LimeWire was popular as a torrenting site, although it has now rebranded itself as a platform for artists and content creators to monetize their content in a Web3 fashion. Last year, LimeWire received $10 million in funding from prominent crypto firms such as Kraken and Crypto.com, alongside other investment companies.
So far, the public sale has reached almost $16 million and the maximum target sale is $30 million. As to the exchange listing of LMWR after the public sale, the team has not yet disclosed the initial names of partner crypto exchanges.
