I would rather use a service that cares about my privacy than one that cares about (profiting off of) my money. No need to flee anywhere, as Bitcoin was intended to be a global, decentralized currency.
But what about their app download on GitHub? https://github.com/ACINQ/phoenix/releases

Even if their app is removed from Google Playstore and App store, users can still use Tor to download it and still be using tor to continue to use the lightning network app on their device. Many US citizens may not know this though.

How?
What would stop a US citizen to go here:
https://github.com/ACINQ/phoenix/releases
download the apk and run it?
This is true. Because an app is removed from those app stores, that does not mean they have stopped operation. Which means those that have the app already can still continue to use it, while those that still want to use it can download it from their GitHub through the link you give. It is not as centralized as I thought, it is better to have the apk on GitHub.

But there are some people that will not know this but be afraid of their bitcoin not to get lost. Many of them will not know about Phoenix on GitHub. This may likely reduce United States Phoenix wallet users.
83  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is there strategy to make profit daily future trade on: April 28, 2024, 08:06:42 AM
I have good knowledge with crypto future
I get signals from groups on telegram
These are contradictory. If you have good knowledge about crypto trading, it means you do not need signal groups. Know that if you depend on signal groups, that does not means that they will give you accurate information. If you pay them, it is just like a scam.

But i got idea to make profit daily
I choose some coins potential raise and open long  positions on them and hold
These are also contradictory. You want daily profit and you said you hold. They are two different things.

For day until i get profit.. Is this good idea or let me know if there better idea
If you are looking for daily profit, that is almost impossible in trading. There are just some days that will be for losses. If you think you should hold while not making profit yet, you can trade coins like bitcoin and not shitcoins. It is a good ideal if you use 1x leverage and not go more than 2.5x leverage.

The united states have done nothing against Phoenix or ACINQ!
They haven't taken anything down, you can see that even their LN channels are still working in the US being hosted in the US.

Phoenix is still providing services to US customers. The lightning wallet provider will cease to provide services to US people on May 3.

Well 5 usd is what I always use to bet on any casino game, not on sports betting, just in the casino and it is enough for me to have a casino day, of course and I play dice, crash, roulette or simply to the slot machines. . something more special because sometimes I tend to put a little more but the difference is that there in slots I don't look to win, but rather play Therapeutically, but I only use that balance to have fun, because 5 usd is a lot. , but it is enough to have a good time, however those 5 can sometimes give you 7 or 8 usd, which is not bad, so I recommend that you do that, that you play 1 or 2 times a week betting that and if you win 2 or 3 powders then leave them there and the next day play with the winnings and try to increase them, but little by little if possible, but you have to have a lot of willpower not to bet or bet anything. more than that.
Betting is for sport while gambling is for casinos. I spend more hours and play more games in casinos, that makes me reduce my money for each game to be $0.5 in casinos. I may not play more than 3 games in bookies and I can bet just $5 each, unlike 20 to 30 times that I can gamble in casinos. The amount I will still spend will be the same in both casinos and bookies. I enjoy casinos than bookies.

Assuming this was possible, this is one way to fight back.
I suggest the name of the island be called, "Satoshi Island".
I am not saying that you are wrong, but I am just saying lightning network has a bit of on-chain which is opening and closing channel and some technical issue that can be related to it. You are right because not depending on centralized means has been the way that the government are not able to take decentralized projects down. You are right. But just that most people that are using lightning network are not using noncustodial lightning network.
87  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: The airstrikes begin... (Phoenix Wallet) on: April 27, 2024, 07:59:25 AM
We are looking at a situation where very soon US IP addresses will blocked from using more lightning nodes. And it has started already.
You can use tor to access everything about bitcoin, you do not need to depend on US IP. But only if it is noncustodial with no central authority.

How will US people fight ? Learn how to create and manage your own channel.
Most people do not use noncustodial lightning network because it is not simple to open a channel and it requires bitcoin fee to open and close a channel.

I guess I am behind on the Chainanalysis news. Kindly reply this with the link so I can get properly informed on it. Thanks.
About United States taken down Phoenix? This is a link that you can read about it https://news.bitcoin.com/acinq-to-withdraw-phoenix-wallet-from-us-markets-amid-regulatory-concerns/

Phoenix wallet was non-custodian the last time I checked. Is that an error of they've made changes to their mode of operation?
It is not noncustodial.
89  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I don't like the term "blockchain" on: April 27, 2024, 07:35:05 AM
The author argues that "timechain" more accurately describes Bitcoin because it emphasizes the fact that Bitcoin is a chronological ledger of transactions.
Block builds on top of each other which makes it blockchain or block chain or chain of blocks. That is a perfect name it can be called. Not time chain because time can not chain together.

Moreover, one can argue that some software developers find that blockchain is a bad data structure. I mean, a blockchain does have features for its original purpose to solve the double-spending problem in a distributed system, but for general computing or development of distributed applications, it's better to use something else.
Do you know the meaning of double spending? RBF is double spending that people use to increase the fee or to cancel a transaction. Because car can lead to accident, should that be the reason we should not use car?

