I'm working on a wp site with the woo/bitcoin plugin.
http://wordpress.org/plugins/bitcoin-payments-for-woocommerce/
The plugin uses electrum wallet
"Electrum wallet payment option completely removes dependency on any third party service and middlemen."
The only major issue I've ran into so far is you have to set your woocommerce default currency to
dollars (haven't test other currencies). So your shop/cart will show dollar prices but when
you go to pay with the bitcoin option it'll convert it for you. If you set the default currency to show bitcoin
no conversion will take place and it'll show zeros for total. It appears the plugin isn't
detecting the btc as a default currency option.

How about for those who are not using woo just plain simple wordpress we need to for example sell 1 digital product for lets say 0.001 BTC verify the payment and then send to next page how can we do that without middle man can you make a simple version of plugin for us who don't need a big ecomerce shopping cart solution?

Thanks

If you do not have cart then building what you are asking for is essentially another cart. Which is more than just posting a product and price then charging
for it. You would need access control system , admin pages( handle refunds, files to download, prices etc) , customer pages (order status, downloads remaining, customer info etc), error handling, payment integration (payment status, wallet info.., just to name a few ) I'm not a big fan of reinventing the wheel so I make do with whats there
and mod as necessary. If you're dead set on not implementing one of the cart systems, the one way to do it would be do a torrent search for
php scripts (they usually have a ton of shopping carts). Find a cart you like then integrate it with wp. I've created add-in's using external code using this method..

I. Create a folder in the wp directory somewhere.
II. Put the code in the folder
III. In the interface pages put;
require_once( 'wp-blog-header.php');
get_header(); //this will show your menu system etc..
//Body
//YOUR CUSTOM CODE HERE
get_footer(); //nuff said

IV. Install Custom Permalinks plugin for wp.
V. Create a page in wp for you interface pages.
A. At the top of each page in your Custom Permalink type the path to the add-in folder interface page.
Save the page then view it.

For example lets say you have a domain xzy.com.
Create a folder with your code at the root of the website lets say the folder name is alpha (assuming it has an index.php file with interface code).
Create a page in wp and in the permalink at the top it should say http://xyz.com/ -> in the text box type /alpha/
Save and view.

This is the easiest way I've found to extend a wp site without learning all the guts. Plus it's not as tightly coupled so
you can re-use the code somewhere else with minimum modifications.

Speaking from experience, most people say 'it's a simple project' then it explodes in to a giant monster.
