GM Community, 

The cryptocurrency landscape's evolution continues to redefine the financial realm as we know it. In a bold stride towards the future, we embark on an extraordinary journey by deploying our suite of products on Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) chain. This development signifies a paradigm shift in our perception (DeFi), promising enhanced security, scalability, and accessibility for our platform and bringing our Swap, Liquidity Provision, and upcoming Yield Farming to this Layer 2 Chain.

## Base: Pioneering Ethereum Layer 2 Chain

Base, a collaborative effort between Coinbase and Optimism, stands as an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) chain that presents developers with an avenue to construct decentralized applications (dApps) efficiently. This innovative L2 solution boasts a range of benefits that make it a compelling platform for DeFi development. Base is securely built upon Ethereum's foundation, ensuring top-notch security and scalability. Leveraging Coinbase's expertise, Base seamlessly integrates Coinbase products, offering easy fiat onramps and access to the expansive Coinbase ecosystem.

## Why PancakeSwap is Building on Base

Our decision to build on Base reflects a strategic move towards a more robust and sustainable DeFi ecosystem. By utilizing Base's security measures and Ethereum compatibility, we position ourselves to offer users a reliable and low-cost trading experience. Furthermore, the integration with Coinbase's ecosystem brings the power of mainstream crypto adoption to our users, making it a significant milestone in pursuing a more inclusive DeFi landscape.

## PancakeSwap's Array of Offerings on Base

We are expanding our product lineup on Base, introducing a suite of offerings to cater to users' diverse needs:
  
**1. Swap Base tokens with fees as low as 0.01%**

The core of PancakeSwap's functionality remains intact on Base, allowing users to seamlessly swap various tokens with transaction fees as low as 0.01% and increased efficiency. With our multi-tier fee structure ranging from 0.01% to 1%, you can choose the fee that aligns with your preferences and selected liquidity pools.

The curtain rises on Base's grand entrance as the fifth island in the [**"Traverse the Treasure Islands"**](https://galxe.com/PancakeSwap/campaign/GCJ7ZUWTKU) Galxe campaign.  By seamlessly integrating PancakeSwap onto Base, users are invited to join the campaign by participating in token swapping, liquidity provisioning, and fulfilling social media tasks to amass loyalty points and unlock exclusive NFTs.

Please note that if Base provides any incentives, we will distribute them among various stakeholders, including the CAKE community, CAKE stakers, projects contributing to PancakeSwap's development, and ecosystem contributors. However, Base has yet to communicate any incentives at this point. We encourage our users to actively participate in the Base ecosystem and take full advantage of the [**"Traverse the Treasure Islands"**](https://galxe.com/PancakeSwap/campaign/GCJ7ZUWTKU) campaign. 

As the world of DeFi continues to flourish, PancakeSwap's integration into Base epitomizes the relentless pursuit of innovation. The secure and developer-friendly atmosphere cultivated by Base, paired with the comprehensive array of products offered by PancakeSwap, forges a harmonious relationship that promises heightened accessibility, reduced fees, and an uninterrupted user experience. This stride towards DeFi marks a monumental leap, and the [**"Traverse the Treasure Islands"**](https://galxe.com/PancakeSwap/campaign/GCJ7ZUWTKU) campaign invites users to partake in this transformative journey actively. With the horizons of DeFi now expanded, PancakeSwap assumes its role at the forefront of the charge toward an inclusive and efficient crypto-driven future.

Setting the Stage for DeFi Mass Adoption:  PancakeSwap's Low-Fee and User-Friendly Approach on Base

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.

# **1. Multiple Liquidity Pools: More Options, More Flexibility**

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.**

## **A. Concentrated Liquidity Pools (CLAMM)**:

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:**

- **Higher Capital Efficiency:** Providing liquidity within a narrower range minimizes price impact.
- **Gas Efficiency:** Gas-efficient when adding liquidity in broad ranges, reducing transaction costs.
- **Flexibility:** Suitable for high and low-volatile pairs, offering various strategies.

**Best For:** Liquidity providers who are comfortable with more active liquidity management.

## **B. Liquidity Book AMM or “Bin Pool” (LBAMM):**

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:**

- **Zero Slippage**: Trades within a price bin happen without price impact.
- **Gas Efficiency**: Liquidity in LBAMM is represented by fungible ERC-20 tokens, making it easier and cheaper to adjust your position.
- **Flexibility**: Ideal for low-volatility pairs with support for different liquidity shapes.

