In our March 2024 report, we explore the world of CAKE token supply management on PancakeSwap. Learn how PancakeSwap reduces the total supply of CAKE through strategic burns and the pursuit of ultrasound CAKE.
As of April 2nd, 2024, PancakeSwap has successfully burned 0.189% of the CAKE total supply for March 2024. To calculate this percentage, we divided the total net mint of -731,042 CAKE by the initial total CAKE supply on March 4th, 2024. This marks the seventh consecutive month of CAKE total supply reduction, with a cumulative -2,103,059 CAKE net mint over September, October, November, December 2023, January, February, and March 2024.
In April 2024, PancakeSwap achieved a net mint of -731,042. This negative net mint indicates that more CAKE tokens were burned than minted during the month.
Please note that we have excluded CAKE mints that directly contribute to burning, calculating the mint based on raw CAKE/block emission (including emission changes over the months) for a precise monthly mint estimate.
Note: To ensure accuracy, we pro-rate weekly CAKE burns over two months. For example, burns occurring at the end of March and stretching into April receive a proportionate allocation between the two months.
