**Introduction: **

  • On Tuesday, 29/11/2022, Binance decided to limit its availability on futures API and trading API.

  • Binance chose to go with geofencing and block multiple locations - including the USA.

  • This caused havoc and problems in multiple services and bots that use binance data.

  • In the fallout after - I reached out to the binance support via multiple channels and received the same response - "not our problem, discuss with google" (example: https://dev.binance.vision/t/google-cloud-and-ip-restriction-451-on-fapi-binance/13820/3)

**Problem statement: **

Is there a way to change the IP of my firebase functions for one OUTSIDE of US?

    No, you cannot change the IP address of a function. You can route traffic to a VPC and add a NAT to use a fixed IP address. However, AFAIK all Google IP addresses map to the address of Google's headquarters in CA.
