Integrate in major self-hosted payment processors #141

BitPay has "paused" processing Bitcoin transactions in Germany around Aug 2019. It disrupted businesses who began to rely on it for cash inflows.

BitPay succumbed to the devil became more annoying prior to that by insisting on collecting your email address and forcing a payment protocol that your wallet has to support and phone their server (instead of just talking to Bitcoin or Electrum networks).

CoinPayments had its own UX issues last time I tested it (#21).

It is reasonable for businesses to transition to self-hosted open-source solutions like BTCPay.

Survey the landscape of existing payment processing software. Research opportunities and efforts required to integrate Decred in major ones. Also make notes of less popular projects that look promising.
