LimeWire is a mainstream-ready marketplace for musicians to distribute art and uniquely interact with collectors, their most loyal community of fans, and anyone interested in their music and art. LimeWire can be used by anyone, without any pre-requisite technical knowledge about NFTs, and even without the need to own any cryptocurrency. LimeWire is an easy-to-use NFT marketplace with a mission to allow artists to go back to selling records, music-related art and other collectibles directly to fans and followers - as simple as possible. In fact, our goal is the exact opposite: Instead of handing out art for free, we aim to give artists the opportunity to monetize their work in a secure, easily accessible environment with fair compensation. Today’s LimeWire is very different from the old LimeWire. After pirating music for free, paying for digital music became the norm to be again replaced by music streaming services. Since then, the music industry has changed significantly. At its peak, the software had over 50 million active users. Released in May 2000, the peer-to-peer software quickly became synonymous with pirating MP3s and videos in the early days of file sharing. You may know LimeWire from back in the day.
