PancakeSwap February Recap

# Q4 Roadmap AMA Recap

On October 10th, we held our Q4 Roadmap AMA in the PancakeSwap kitchen! If you missed it or want to review our discussion, keep reading!

This AMA featured a different format than usual. It began with an in-depth overview of Q3 before transitioning into our exciting plans for Q4. To wrap things up, Chef Kids summarized our recent emissions proposal.

If you want to relive the AMA, we recommend [watching the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROkjw47-Aa8&ab_channel=PancakeSwap) for a closer experience.

### **Let’s dive into what was discussed in the AMA!**

#### **Section 1: Q3 Overview**

**Hackathons**

One of the Q3 highlights was our participation in **two hackathons**—one at ETHGlobal Brussels and another online with Brevis. These hackathons drew much attention, with **64 innovative builds submitted and over $60,000 in prize money awarded**.

**PancakeSwap 4th anniversary**
In addition to the hackathons, we celebrated **PancakeSwap's 4th anniversary** at Token2049 with a community meetup, marking this milestone with some incredible achievements. PancakeSwap has now processed an astounding $836 billion in trading volume and has over 43 million unique wallet addresses.

**Product Launches**
The quarter also saw some important product launches, such as integrating our **Prediction product with Telegram Bot** , making it even easier for users to access DeFi on the go. We also introduced **PancakeSwap Quest** in beta, designed to boost user engagement through fun and interactive challenges. And let’s not forget the **EigenPie IFO**, our first IFO on Arbitrum, which saw over $15 million committed—a huge success as we expand across chains.

We continued expanding with **Zap**, which allows users to add liquidity with just one token. It is now available on BNB Chain, Arbitrum, and Ethereum.

**Emissions**
Over the past 12 months, **we’ve consistently maintained negative net emissions**, achieving a steady annual deflation rate of 1-2%, a key metric in maintaining the project's long-term sustainability.

#### **Section 2: Q4 Roadmap**

**PancakeSwap v4: Launching Soon**

While the launch was initially expected in Q3, additional improvements and comprehensive audits have delayed it slightly. The v4 launch will bring advanced trading tools like limit orders and TWAMM (Time-Weighted Average Market Making) and cost-saving features like Singleton and Flash Accounting. The launch is near, and more features will be added incrementally to ensure a smooth experience.

**New Trading Venue: A Game-Changer for Traders**

Details were revealed about the new trading venue that some users are already testing. The full rollout is expected in the coming weeks, and this new venue is set to enhance the trading experience and drive more volume to PancakeSwap.

**Multichain Expansion: More Chains, More Opportunities**

We remain committed to expanding to new chains, offering even more opportunities for our users, and increasing PancakeSwap’s presence across DeFi. Details will be revealed soon.

**Telegram Bot Updates: Enhancing the User Experience**

The Swap feature is being expanded to attract more retail users and improve accessibility to DeFi tools. This update will bring a more seamless and user-friendly experience, further widening PancakeSwap’s reach.

#### **Section 3: Emissions Proposal**

Chef Kids provided a concise overview of the emissions proposal, emphasizing our focus on balancing liquidity incentives with PancakeSwap's long-term sustainability. With PancakeSwap v4, developers will have new tools to enhance the platform, and traders will benefit from advanced features like limit orders and zero-slippage trades. V4 introduces dynamic fees and significant gas savings for liquidity providers, making liquidity provision more efficient and profitable.

These changes are designed to strengthen the entire PancakeSwap ecosystem, boosting trading volumes and increasing CAKE burns for greater sustainability.

Please check out the dedicated article on [our forum](https://forum.pancakeswap.finance/t/information-on-ecosystem-growth-and-emissions-adjustment/808) for a more detailed explanation of the emissions proposal.

This hackathon invited developers to create innovative hooks using the Brevis ZK-Coprocessor, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in PancakeSwap v4.

With a prize pool of $40,000, participants competed to build groundbreaking solutions that enhance the platform’s functionality, such as dynamic fee structures, liquidity management tools, and exclusive-access pools.

**Introducing KyberZap on PancakeSwap**

We’ve been making improvements regarding Liquidity Provisioning. We introduced the [Zap function](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/pancakeswap-exchange/zap), which integrates with Kyberswap. Adding liquidity is even easier for our users right now.

With Zap, you can provide V3 liquidity using just one of the tokens from the liquidity pool—no need to manually balance pairs. Simply set your desired price range, select the amount to provide, and execute. The feature will automatically trade your tokens most efficiently to form a balanced liquidity position with minimal price impact and slippage. Currently, Zap is available with all v3 pairs on BNB Chain and 20+ selected pairs for Ethereum and Arbitrum.

**New Fiat-on ramp Provider**

[We’ve integrated with Topper](https://blog.pancakeswap.finance/articles/pancake-swap-integrates-with-topper-to-expand-crypto-access), a Web3 infrastructure provider.  With this new integration, users can now buy crypto using credit cards, debit cards, Apple Pay, or Google Pay, and access a broader range of tokens like BNB, CAKE, and BTC.

To celebrate, we offered new Topper users 0% provider fees on their first purchase through PancakeSwap for a limited two-week period.

PancakeSwap 2024 July Recap

Gm PancakeSwap Community!

We’re excited to launch **[PancakeSwap Quest](https://quest.pancakeswap.finance/quests)** - Beta, the ultimate platform for DeFi quests. Explore, engage, earn, and build your DeFi profile like never before. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, PancakeSwap Quest offers an immersive, multi-chain experience that will elevate your DeFi journey.

## **Why PancakeSwap Quest?**

In today’s DeFi ecosystem, users often find themselves overwhelmed by the need to interact with multiple quest platforms and projects. Each one requires separate logins, interfaces, and tasks, making it unmanageable to stay engaged. PancakeSwap Quest is here to solve this problem by providing a unified platform where you can:

- **Streamline Your Experience:** PancakeSwap Quest will host PancakeSwap campaigns and partner quests directly on our platform. This means you can manage and complete your PancakeSwap campaigns from a single location, simplifying your DeFi journey and enhancing efficiency.
- **Enhance Engagement:** PancakeSwap Quest allows you to participate in various social media and on-chain tasks directly through our platform. Easily connect with PancakeSwap and other projects, complete tasks, and verify your participation—all in one place. Whether you're a seasoned DeFi user or new to the space, our interactive features make engaging with campaigns straightforward and efficient.
- **Simplify Development:** Our platform makes it easier to manage campaigns internally by eliminating the need to build and maintain separate APIs for each task. For projects looking to host campaigns with PancakeSwap, there’s no need to create additional APIs—everything is already built-in. This approach conserves resources, simplifies management, and enhances overall efficiency.

## **Key Features:**

1\. Personalized DeFi Profile: Customize your quest profile with a username and NFT avatar to represent your DeFi identity. **[Read the guide here about creating your quest profile.](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/nft-market/nft-profile-system/profile-guide)**

As a new user, you'll need to create and use "The Bunny" NFT collection, which is free and essential for your DeFi profile on the Quest platform. "The Bunny" NFT collection is exclusively for the Quest platform. If you already have a **[PancakeSwap NFT profile](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/nft-market/nft-profile-system/profile-guide)** from other NFT collections, you can simply connect your wallet to activate your Quest account.
