PancakeSwap Launches V3 Liquidity Pool on Solana, Brings Ultra-Low Fees

PancakeSwap CAKE

  • PancakeSwap V3 on Solana introduces concentrated liquidity and ultra-low fees starting at just 0.01% per swap.
  • Liquidity providers on Solana can now optimize capital use and earn 84 percent of total trading fees through PancakeSwap V3.

After PancakeSwap successfully planted the seeds of DeFi on BNB Chain and other networks, now their V3 version is officially live on Solana—a blockchain known for its agility and low cost. The presence of this new pool brings two things that users love the most: swap fees starting at 0.01% and a concentrated liquidity model that makes liquidity providers’ capital work smarter.

Ultra-Low Fees and Smarter Liquidity for Active Traders

For day traders, the reduction in transaction fees clearly feels like a perpetual discount. Furthermore, the ultra-low fee structure also reduces slippage, so that every token transfer runs smoothly without having to worry.

“Not only that, LPs get 84% of the fee,” said a user in the Solana chatroom, emphasizing how friendly the new scheme is. While the remaining 16% is evenly divided between the burn mechanism and the developer’s cash, driving CAKE deflation while ensuring operational funds remain available.

On the other hand, Solana does offer an ideal stage: high throughput, fast finality, and a TVL of around $12 billion. Liquidity providers will then be able to set a price range they’re targeting—much like a trading floor that’s only open during peak hours—so that capital isn’t spread out in vain.

If all goes well, dense liquidity at a single price point will narrow the bid-ask spread and provide a near-traditional exchange experience.

PancakeSwap Keeps Moving With Nonstop Multi-Chain Integrations

V3 on Solana is just one chapter in PancakeSwap’s expansion marathon. In early June, CNF reported on the platform’s partnership with WLFI to drive adoption of the USD1 stablecoin on BNB Chain through a multi-week bounty campaign.

Projects looking to participate had to open a USD1 trading pair and compete on volume, pool size, and long-term contribution. Such a strategy thickens liquidity while also attracting new users—a move that has proven effective in boosting PancakeSwap’s TVL across chains.

Flashing back to mid-May, we highlighted the launch of PancakeSwap Infinity, which introduced Hooks. This feature allows for custom logic and real-time swap fee adjustments within pools. The result? Record-breaking trading volumes, lower gas costs, and solid multichain support. In fact, the only em-dash in this article is a sign of how quickly the move from innovation to implementation has been.

Going back even further, in February, PancakeSwap launched dLIMIT and dTWAP on Arbitrum, Linea, and Base. Orbs, via its Layer-3 infrastructure, helped bring decentralized order execution with algorithmic strategies, including liquidity aggregation across DeFi platforms. At the time, many traders said they were just realizing that planned orders weren’t the preserve of centralized exchanges.

However, the spark of innovation didn’t always come from PancakeSwap itself. On the BNB Chain, the Maxwell upgrade cut block times to just 0.8 seconds. As a result, trading volume on PancakeSwap jumped by around 22%. Imagine, just one network upgrade instantly changed transaction speeds like replacing a regular toll road with a freeway.

Meanwhile, as of press time, CAKE is changing hands at about $2.29, up 5.12% over the last 7 days, driving its market cap to surpass the $730 million mark.
