PancakeSwap is a decentralised exchange (DEX) protocol designed for token swaps, liquidity provision, and staking, operating on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). It employs the Automated Market Maker (AMM) model, enabling trading without relying on traditional order books. Key features of PancakeSwap include low transaction costs, fast trade execution, and a variety of financial products such as lotteries, NFT marketplaces, and Initial Farm Offering (IFO) launches.
PancakeSwap utilises the AMM system, enabling users to trade cryptocurrencies via liquidity pools instead of traditional buy and sell orders. This model is supported by Binance Smart Chain's Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism. The platform employs smart contracts to manage these liquidity pools, execute trades, and handle staking. PancakeSwap's Smart Router links various trading algorithms to ensure optimal liquidity and pricing across its ecosystems, with its code being open-source and available for review.
PancakeSwap offers multiple use cases across the decentralised finance sector, including:
