this is a great question
idk how strike works, not us-based and didn't even know strike has a p2p feature.
but I'd guess, since p2p works through escrow, that you skip the middle-man (strike) here in p2p payments. so if strike's settlement-server (?) goes down you can still trade. (@jackmallers?)
however struke still requires you to do KYC before using which, imo, affects one of the important features, permissionless-ness, of bitcoin. and you become low-hanging fruit. i dont like that.
