PancakeSwap is excited to announce the upcoming Initial Farm Offering (IFO) for Solv Protocol.

Introducing the Solv Protocol IFO on BNB Chain PancakeSwap

On January 9th, Chef Fran and Chef Kids shared PancakeSwap's key priorities for Q1 2025 in a special [AMA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shVMm2EPjC0&ab_channel=PancakeSwap). Here’s a quick recap of the session:

### 2024 Highlights: A Year of Innovation

2024 marked a year of significant milestones for PancakeSwap, including the launch of PancakeSwapX for gasless swaps, AI-powered Prediction, and significant progress on PancakeSwap v4. Looking ahead to 2025, the focus is on the full launch of v4, expanding PancakeSwapX on BNB Chain, and introducing the PancakeSwap Hub.

### PancakeSwap v4

Chef Kids discussed the ongoing work behind PancakeSwap v4, emphasizing the team’s commitment to security, performance, and usability. With features like limit orders, TWAMM, and Flash Accounting, v4 is set to establish new benchmarks in DeFi.

### Multichain Expansion

PancakeSwap is focused on expanding to new chains, with at least one or two integrations planned for this quarter. The team monitors liquidity and trading volumes to ensure optimal chain performance.

### PancakeSwap Hub: Redefining DEX Trading

The PancakeSwap Hub will enhance the trading experience by solving pricing inefficiencies and slippage, providing deeper liquidity and more efficient pricing across various sources.

### veCAKE & Governance

Chef Kids highlighted how veCAKE governance maintains a balance between community control and platform stability, ensuring the sustainability of key trading pairs while empowering veCAKE holders.

### UI/UX Improvements

The team continues prioritizing user-friendly design, with upcoming updates such as a revamped Limit Orders page to simplify the trading experience.

### Unanswered Questions

Due to time constraints during the AMA, we couldn’t address all the questions from the community. However, we want to ensure everyone stays informed, so here are the responses to the questions we weren’t able to cover live:

- **AI in Web3:** PancakeSwap is exploring how AI can improve Web3 interactions, such as simplifying transaction processes and enhancing user interfaces. While some AI technologies are still in early development, the team is committed to integrating reliable, mature solutions to improve the user experience. AI-powered predictions, for example, have already been introduced to demonstrate our focus on AI innovation.
- **New Business Areas (RWA, Lending, etc.):** While ideas like real-world assets (RWA) and lending are promising, PancakeSwap’s current priority is strengthening our core products. These areas would require significant development, and while they are not a focus right now, we’ll continue to monitor the space for future opportunities.
- **DeFi Competitiveness:** PancakeSwap stands out through its diverse range of products, competitive swap pricing, and strong community involvement. With deep liquidity pools and efficient routing, we offer better pricing and a more sustainable ecosystem than competitors.
- **CEX Collaboration:** With the rise of Web3 wallets integrated into CEXs, PancakeSwap sees this as an opportunity for collaboration rather than competition. By partnering with CEXs, PancakeSwap can enhance the user experience through Web3 wallet integration and volume aggregation, providing a complementary service to centralized exchanges.

We appreciate all your questions and feedback and look forward to continuing the conversation in future AMAs!

## **Numbers That Matter: Key Achievements in 2024**

![image1.jpg](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/a025f14dc286f99fd13de252b6f49e59.jpg)

At PancakeSwap, we let the numbers do the talking. Here’s a look at the major milestones we reached:

- **Total Trading Volume:** $310.6B across 9 blockchains, reflecting a 179% YoY growth from $111.3B in 2023 to $310.6B in 2024.
- **2024 Highest Daily Trading Volume:** $3.47 billion on December 16, 2024
- **Total Value Locked (TVL):** $2.17B
- **Total Unique Traders:** 14.38M+ users

We focused on providing a seamless, multi-chain experience that’s easy for anyone to access, making PancakeSwap the go-to DEX for millions of users worldwide.

## **CAKE: Fueling Growth & Sustainability**

![image6.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/fbd8adce3991c119545e85c6a33403a3.png)

CAKE remains the backbone of PancakeSwap’s ecosystem, driving value for holders and supporting long-term growth.

