We're thrilled to announce an exciting new campaign that adds a flavorful twist to our Fixed-Term Staking product! Dive into our WBNB Fixed staking Combo Rewards campaign, where staking WBNB earns you a shot at a whopping $5,000 extra reward pool plus the regular APR reward.

**Campaign Duration:** From March 26th 1100 AM UTC to April 9th 2024 23:59 UTC

**How to Participate:**

During the campaign period, you need to stake your WBNB tokens for 90 days in the WBNB simple staking pool **[here](https://pancakeswap.finance/simple-staking?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=all&utm_campaign=socials&utm_id=WBNBsimplestakingcampaign)**. By staking, you automatically qualify for our Combo Rewards, giving you the chance to earn from our extra $5,000 reward pool.

**Part 1: Lucky Draw for Stakers ($1,500 USDT)**

- Stake a minimum of 0.1 WBNB for 90 days [**here**](https://pancakeswap.finance/simple-staking?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=all&utm_campaign=socials&utm_id=WBNBsimplestakingcampaign).

- 100 random lucky winners will be selected to win $15 each.

**Part 2: Stake More to Share More Rewards ($3,500 USDT)**

Stake WBNB for 90 days and earn your share from a $3,500 reward pool. Your share depends on the amount of WBNB you stake compared to the total WBNB staked by all new users during the campaign. Here's how it will be calculated:

Your Share = (Your Staked WBNB with 90 days duration / Total Staked WBNB) * Total Reward Pool 

**Example:**

Let's say during the campaign, a total of 1000 WBNB is staked. You stake 100 WBNB for 90 days. Your share would be calculated as:
Your Share = (100 / 1000) * $3,500 = $350

_If you stake WBNB multiple times during the campaign, your total share will be the sum of all the times you staked. For example, if you staked 1 WBNB for 90 days on the first day, then again staked 5 more WBNB midway through the campaign, and then again staked another 10 WBNB at the end of the campaign, your total staked WBNB would be 1+5+10 = 16 WBNB. Your share of the reward will be calculated based on the 16 WBNB so that you can stake it multiple times._

You can track your share of reward here: https://dune.com/queries/3551788/5977009

**How to Stake:**

- Simply stake your WBNB on our platform during the campaign period by visiting this link: https://pancakeswap.finance/simple-staking.

- For a step-by-step guide on how to use Simple-Term Staking, check out this guide: https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/syrup-pool/new-cake-pool/fixed-term-staking

**Terms and Conditions:**

- Rewards will be distributed within 14 days after the end of the campaign.

- Only new WBNB staked during the campaign will count for Combo Rewards; existing stakes locked in pools will not be eligible. If your WBNB is already staked in the simple staking pool, those WBNB are not eligible for combo rewards. However, if you want to stake more WBNB during the campaign, then you are eligible for rewards. Only newly staked WBNB are eligible for combo rewards; existing WBNB staked in the pool are not eligible.

Get ready to stake, earn, and win with PancakeSwap's Combo Rewards! Don't miss out on this limited-time opportunity to sweeten your staking journey.

Happy Staking

Stake WBNB on PancakeSwap to Win Combo Rewards: $5,000 Extra Reward Pool

# 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.

## 🎂**Pancake4Ever**💛

Along with our Petite Four events, we have **👀**MORE exciting surprises lined up for our birthday month - stay tuned for the announcements. Let’s make this celebration truly unforgettable together! 

The Chefs


We're excited to introduce a series of community events under our dazzling “Pancake4Ever” birthday theme.

Pancake4Ever: Celebrating 4 Years of PancakeSwap with a Milestone Like No Other!

In celebration of PancakeSwap's fourth anniversary, we're excited to introduce our first-ever **[Prediction Telegram Bot - Beta](https://t.me/pancakefi_bot)** for BNB predictions on the BNB Chain. This new bot brings the excitement of our prediction market directly to your favorite messaging app, making it easier and more convenient to participate. To mark this special occasion, we're giving away $4,444 in rewards on September 22nd, our fourth birthday!

#### A New Way to Predict: Bringing Predictions to Your Fingertips

**[PancakeSwap prediction](https://pancakeswap.finance/prediction?token=BNB)** has always been a community favorite, allowing users to forecast BNB prices every 5 minutes. Now, with our **[Prediction Telegram Bot](https://t.me/pancakefi_bot)**, you can enjoy the same features as our web version, but with added convenience and accessibility. Whether you’re on the go or prefer Telegram, you have more ways than ever to engage with the market.

**Key Features:**
- **Supported Token:** BNB on BNB Chain
- **Round Duration:** 5 minutes
- **Fees:** 3% of each round’s total pot goes to the treasury, supporting buybacks, burns, and future development

#### How to Connect Your Wallet?

**1\. On Desktop**
You may only use a mobile wallet on your phone with Desktop Telegram mini app by scanning the QR code either via MetaMask or WalletConnect. You will need to confirm transactions and signings on your mobile.

**2\. On Mobile**
Use MetaMask or WalletConnect: You will be directed to MetaMask for transactions and signing. After signing, you will need to switch back to Telegram to continue.

_For a detailed guide on how to connect your wallet, please refer to this doc:_ **[https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/prediction/prediction-mini-app](https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/products/prediction/prediction-mini-app)**

#### How the Prediction Telegram Bot Works:
At the initial launch, the Prediction Telegram app won't be available in the Telegram app store. Instead, users can access the product through a direct web link and by interacting with the Telegram bot. This means you'll need to use the provided link or bot to get started with the prediction features. _(Please note that the bot is currently in its beta phase.)_

**1\. Stay Mobile:** Open the **[PancakeSwap Prediction Telegram Bot](https://t.me/pancakefi_bot)** on Telegram.

**2\. Predict:** Choose " Up" if you expect the price to rise or " Down" if you think it will fall. Enter your prediction amount and wait for the round to close. If your prediction is correct, you’ll earn a share of the prize pool, multiplied by the round’s multiplier. (The minimum amount you can predict is 0.001 BNB.)

![Screenshot 2024-09-11 at 13.09.12.png](https://sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/strapi.space/909ae136aea485b6b02ed2542138c119.png)

**Example:** If BNB is currently priced at $520 and you predict it will rise in the next 5 minutes, open the Telegram bot, click " Up," and enter your amount. If the price increases to $525, you'll win a share of the prize pool based on your prediction.

Just like our web version, the Telegram bot offers an intuitive and straightforward way to place predictions —no need to navigate multiple tabs or log in separately.

#### [ENDED] Celebrate with Us: Win Your Share of $4,444 on September 22nd
