PancakeSwap v3 brings four different trading fee tiers (0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, and 1%), which represent a substantial drop—up to 25 times lower—compared to v2. Traders and liquidity providers (LPs) can benefit by choosing between the four trading fee rates when they swap or provide liquidity.

When you decide to swap tokens, the v3 Smart Router brings an overall improvement to the system by utilizing all available liquidity in the protocol. This means that you're more likely to get a better rate compared to previous versions.

The new Smart Router is designed to intelligently find the best trading route for your swap. It incorporates liquidity from different sources such as PancakeSwap v3, v2, StableSwap, and also utilizes liquidity provided by the [**Market Maker integration**](https://blog.pancakeswap.finance/articles/pancake-swap-partners-with-celer-network-to-bridge-arb-token-for-zero-slippage-trades-on-bnb-chain) to offer the best deal.

**6. Winning Criteria:**

To win in the PancakeSwap Lottery, the digits on your ticket must match the winning numbers in the correct order. Let's illustrate this with an example:

_Example Lottery Draw:_ 

Ticket A: The first 3 digits and the last 2 digits match, but the 4th digit is wrong. In this case, Ticket A would only win a "Match first 3" prize. 

Ticket B: Although the last 5 digits match, the first digit is incorrect. As a result, Ticket B wouldn't win a prize. 

It's important to note that prize brackets do not stack. If you match the first 3 digits in order, you will only win prizes from the "Match 3" bracket and not from the "Match 1" and "Match 2" brackets.

**Prize Funds:**

The prize pool for each lottery round is sourced from various channels:

**Ticket Purchases:** Every CAKE paid by participants purchasing tickets for the round contributes 100% to the prize pools.

**Rollover Prizes:** If no one wins in a particular prize bracket, the unclaimed CAKE for that bracket rolls over to the next round and is redistributed among the prize pools. This ensures that each round's prize pool continues to grow.

**CAKE Injections:** Over the course of a week, an average total of 35,000 CAKE tokens from the treasury is injected into the lottery rounds. These CAKE tokens also contribute to rollovers, further enhancing the prize pools.


**Tips for Participating in the PancakeSwap Lottery:**

**Ticket Quantity:** Consider purchasing multiple tickets to increase your chances of winning. However, always spend within your means and adhere to responsible financial management.

Remember to conduct your own research, stay informed about updates, and always exercise responsible financial decision-making. Good luck and may the odds be in your favor as you embark on your PancakeSwap Lottery journey! **[Get Your Tickets Now.](https://pancakeswap.finance/lottery)**

What is PancakeSwap Lottery: A Step-by-Step Guide to Participation 

This article will walk you through how to participate in yield farming on  PancakeSwap v3 to earn CAKE rewards.

## **What Sets Farms Apart from Syrup Pools**

Unlike Syrup Pools where you stake only one token, Farms require you to stake liquidity provider tokens (LP Tokens) or a liquidity position NFT representing a pair of tokens. This allows you to earn CAKE while also maintaining a position in the tokens you're providing liquidity for.

## **Get Prepared**

Before you start, know that each farm accepts liquidity positions only from its specific trading pair with the exact fee tier of choice. For instance, the CAKE-BNB 0.25% Farm will only accept liquidity positions from the CAKE-BNB pair with the 0.25% fee tier.

**Let’s get started!**
![How to Farm in PancakeSwap v3_ A Comprehensive Guide steps (1).jpg](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/4f50fa72333f7e0722559bba2c6eaea7.jpg)

## **1. Locate Your Farm**

1.1 Go to the Farms page on PancakeSwap.
1.2 You can sort the Farms by APR to see which offer the highest rewards.
1.3 If you don’t have a liquidity position, click the “Add Liquidity” button on the Farm page. (Click [**here**](https://blog.pancakeswap.finance/articles/how-to-add-remove-liquidity-in-pancake-swap-v3-a-comprehensive-guide) to see how to add liquidity)
1.4 Follow the steps to provide liquidity for the chosen trading pair with the correct fee rate.

## **2\. Stake Your Positions into the Farm**

2.1 Once liquidity is added, you'll see your position listed under the farm you’ve chosen.

2.2 Click **"Stake"** and confirm the transaction in your wallet.

2.3 After confirmation, you’ll see your staked position.If you have multiple positions, you may click **“View All”** to view them in a new pop-up window.


## **3\. Harvest Farming Rewards**

3.1 Navigate to the Farm page and locate your staked position.
3.2 Click **“Harvest”** to claim your CAKE rewards.

## **4\. Add or Remove Liquidity While Staking**

4.1 Go back to the Farm page and find your staked position.
4.2 Click to go to the position detail page and use the **“Add”** or **“Remove”** buttons to adjust liquidity.

Note: Unclaimed CAKE rewards will be harvested automatically when you adjust your position.

## **5\. Unstake Your Positions**

5.1 Locate your staked positions.
5.2 Click **“Unstake”** and confirm. Your position and pending rewards will be returned to your wallet.

Farming on  PancakeSwap v3 can be a rewarding experience if done right. By following these steps, you can efficiently yield farm to earn CAKE while keeping a stake in your favorite tokens. Always remember to stay updated on the risks and do your own research before diving into any activities. 

Happy farming!

This article will walk you through how to participate in yield farming on  PancakeSwap v3 to earn CAKE rewards.

How to Farm on  PancakeSwap v3: A Comprehensive Guide

This guide aims to provide an in-depth walk-through on how to add and remove liquidity on  PancakeSwap v3, with a particular focus on its new features designed to benefit liquidity providers.

## **What's new in v3 LP?**

**Non-Fungible Liquidity Positions**

Liquidity positions have become non-fungible. This means you can create multiple positions with unique settings, even within the same trading pair. For example, one could be designed with a wider price range and another with a narrower one.

**Concentrated Liquidity**

You can now focus your liquidity within particular price ranges. This allows you to potentially earn the same trading fees while utilizing less capital.

**Multiple Fee Tiers**

Providers can choose from four trading fee tiers: 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, and 1%. This enables greater customization based on your risk-reward preferences.

![Screenshot 2023-08-10 at 8.58.05 PM.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/74fc6d79973f38bac6c54895c9a58c07.png)

**Start LP with us now!**

1\. Choose the two tokens that will make up the trading pair for which you intend to add liquidity. In this example, we will use ETH and USDC.

![image2.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/d4071327f233d43a5d183b610e3ed8dc.png)

2\. The system will automatically select the most widely-used trading fee tier and set your price range.


3\. Ensure that you are adding v3 liquidity by checking for the "v3 LP" label.

![image5.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/72ebbfa6b335e81faa17a5edcefa4123.png)


4\. The price range can be reviewed on the right side of the display. Adjustments can be made as needed. Please select an appropriate fee tier, as positions that are out-of-range will not generate trading fees.

![image11.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/777ff3ab04db71ae9c13870184569659.png)

5\. Enter a specific amount for one of the tokens in the "Deposit Amount" field, or simply use the **"MAX"** button for convenience.

![image3.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/6f4fe3f61f9b5bfe3626c38b6224659c.png)

6\. Click on the **"Enable"** button. If you add liquidity with tokens other than ETH, both tokens need to be enabled.

![image4.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/53458a6baebeafb7945766a322de9288.png)

## **How to Remove Liquidity**

1\. Navigate to the Liquidity page and select the "Add Liquidity" button.
