PancakeSwap unveils CAKE.PAD to replace IFOs for new token launches
PancakeSwap has launched CAKE.PAD, a simplified platform for early token access that requires no staking or lock-ups.
- Users can commit CAKE from non-custodial wallets to join early token events and claim new tokens when the events end.
- Built under CAKE Tokenomics 3.0, CAKE.PAD lowers barriers compared to the old system, making early token access more user-friendly and inclusive.
PancakeSwap has just unveiled CAKE.PAD, a new platform designed to streamline early token access events for users. Previously, users had to stake CAKE in specific pools and meet various requirements to access new token launches. CAKE.PAD now allows participation simply by committing CAKE from a non-custodial wallet.
There are no staking requirements or lock-ups. Users simply commit CAKE during active events and, when the event ends, claim new tokens from projects before they list on exchanges.
As the team explained in the blog post, after the CAKE Tokenomics 3.0 update , the goal was to make early token access events more open and user-friendly. They’ve also had success with TGE launches with Binance Wallet, which made them realize that a simpler model was possible — one where users could participate by simply committing CAKE from their wallets, without staking or lock-ups.
The team also said that CAKE.PAD is built with CAKE utility in mind. It’s designed to attract more users while increasing CAKE usage and token burning, creating a deflationary effect. This adds an extra bullish layer for the CAKE token, which recently broke through a key resistance level that had capped price action since late December, fueled by BNB reaching a new ATH .
