IMPORTANT: these changes will get wiped and overwritten with each BTCPay for WooCommerce plugin update and the proper way to fix this would be that your server (or your hosting provider) updates to a more recent OpenSSL version.
go to the plugins dircetory e.g. wp-content/plugins/btcpay-for-woocommerce
there find the certificate bundle in the library and open it:
nano lib/Bitpay/Client/Adapter/ca-bundle.crt
-
search for "DST Root CA X3"
-
DELETE that certificate
DST Root CA X3
