PancakeSwap Unveils CakePad, a New Platform for Early Access to Tokens
Date: 2025-10-07 Author: Gabriel Deangelo Categories: BUSINESS
Decentralized exchange PancakeSwap announced the launch of CakePad, an updated version of its existing initial coin offering (ICO) solution, formerly known as Initial Farm Offerings (IFO). The new format provides users with a simple way to obtain new assets using CAKE tokens, without having to lock funds or meet additional requirements.
According to the developers, any crypto wallet owner can now deposit CAKE during the sale and subsequently exchange them for the offered tokens. This approach eliminates bureaucratic barriers and makes participation accessible even for beginners.
The main difference between CakePad and its counterparts on centralized exchanges is its complete non-custodial nature. Users retain control of their funds, and the system does not require accumulating points or fulfilling complex participation requirements. PancakeSwap emphasizes: "No staking, no locks—just use CAKE and earn new tokens."
One of the platform's key features is its deflationary model. All fees paid by participants when purchasing tokens through CakePad will be completely burned, helping to reduce the supply of CAKE in circulation and support its price growth. Furthermore, users will be able to participate in multiple sales with no limit on the number of tokens contributed.
The developers have also implemented a "fair tiered subscription tax" system. It adjusts the fee based on interest in a particular sale: the more participants, the lower the rate. This mechanism makes the process fairer and encourages active community participation.
While specific projects and dates for the first sale on CakePad have not yet been announced, the PancakeSwap team emphasizes that the launch of the new platform is part of the CAKE Tokenomics 3.0 strategy. This initiative aims to increase the resilience of the CAKE token and reduce its total supply over the long term.
As part of Tokenomics 3.0, PancakeSwap aims to achieve annual deflation of approximately 4% and reduce the total CAKE supply in circulation by 20% by 2030. This is planned to be achieved through token buyback programs and subsequent burns.
Earlier in August, PancakeSwap expanded its functionality by adding perpetual swaps on shares of major companies such as Apple, Amazon, and Tesla, as part of its commitment to product diversification and strengthening the exchange ecosystem.
