LimeWire confirms return as NFT platform with nostalgic advert
LimeWire has confirmed its relaunch as an NFT marketplace with a nostalgic advert.
The website was initially shut down in 2010 after a legal battle with the Record Industry Association of America over copyright infringement charges.
But LimeWire has now made a shock comeback, returning as an NFT marketplace for art and entertainment.