Some weeks back or probably some months back, wallet of Satoshi was removed from Google Playstore and App store for United States citizens not to be able to access it. No reason stated.

It is now Phoenix wallet which is one of the best custodial lightning wallets for bitcoin. No reason also stated for removing the lightning wallet from the Google Playstore and App store for United States citizens not to be able to access it.

I guess these lightning wallets are targeted one after the other but we do not know the reason. Is it because Chainanalysis were unable to trace the lightning transactions or the wallet developers are not cooperating with the United States to make lightning transactions on their channels less private?
91  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: The airstrikes begin... (Phoenix Wallet) on: April 27, 2024, 07:06:31 AM
But there is something that I am not yet getting. What is the reason custodial lightning wallets are removed from the United States citizens? I can remember that Wallet of Satoshi was removed from the Google Playstore and App store some weeks ago but no reason was also stated.
92  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are Nassim Taleb's ideas useful in gambling? on: April 26, 2024, 05:51:16 PM
1. Ideas from the book “Fooled by Randomness.” There are many ideas that boil down to the fact that we often mistake randomness for a pattern.
I can apply this one to gambling. I see it as gamblers should know that winning is random in gambling and not a pattern. Some gamblers may think they can use a strategy or some strategies to win the casino or the bookie but at the end they will be the one that is losing. We should not consider something random can be won with some kind of strategies. We should gamble responsibly and with the amount of money that we can afford to lose.

It’s no secret that some central banks are starting to get in on crypto. If you can’t beat them, join them right? That kind of thing. But the thing is a lot of them are interested in making their own blockchains which aren’t yet capable of earning trust and confidence from their users.
CBDCs are not cryptocurrencies. They are making use of blockchain but it is defined by the central banks that are making them that they are not cryptocurrencies. They can only be regraded more as modern day fiat. The cryptocurrencies that are similar to fiat are stable coins that are backed by fiat.
94  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2023/2024 on: April 26, 2024, 10:21:30 AM
I also want to see a different champion a lot. Manchester City have been dominating the league for many years. Only Liverpool managed to break the series once and that's all.
I like a league to be very competitive in a way that different clubs would win the league almost every season but EPL is no longer like that. Manchester City is dominating and which is what I do not like about the League. I am not a fan of any club which I think is causing me to think like that.

There is a long way to go, nothing is guaranteed just yet  Grin
It is just four matches remaining for most clubs. The clubs that have to play five or six matches to play can not can not be at the top, except Manchester City. Although I understood what you are saying, any club among the three can still win. It is just my guess and I can be right or wrong.
95  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: AI Dino Game-Using AI to hack Bitcoin wallets on: April 26, 2024, 09:27:14 AM
I use AI to crack Bitcoin wallet
You do not have to come to this forum to post rubbish. The device needed to brute force bitcoin wallet private keys are not yet created. The 128 bits is still strong enough against any brute force attack.
96  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2023/2024 on: April 26, 2024, 09:19:17 AM
I think Liverpool cannot be counted out of the title race but they are three points behind leaders Arsenal with equal games played. Manchester City have played two games less but are only four points behind. Any of those three teams could still win the title.
Real Madrid has won Manchester City in Champions League, this will make the club to concentrate more on EPL. The toughest match I see that can be played with its opponents is the last match which is with Tottenham. If Arsenal is able to rival Manchester City to last match, Manchester City will use all their strength to make sure they win Tottenham. Although it is a home match for Tottenham but I guess that Manchester City may win EPL again which is this season. Anything can still happen but this is my guess. I know that Liverpool will not win, it may likely be in the third position.

If you want to have fun and just be gambling with little amount of money to prolong your gambling time, you can try roulette with just small amount of money. You do not need to even learn it. It is simple to know.

For football sport you will need to know the last five matches of the team you want to choose and of the club it is playing with. Check the head to head of the team it is playing with. Check how they are scoring goals.

I like table tennis but I play it less often and I win more than in football.
98  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Blogs and Forums. Additional Features in Online Casinos on: April 25, 2024, 10:25:31 PM
While  some of us may just want to sign up and start playing immediately, it is not so for others. Do you by chance consider these features when assessing and selecting which casinos to join and play on?
I do not care about anything like forum or a place of interaction directly on a casino. All I care is a gambling site to be reputable, having good services, like fast withdrawal and crypto support.
99  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beyond Wagering on: April 25, 2024, 08:13:48 PM
Only what I noticed is that I am close to some of my friends that are gambling. We talk about gambling and learn from each other. We do not use addiction to joke and we talk against it, how it can start and what someone can do to avoid addiction. Aside that I prefer also to post on gambling board on this forum also which has been very helpful for me.

You can think whatever you want,i don't care
Whoever needs it will be interested and will see for themselves
You don't get your hands chopped off for asking in pm
You do not need to be angry, just like the tactics scammers are using. Forgive me if true you are not planning to scam. I am not saying people should not do as they want, but they should avoid in any money dealing with you if they do not want to be scammed. Also that if you introduce them to any business, they should avoid.
