About PancakeSwap
Key facts, ownership and custody.
PancakeSwap is a decentralized exchange, a trading venue that runs on several blockchains, including BNB Smart Chain, and it launched in 2020. It handles spot trades, where tokens change hands straight away, and perpetual futures, contracts that track an asset's price without a set end date.
Swaps on PancakeSwap are made against liquidity pools rather than a traditional order book, which makes it an automated market maker. Customer balances sit in public smart contracts, where they can be checked on the blockchain. Pool fee tiers run from 0.01% to 1.00%, set by each pool, and liquidity providers earn those fees while the protocol keeps part of the trading fees, as of 2026. CAKE is the exchange token, tied to the running of the exchange.