**Best for:** Liquidity Providers prefer a hands-off approach and want a lower-complexity strategy.

# **2. Hook Support on Every Pool Type, A Future-Proof Architecture**

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.

# **3. An Open-Source Ecosystem for Innovation**

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. 

# **Looking Ahead: The Future of DeFi is Open and Limitless**

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.

In the world of decentralized exchanges (DEXs), change is constant.

What is PancakeSwap Infinity, and how does it set itself apart from other DEXs?

[**PancakeSwap Infinity**](https://blog.pancakeswap.finance/articles/pancake-swap-infinity-is-now-live-formerly-pancake-swap-v4) has arrived, and it’s here to make Farming simpler than ever. With Infinity Pools, liquidity providers can now earn trading fees and Farming rewards without any extra steps. Simply add liquidity to eligible pools and start earning immediately — no staking LP tokens are required!

### What Makes Infinity Farming Different?

In **PancakeSwap v2 and v3**, Farming required two steps:

1\. Add liquidity to a pool

2\. Manually stake LP tokens into a separate Farm contract

With **PancakeSwap Infinity**, the process is now **streamlined**:

1\. Add liquidity to eligible Infinity Pools and automatically start earning trading fees and Farming rewards — there is no need to stake your LP tokens.

This simplified approach makes Farming more accessible than ever, whether you're new to DeFi or an experienced pro!

### How Are Rewards Distributed?

You'll automatically begin earning rewards once you add liquidity to eligible Farms. However, rewards are only given to **in-range positions** (liquidity earning fees).

Rewards are distributed **proportionally** to the fees earned by your position during each **epoch**.

### What’s an Epoch?

An **epoch** is a fixed period (currently 8 hours) in which rewards are calculated and distributed. Epochs occur at the following times:

- 00:00 UTC
- 08:00 UTC
- 16:00 UTC

After each epoch ends, rewards are processed and sent to eligible positions. You can claim your rewards at the end of the epoch in a single, gas-efficient transaction. Any unclaimed rewards will roll over to the next epoch, ensuring no earnings are lost or expired.

Want to learn more about how it works? Check out our **[documentation](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/trade/pancakeswap-infinity/farms).**

### Farms Available at Launch

To kick off Farming on Infinity, we're launching the following liquidity pools eligible for Farming rewards:

- USDT-BNB
- USDC-BNB
- BTCB-BNB
- ETH-BNB
- CAKE-USDT
- CAKE-BNB
- BNB-USDT
- USDC-USDT

...and more will roll out over time — stay tuned!

**Note:** Providing liquidity in DeFi carries risks, including **impermanent loss**. Make sure to fully understand how providing liquidity works before participating.

But we’re just getting started. Each milestone has been an important step, but there’s so much more to do. With **PancakeSwap Infinity**, we’re ready to go even further and push the boundaries of what DeFi can achieve.

### The Road Ahead: DeFi Without Limits
So, what exactly is **PancakeSwap Infinity?** And why did we rebrand?

The rebrand to **Infinity** reflects our vision for an **open-ended future** in DeFi. **“Infinity”** isn’t just a name—it represents the endless possibilities we see ahead. We want to create a platform that keeps evolving, grows with users' needs, and always stays ahead of the curve.

We’re not just adding new features. **PancakeSwap Infinity** is about giving you the freedom to create, innovate, and take control of your DeFi experience. Whether you're trading, providing liquidity, or developing new strategies, we want you to have the tools to experiment, maximize returns, and unlock new opportunities.

The rebrand is our way of saying **we’re ready for** **the next level**. **PancakeSwap Infinity** is designed to adapt and grow, giving you the power to shape your own DeFi journey.

## Key Features to Watch For

Now, let’s dive into some of the exciting features that come with PancakeSwap Infinity:

### **1. Multiple Pool Types**

For the first time, we’ll be supporting two types of liquidity pools:

- **CLAMM (Concentrated Liquidity AMM)**: This pool lets liquidity providers concentrate their liquidity in specific price ranges. This means more capital efficiency and less slippage.
- **LBAMM (Liquidity Book AMM)**: 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.

