-Stores", this website aim to store all websites that accept Bitcoin in the Internet - and the best thing: it's open source.



If you already love Bitcoin, and loves freedom, then will fall in love with BTC-Stores. See the currently index page:







Currently we're creating some pages in Github to explain better this project for who want help us, but you already can see this online.

We have a large roadmap, but at the moment we don't have a lot of time to spend with BTC-Stores - but we really trust in the power of open-source and we're waiting for the answer of the community about this project to decide how many time we will spend with this.



Already done:



Insert stores

Search by store title, description, country name and category name

Search by categories (and filter by country)

Convert inserted URL in shortened url (coinurl.com)

Categories CRUD

Countries CRUD

Static pages

Basic SEO for all pages

Next improvements:



Improve and rethink design (it really need appears like a web search or is better appear more content in the home page?)

Accept stores from DeepWeb (showing for user that this site belongs to DeepWeb)

Add a lot of websites to database
