Gearing Up for the Battle of the DEXes on BNB Chain

PancakeSwap is fortifying its position as the dominant Decentralized Exchange (DEX) on BNB Chain by integrating a feature to lower trading fees and moving forward with the launch of version 3 swap and liquidity.

The chefs at PancakeSwap are facing serious competition with the anticipated deployment of Uniswap v3, the arrival of Trader Joe, the presence of BiSwap and DODO, and the emergence of native protocols such as Thena, Baby Doge Swap, Wombat Exchange.

Following a successful deployment on Ethereum, PancakeSwap’s Market Maker Integration is now live on BNB Chain. The feature provides additional liquidity for swaps involving two major coins, $BNB and $ETH, resulting in reduced slippage and lower costs for traders.

“PancakeSwap will not charge any trading fees for the BNB Smart Chain Market Maker Integration, providing users with the lowest trading fees on the platform,” according to a Medium post.

In even bigger news, the DEX is teasing the launch of PancakeSwap v3 for the first week of April. In preparation for the upgrade, the dev team said there will be an airdrop, and suggested that users “Add liquidity on BSC PCS now.”

PancakeSwap is the largest of many projects based on a fork from Uniswap v2. The “business source license” for Uniswap v3 is set to expire in April. Right now, the features of PancakeSwap v3 and Uniswap v4 remain more in the realm of possibilities rather than hard answers.