Each of these pool types has the capability to support hooks on top—it's the first LBAMM pool with hooks. And we’re just getting started—we’ll add even more pool types in the future. ***No other DEX has offered this level of flexibility before.***

### **2. Full Fee Control for Liquidity Providers**

With **PancakeSwap Infinity**, liquidity providers get full control over their fee structure. No more being locked into fixed fee tiers! You’ll be able to choose between **static** or **dynamic** fee tier pool, depending on your strategy and market conditions.

### **3. Hooks – Endless Customization**

One of the coolest features of **PancakeSwap Infinity** is the ability to use **Hooks**. These are external smart contracts that can be added to liquidity pools. They allow liquidity providers and traders to:

- Add **trading fee discounts**
- Set up **dynamic rewards**
- Gain **more control over liquidity**

The possibilities with **Hooks** are endless, allowing you to customize your strategies and enhance your DeFi experience completely.

### **4. Open-Source for Collaboration**

The future of DeFi is all about **collaboration**. That’s why **PancakeSwap Infinity** will be open-source. This means anyone—developers, creators, or the community—can help improve the platform, add new features, and build on the existing system.

By making the platform open-source, we’re encouraging innovation and fast-tracking the growth of the DeFi space. The more people contribute, the faster we can push the boundaries of what’s possible.

### Looking Toward the Future of DeFi

**PancakeSwap Infinity** is just the beginning. DeFi is still in its early stages, and we’re excited to be part of shaping its future. With **Infinity**, we’re building a platform that can grow and evolve alongside the DeFi space.

The future of DeFi is full of **limitless possibilities**, and we’re just getting started. We can’t wait to see what you’ll create, and we’re thrilled to be on this journey together.

PancakeSwap Infinity gives liquidity providers complete control of their fee structure. Unlike previous versions with fixed fee tiers, you can choose between **dynamic** or **static** fee pools based on your strategy.

**Key Features:**

- **Static Fees:** A fixed fee is set at the time of pool creation. This fee remains constant, offering consistency and predictability for both liquidity providers and traders.
- **Dynamic Fees:** Dynamic fees are determined using a hook, which allows for flexible, programmable logic. The fee can be adjusted based on various factors such as market volatility, liquidity conditions, or trader-specific incentives like volume-based discounts.

With the flexibility to choose your fee structure, PancakeSwap Infinity helps you tailor your strategy for better performance.

Learn more about our multiple pool types from our documentation **[here](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/trade/pancakeswap-infinity/pool-types)**.

### 3. Hooks: Transform Your Trading and Liquidity Experience with Custom Features
![2 - Hooks.jpg](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/6b47f2976b74472d747ce5f19c1a98f5.jpg)
PancakeSwap Infinity now supports Hooks, taking your trading and liquidity management to the next level. Hooks are externally deployed contracts that act as add-ons, allowing projects and developers to deploy and apply custom features that enhance their strategies. Whether you want to access trading fee discounts, dynamic rewards, or better control over your liquidity, Hooks makes it possible.

### **For Liquidity Providers: Optimize Your Returns and Minimize Risks**

Hooks offer liquidity providers new ways to optimize their strategy— returns, minimizing risks, or automating management. Liquidity Providers can filter and choose pools based on the hooks that best match their goals.

**Hooks for Liquidity Providers:**

- **PancakeSwap Dynamic Fee**: Optimize your returns by penalizing arbitrageurs and rewarding liquidity providers with higher returns during periods of market volatility.

We’re continually working to deploy more hooks to enhance your experience. Learn more about our Hooks from our documentation **[here](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/trade/pancakeswap-infinity/hooks/dynamic-fee-hook)**.

### For Traders: Exclusive Trading Fee Discount (Coming Soon)

PancakeSwap’s Smart Router automatically selects the most favorable pool for your trade, ensuring the best rates—whether from a standard pool (v2, v3) or a Hook-enabled pool (Infinity). If you have a preferred hook, you can manually choose a pool with that specific hook for a more customized trading experience.

**Hooks for Traders (Coming Soon):**

- **VIP Discount**: You can save on fees based on your trading volume, rewarding high-frequency traders with lower costs over time.

### 4. Gas Savings: Faster, Cheaper, Smarter Transactions

![4. Gas Savings.jpg](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/8afb896e3ca2cf534be25a36c546570e.jpg)

PancakeSwap Infinity has been designed to make your trading and liquidity experience faster, cheaper, and more efficient. With new gas-saving features, we've significantly reduced pool creation costs by up to **99%**. Swapping ETH and BNB now **costs half the gas** compared to ERC-20 tokens, benefiting liquidity providers and users by making the platform more affordable.

