This is bad news, although they leave NY, but they still standing still. actually not LocalBitcoin only  who leave NY because the regulation, BitQuick also.

Yes, they are resuming their services like before, just moving their business from NY. So even tho it's bad in way, because NY is the center of the attention in the
business world, this shouldn't be over exaggerated, many services will follow, and all of this is because of the unrealistic bitlicence terms.

cheers

That's right, but there is still some bitcoin company which still live in NY like bittrex for example, i think because the cost of regulation is too expensive, that's only some company with a lot budget which can survive on NY, i think this is like discrimination right Huh

Why couldn't people on localbitcoins.com just click the green button that says "Im not in NY" instead of the red button thus being able to use the site? Just because your ip originates from NY does not mean you are actually located in NY, people worried about that could just use Tor.
