This section describes all Cryptocurrency WordPress Plugin for WooCommerce configuration settings.

Ethereum wallet address

The Ethereum address of your wallet from which you would sell Ether or ERC20 tokens.

Note that this wallet should be treated as a Hot Wallet! Do not store a lot of funds in this wallet. Typically, it is enough to have 0.2-0.4 ETH and not more then 5-10% of your ERC20 tokens in this wallet. You can buy Ether with service like binance.com or coinbase.com

Ethereum wallet private key

The private key for the Ethereum wallet address from which you would sell Ether or ERC20 tokens. It is kept in a secret and never sent to the client side. That is why it would stay empty after you’ll have inputted and saved it. Do not worry, it is the right behavior. Even your freelancer site admin would not have access to this private key value.