### **Key Gas-Saving Features:**

**A. Lower Gas Fees with Singleton and Flash Accounting**

With PancakeSwap Infinity, we’ve simplified the infrastructure, reducing gas costs. By consolidating all liquidity pools into a single contract (the Singleton Contract), pool creation costs have been reduced by up to **99%**. Flash Accounting improves efficiency further by processing multiple transactions at once, lowering the cost for each swap. This results in faster and cheaper trades, saving both time and money.

**B. Native Token Support: Lower Gas for ETH & BNB Liquidity Pools**

Native token liquidity pools, such as those for ETH and BNB, are now more affordable. Thanks to our updated platform architecture, swapping ETH or BNB **costs half the gas** of swapping ERC-20 tokens, offering a more efficient and cost-effective trading experience.

**C. ERC-6909 Accounting: Save More on Frequent Transactions**

For active traders and liquidity providers, **ERC-6909 accounting** offers additional gas savings. Rather than transferring tokens back and forth between your wallet and the platform, ERC-6909 tokens represent your assets directly within the contract. This reduces the need for external transfers, lowering gas fees for each swap—a perfect feature for frequent users.

**D. Donate: Reward Liquidity Providers with Lower Gas Costs**

The Donate() feature allows anyone to reward liquidity providers directly with minimal cost. Whether you want to support liquidity in your favorite pools or incentivize providers, Donate() ensures you can offer rewards without the high costs typically associated with traditional reward systems. This encourages more liquidity and creates a healthier, more active platform.

Learn more about our gas-saving features from our documentation **[here](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/trade/pancakeswap-infinity)**.

### Open-Source Licensing

At PancakeSwap Infinity, our mission is simple: to support open-source values and help grow the entire DeFi space. **The code for PancakeSwap Infinity will be released under an open-source license,** allowing developers to create, customize, and collaborate. By embracing openness, we’re building a community where everyone can contribute and push the limits of what DeFi can achieve together.

## PancakeSwap Infinity: Unlock Infinite Possibilities for DeFi

PancakeSwap Infinity is here to unlock new possibilities and bring greater flexibility to your DeFi journey. With powerful tools to customize your strategy, reduce costs, and optimize your returns, you can innovate, grow, and succeed in a rapidly evolving market.

Whether you’re a trader, liquidity provider, or developer, PancakeSwap Infinity offers the flexibility and scalability to help you achieve your goals.

PancakeSwap users can now easily swap Solana-based tokens directly on our [**interface**](https://solana.pancakeswap.finance/swap)! This exciting new feature allows you to swap Solana tokens quickly and seamlessly while enjoying the same smooth, user-friendly experience you expect from PancakeSwap.

## **Expanding Solana’s Accessibility**

The goal is to enhance Solana’s accessibility by enabling Solana-based tokens for trading on PancakeSwap. Introducing PancakeSwap to Solana will broaden access to the ecosystem, allowing users to easily trade Solana-based tokens while enjoying a top-tier UI/UX experience in DeFi.

## **Getting Started: Solana Token Swaps**

![Frame 53361.jpg](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/4c03607ffc638e3ddc19c463778850f6.jpg)

At launch, Solana-based token swaps will be available through the **[PancakeSwap interface](https://solana.pancakeswap.finance/swap)**, with trades routed through an external protocol. This approach provides immediate access to Solana liquidity without the need for PancakeSwap to deploy native liquidity pools on Solana right away. As a result, users can enjoy efficient swaps with deep liquidity and minimal slippage, all within the familiar PancakeSwap interface.

**Note**:

- PancakeSwap will not charge additional fees beyond the standard fees set by the external protocol, ensuring a smooth trading experience for all users.
- Since Solana does not yet have native PancakeSwap pools, features like CAKE burns, LP rewards, etc, won’t be available on PancakeSwap initially.

### **Everyone’s Favorite DEX coming to Solana**

Solana-based token swaps are now available on the **[PancakeSwap interface](https://solana.pancakeswap.finance/swap),** allowing you to start swapping Solana tokens today. This initial phase will help us gather feedback and improve the experience. We're committed to refining and optimizing the platform to provide the best DeFi experience possible.
