      Dear Customers, We would like to let you know that at the moment, it is not possible to make deposits via BTCpay. You may use BitPay as a crypto alternative. Other ways to top up your Namecheap account balance are using your credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, AmEx, Diners Club, JCB or UnionPay), and PayPal. Please rest assured that payments that have already been broadcast on-chain are safe and will not be lost. They will be processed once the service has been restarted. Our responsible team will proceed with the upgrade as soon as the BTCPay team publishes an official update identifying the root cause and providing a confirmed fix. We hope for your understanding and thank you for your patience.

      We installed the security fixes on all Shared Hosting servers as soon as CloudLinux released them. CloudLinux issued its first patches urgently, and those packages did not update the PHP version numbers. Because of this, some PHP versions may have looked unpatched even though the fixes were already in place. CloudLinux has since released updated packages with the correct version numbers, and we have installed them on all Shared Hosting servers. The official patched version numbers are now displayed for PHP 8.2-8.5: PHP 8.5.12 PHP 8.4.27 PHP 8.3.36 PHP 8.2.35 For older PHP versions (5.2-8.1), the version numbers stay the same, but the security fixes have been applied to them as well. All PHP versions offered on our Shared Hosting servers are patched against these vulnerabilities.
