You're too late, it's has been discussed 1-2 months ago if I'm not mistaken Cheesy

The trading volume in LocalBitcoins has been declining for a long time, and there is no significant market demand for their service. No company will run a business that is not profitable anymore. So, they had to take this decision.

Localbitcoins lost their trading volume because they used to be a p2p BTC exchange that later began to ask for KYC from their customers, their users are people who wanted to trade only p2p, so obviously trading volume was going to drop, as their customers moved to other BTC p2p exchange.

But there are still other P2P platforms from exchanges like Binance, KuCoin, OKX, ByBit, etc., that we can still use as of the moment.

Binance, OKX and other centralized exchanges are not p2p exchanges because you do not trade directly with the other trading party.
