In the world of decentralized exchanges (DEXs), change is constant. Every platform is working to improve, offering users more control, better tools, and an overall smoother experience. The DEX space has come a long way, thanks to the innovation and hard work of many protocols that have set the foundation for what we have today. We’re incredibly grateful for these pioneers, who’ve played an essential role in building the DeFi space to where it is now.
PancakeSwap Infinity aims to build beyond that foundation by offering an open, adaptable ecosystem that grows with its users. It’s not just about adding new features—it’s about giving users the flexibility to take control of their DeFi journey and providing an open space where everyone can contribute, innovate, and shape the future.
One of the uniqueness of PancakeSwap Infinity compared to other DEXs is the addition of supporting multiple liquidity pool types. Many DEXs offer just one or two basic pool options, but PancakeSwap Infinity supports Concentrated Liquidity Pools (CLAMM) and Liquidity Book AMM Pools (LBAMM). Each of these pool types has the capability to support hooks on top—it's the first LBAMM pool with hooks.
The CLAMM pool type is ideal for liquidity providers who want more control and efficiency. It allows you to concentrate liquidity within a specific price range, increasing capital efficiency and deepening the pool's liquidity.
Key Features:
Best For: Liquidity providers who are comfortable with more active liquidity management.
The LBAMM pool type offers a simpler option. Pioneered by Trader Joe’s, LBAMM divides liquidity into discrete price bins, where trades within each bin occur without slippage. It’s a great choice for low-volatility pairs, providing a smooth and cost-effective trading experience.
Key Features:
Best for: Liquidity Providers prefer a hands-off approach and want a lower-complexity strategy.
PancakeSwap Infinity is setting a new standard for flexibility in DeFi, and we’re just getting started. As the platform evolves, more pool types will be supported, offering even more versatility. No other DEX has offered this level of flexibility before. The PancakeSwap Infinity architecture allows for integrating new pool types and hook support without needing to redeploy smart contracts or release a new version. As the DeFi ecosystem evolves, emerging AMM curve innovations can be seamlessly implemented while keeping the powerful hook functionality intact.
DeFi thrives on collaboration, and PancakeSwap Infinity is fully open-source. This means anyone—developers, creators, and the wider community—can contribute to the platform, add new features, and help improve it over time. By being open-source, PancakeSwap Infinity encourages continuous innovation and ensures the platform stays ahead of the curve.
But it’s also important to recognize that none of this would be possible without the work of other protocols. They’ve laid the groundwork for all this potential, and we’re grateful for their contributions.
PancakeSwap Infinity is just the beginning. With flexible liquidity pools, customizable fee structures, and open-source collaboration, the platform is designed to keep up with the ever-evolving DeFi space. As the market grows, PancakeSwap Infinity will adapt, offering users even more ways to take control of their DeFi experience.
We’re incredibly excited about what’s ahead. The future of DeFi is full of limitless possibilities, and PancakeSwap Infinity is committed to being an open, collaborative ecosystem where everyone can contribute and innovate. We’re grateful to be part of this journey and to work alongside the incredible community of builders, traders, and innovators who continue to shape DeFi.
As we move forward, PancakeSwap Infinity will continue evolving and offer everyone more opportunities. Whether you’re a seasoned DeFi user or starting, we can’t wait to see what you’ll create with us.
