A once famous platform that helped users share music without compensation or payment in the early 2000s is back with a crypto twist.
LimeWire was a popular music-sharing service, much like Napster, that allowed people to upload and download music without compensation to artists. It drew the outrage of musicians and helped reshape the industry.
The service shuttered in 2010, but was relaunched in 2021 by individuals that are aiming to 'give artists the opportunity to monetize their work in a secure, easily accessible environment with fair compensation.'
Now, the newest version of LimeWire has a crypto-token that uses the site's famous lime logo.
LimeWire once helped users share music without compensation or payment in the early 2000s is now back with a crypto twist
LimeWire was originally created by Mark Gorton in 2000 and offered a way for people to obtain music and videos without paying
LimeWire was originally created by Mark Gorton in 2000. It drew in millions of users and unlike Napster, the file-sharing streaming service was active for 10 years.
Both sites came in the early days of internet and offered a way for people to download music, video and images without any sort of payment, as musicians quickly filed lawsuit and complained about the services.
Metallica's Lars Ulrich was one of the individuals who was against Napster and read a testimony during the band's lawsuit with Napster.
'If I wanna give my s*** away for free, I'll give it away for free,' Ulrich wrote in a 2014 Reddit post.
'That choice was taken away from me.'
Napster was quickly shuttered, but LimeWire lived on for a decade until 2010. It closed down but is now back in operation.
Ulrich and other members of Metallica have not talked about the rebranded LimeWire in public.
Musicians expressed anger with LimeWire and Napster and how it provided music with no compensation. Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich famously testified before Congress about the issue

The new LimeWire co-creators, Julian and Paul Zehetmayr, began LimeWire's reawakening in 2021 and rebranded it to become a block-chain focused project.
The brand launched an AI music generator in December 2023, which allows users to create AI tracks.
AI tools can do a variety of things to a song such as mixing music production and creating a copy of the artist's voice.
The AI studio is used to benefit musicians for things like images, music, video content creation, and as a social platform.
The technology makes the AI content ownable and allows creators and fans to earn LimeWire Tokens.
LimeWire users have the option to use a free basic studio or use something called a new LimeWire crypto-token to pay between $9.99-$99.99 in membership fees.

The token is a utility token that is used as a payment method on LimeWire that can be earned by participating in their rewards programs.
Bitcoin, tempo mail which uses blockchain technology for digital currency transactions, is not that different from the LimeWire token.
Both these payment options are digital currencies that use blockchain technology.
BTC was first introduced to the public in 2009 and, as of February 2024, around 50 million individuals use BTC regularly. It is the largest and most well-known cryptocurrency.
