Say Hello to Hooks on PancakeSwap Infinity
2025-05-12

PancakeSwap Infinity is now live—and it’s packed with powerful new tools to help traders and liquidity providers get more out of DeFi. One of the most significant upgrades is Hooks.

So, what are Hooks?

Hooks are like add-ons or plugins. They’re special smart contracts that let developers build extra features into liquidity pools, such as smarter fees, trading discounts, and loyalty rewards.

To kick things off, we’ve launched three Hooks, created by PancakeSwap and our partner Brevis. These Hooks are already live and ready to use!

The 3 Hooks You Can Use Right Now

1. Dynamic Fee Hook (by PancakeSwap)

This Hook automatically adjusts trading fees based on how the market is moving. When the market is stable, fees stay low to make trading smoother. But when there’s high volatility, fees go up, penalizing arbitrage traders and helping protect liquidity providers (LPs).

Why it’s great: LPs can earn more during busy, high-risk times, while everyday traders enjoy fairer fees when markets are calm.

Liquidity Pairs Supported:

2. VIP Discount Hook (by Brevis)

The more you trade, the less you pay. This Hook gives discounts to high-volume traders based on their trading volume. Read more about the discounted fee tier and volume here (brevis blog link)

Why it’s great: High-volume traders benefit from fee discounts on PancakeSwap, increasing the liquidity providers’ APR.

Liquidity Pairs Supported:

3. Token Holding Fee Discount Hook (by Brevis)

You get lower trading fees if you hold specific tokens for a while. At launch, CAKE holders can enjoy discounted trading fees based on their average CAKE balance. Read more about holding and discount (Brevis Blog link)

Why it’s great: It rewards loyal users and encourages long-term token-holding.

Liquidity Pairs Supported:

All of these Hooks are available now on the Pools page. Liquidity providers can choose to supply liquidity in these specific pools and benefit from each Hook's unique features.

Feel free to explore and start customizing your trading and LP experience today. DeFi's future is modular and flexible, and it starts now.
