PancakeSwap Trading Volume Analysis: CAKE Burns and Fee Dynamics
PancakeSwap achieved record trading volumes, with 90% of May's volume coming from 0.01% fee tier pools. While this resulted in lower CAKE burns due to reduced fees, it indicates a more efficient ecosystem. CAKE price increased 15% in May ($2.03 to $2.50), boosting the dollar value of burns and improving LP farm APRs. Key points: - Lower fees = healthier ecosystem - Traders benefit from reduced slippage - LPs attracted to capital-efficient pools The Kitchen team continues monitoring these metrics to balance deflation with market share growth.
