PancakeSwap is the dominant AMM DEX on BNB Chain, offering token swaps, liquidity provision, yield farming, staking, NFT marketplace, perpetuals trading, and a lottery. CAKE is the governance and reward token, earned by liquidity providers and stakers. PancakeSwap expanded to Ethereum, Arbitrum, zkSync, Linea, and Solana, making it a multi-chain DEX. A governance vote in January 2026 capped max supply at 400M CAKE.
PancakeSwap uses an AMM model similar to Uniswap where liquidity providers deposit token pairs into pools and earn trading fees. CAKE is distributed as liquidity mining rewards across farms. Users can also stake CAKE in Syrup Pools to earn other project tokens, or participate in IFOs (Initial Farm Offerings) for new token launches. CAKE v3 introduced concentrated liquidity (similar to Uniswap v3). Tokenomics 3.0 (April 2025) dramatically reduced CAKE emissions, resulting in net deflation of 8.19% in 2025. The max supply was subsequently reduced from 450M to 400M.

Uniswap and other Ethereum DEXs charge high gas fees making small trades uneconomical. PancakeSwap provides a full-featured DEX experience on BNB Chain with fees often under $0.01, enabling everyday trading, yield farming, and DeFi participation for users with smaller capital who cannot afford Ethereum gas costs.
