 ### Using WebHook route
 Laravel paystack provides you a predefined endpoint that listens to and validates incoming paystack's webhook events.
 It emits `Myckhel\Paystack\Events\Hook` on every incoming hooks which could be listened to.
+The hook request is validated with `validate_paystack_hook` middleware by using the paystack's config `secret_key` against the incoming request.
