Can people in Cuba use Phoenix or Breez? And I'm not talking about app store access, but would it work on a low bandwidth connection?
Breez is using neutrino, so no, not good for high ping. Bandwidth it doesn't matter, but response time, ping. Not speed, not volume, but time response. Phoenix, maybe yes, because is using Electrum sync so it could work better. But is not so cheap.

PHOENIX is a self-custody solution for Cubans. Only on the other side is ACINQ, so we already know what it means. I was asking for the community group that has a node, even if it is not complete, so they can tell me approximately something. I don't know if it can be done using mobile data. Here a data plan costs 2287 SATs, and that is 8 Gb of data. I don't know if with that you can run a node even if it is very limited.

Then I don't know what to say more. Your situation is really bad and complicated. maybe you could start a local ecash mint and do something like this that doesn't even require internet.
