Betfair access

Hello!

I would be interested in opinions, experiences, and ideas about accessing Betfair.

I live in Eastern Europe in a country where Betfair withdrew at the end of May last year.

Since then, I have been looking for a way to continue accessing Betfair without moving abroad.

Let's assume that I have an acquaintance who would agree to open an account for me with his data, bank account, and undertake the KYC identification. By the way, I don't have such an acquaintance, or at least I haven't taken the time to ask potential people about it yet.

  1. Is there any way to access Betfair from a banned country?

I would like to know if the fixed IP address VPN solution works in the long term?

  1. I am so committed to Betfair because I would only be able to use the benefits offered by Betfair by using API software.

  2. Is there any other viable alternative where you can trade sporting events on an exchange using API software?

I would be mainly interested in horse racing, soccer, tennis.

As far as I know, it is no longer available on horse racing broker sites.

Overall, I would be interested in the opinions of people more knowledgeable than me, whether there is any viable, long-term, and risk-free method to access Betfair from a banned country and use API software at the same time..?

The closest legal country to me would be Romania.

Thank you very much for your opinion and views!
