Exhange View 'Local Monero' Target Site Will Be Offline Nov 7 2024

Description

I landed on bug rather than feature request b/c I found the following experience unsettling: being directed to purchase XMR from an embedded external site which upon visiting was blasting the news it had shuttered operations. hmmm

This is very much more a confidence modulating bug than one of immediate operational import. I ultimately found a way to do what I intended to. AND, this did not involve the Buy Monero using fiat currency suggested link/service. When I got to the end, and it wanted my SSN, something felt uncomfortable having been just prior directed to a dead site. So, other ways! & also, this is all amazing! Thank you!!

Steps to reproduce

1. MyMonero Wallet (Mac)
2. Exchanges
3. Buy Monero using LocalMonero link to [LocalMonero](https://localmonero.co/?rc=h2t1).

Expected behavior:

• Arrive at the advertised/described service.

Actual behavior:

• The advertised service is about to go dark (and announced this many months ago). Which is fine, but then makes me ponder why has the url not been yanked from the distributed mymonero? How active is this whole endeavour? What is my confidence level now?
