Hi,
Is there any way to display a secondary currency on listing and product pages? And that currency being BTC that would change every few minutes? That price would be more or less informative, real price would be of course on the checkout with Bitpay.

Something similar to this:

Hi,

In that case, you would have to edit the "listing_price" file of the view "product" via the menu Display>Views and add custom code to dynamically get the current BTC rate and do the conversion and then the display.
It's possible but clearly requires a high level of coding skills.

So, someone would really need to write an extension for something like that (unfortunately I do not have enough knowledge).
Given the fact that bitcoin is gaining in popularity do you have any plans on developing something like that? I think joomla & hikashop are somewhat behind the competition in e-commerce solutions without this.

We have other plans in the short term but don't exclude it later on. You can always have that developed by a third party developer if you want.