- **455.5M CAKE Burned** in 2024, increasing scarcity
- **5.3M CAKE Net Burned**, reinforcing the ecosystem’s strength
- **1.79M CAKE Holders** globally, fueling the token’s sustainability

## **Putting User's Experience First: Products That Matter**

![image2.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/e223fc24dce67008071c66b48c0afee0.png)
In 2024, PancakeSwap focused on delivering products that solve real user needs, making DeFi more efficient and accessible than ever:

- **Gauges Voting & veCAKE Upgrade**: Multi-chain support on Base, Polygon zkEVM, Linea, opBNB, and more, with external bridging platform integrations like StakeDAO and Hidden Hand.
- **PancakeSwapX**: Gasless, zero-fee swaps on Ethereum and Arbitrum.
- **SpringBoard**: A no-code, zero-fee platform for launching tokens on the BNB Chain.

## **v4 Development & Milestones**

2024 marked a major milestone for PancakeSwap v4 with key achievements:

- **v4 Whitepaper:** Released at EthGlobal London in March.
- **$500K Developer Grant:** Supporting hackathons and workshops at EthGlobal London and Brussels, with 20+ submissions at each event.
- **v4 Online Hackathon (collaboration with Brevis):** 115 hackers, 26 builds, 5 winners.

## **v4: Where We Are Now and Looking Ahead to 2025**

At PancakeSwap, we’ve always prioritized user security, believing the best results come from careful, thoughtful work. While we had initially set a target for a Q3 2024 release, we’ve chosen to take a bit more time to conduct additional security audits and gather further feedback. We've completed the first round of audits and are using this valuable input to refine and enhance the protocol.

Rather than rushing the process, we focus on delivering a product that meets the highest standards and is ready for the community. We’re currently in the final stages of internal testing, making final tweaks based on feedback to ensure the best possible outcome.

Looking ahead to 2025, we're confident that the extra care we’re putting into this release will result in a secure, seamless launch. We appreciate the community’s patience as we continue fine-tuning PancakeSwap v4 to ensure it’s the best it can be.

## **A Global Community: Growing Stronger Every Day**

![image4.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/6aadbf639217a70a9013e4a611121a4a.png)
PancakeSwap's community continued to expand globally in 2024, fostering deeper connections and engagement across regions:

- **Global Expansion**: 6 Community meetups in Turkey, Brazil, Spain, Vietnam, and Nigeria
- **2.37M+ Social Media Followers** across platforms
- **40+ Ambassadors** driving engagement worldwide
- **Event Highlights**: PancakeSwap attended major blockchain events, including ETHGlobal London, BNB Incubation Alliance, ETHGlobal Brussels, ETH CC, Live on Linea, Binance Blockchain Week, and more.

Our global community continues to grow stronger, creating meaningful connections and solidifying PancakeSwap’s position as a DeFi leader.

## **Looking Ahead: This is only the beginning**

2024 was a year of tremendous growth, but none of it would have been possible without the incredible support of our community. Together, we’ve turned ambitious goals into concrete achievements, transforming PancakeSwap from a platform into a thriving global ecosystem.

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re more excited about what we’ll accomplish together. The journey is just beginning, and we can’t wait to continue building a better, more inclusive DeFi future with you.

Thank you for making PancakeSwap your home in DeFi.

Each day during the campaign period, 20 lucky winners will each receive 5 APT. To participate, you need to trade a minimum of $100 USD in volume per day in trading pairs that include APT. This $100 can be reached through a single transaction or multiple trades – all APT trades will contribute to the total daily volume. 

**2\. Consistency Bonus - 1000 APT**

Trade at least $100 USD daily (in a single transaction or across multiple swaps – every APT trade counts!) in trading pairs that include APT for at least 15 days during the campaign period. It doesn’t need to be consecutive – just 15 days out of the 30 days. At the end of the campaign, 20 lucky winners will split 1,000 APT, each receiving 50 APT!

**3\. Top Traders Leaderboard – 4,000 APT**

Trade a minimum of $500 USD (in a single transaction or across multiple swaps – every APT trade counts) in trading pairs that include APT during the campaign period to qualify for leaderboard rewards. At the end of the campaign the top 50 traders by volume will share 4,000 APT!
