There are many P2P chat/instant message platforms but they are very niche. For example: https://cabal.chat/ https://cabal.chat/ There isn't a way to monetize an open P2P protocol, or even a "captive user base" to sell to VCs for a cash exit so not a lot of development has been done on that area. (And I would be highly skeptical of any "blockchain" P2P Chat proposal)
