- On December 4, PancakeSwap’s daily trade volume hit $1.27 billion, the most the decentralized exchange has seen since March of this year.
Data from PancakeSwap indicates that following the DEX’s December 4 launch of its token launch platform PancakeSwap SpringBoard, the daily trading volume of BNB Chain’s largest decentralized exchange surged by over 60% from the day before.
By trading volume, PancakeSwap is presently ranked second on DeFi Llama’s DEX leaderboard, surpassing Aerodrome, Orca, and Raydium. The marketplace has amassed $2.32 billion in cryptocurrency trade volume during the last day.
Before yesterday’s announcement of the launch platform for BNB-powered meme coins—which many have compared to pump—the DEX had not been able to surpass the $1 billion mark since March 2024.fun, the token launch platform powered by Solana that is well-known for being a marketplace for meme coins.
Pump.fun’s daily trade volume decreased by over 13% from $230.4 million on December 3 to $201.4 million on December 4, according to data from Dune Analytics. As of this writing, 4.3 million tokens have been launched on the platform.
Solana-powered meme coins gained popularity in the cryptocurrency world thanks to Pump.fun. Pump.fun accounted for 62.3% of Solana’s DEX transactions in November, as crypto.news previously reported.
By giving people a place to generate and exchange BNB Chain meme coins without the need for technical knowledge, PancakeSwap Springboard could help Binance Coin. Following PancakeSwap Springboard’s introduction, BNB hit a record-breaking $782.
Furthermore, on December 4, BNB’s market value of $113 billion overtook Solana’s, becoming it the fifth largest cryptocurrency.
However, it is unclear if this tendency will continue. According to data from crypto.news, BNB has decreased by 4.78% during the last day as of this writing. At $734.21, the token is presently in circulation. Additionally, BNB’s market value has decreased to $106 billion.
