LimeWire has announced the launch of a decentralized file-sharing feature powered by BNB Greenfield, marking its reentry into the file-sharing space. This feature allows users to send and receive encrypted files globally, blending the company's origins in peer-to-peer file sharing with modern Web3 capabilities. According to Julian Zehetmayr, co-founder and CEO, file sharing has always been integral to LimeWire’s identity, with users expressing a strong demand for this capability. Historically, LimeWire was a dominant platform for downloading music until it was shut down in 2010 due to legal issues. The platform has since transitioned to become an NFT marketplace and integrated further into the Web3 ecosystem by rewarding users with cryptocurrencies through various features. The new decentralized file-sharing capability is expected to resonate with its user base, offering a modern twist on its original function.
