Coinbase to Finally Tackle PancakeSwap? The BNB Chain DEX Hits Celeb Status Amidst Market Frenzy! 🚀

by

In a move that suggests Coinbase is now playing catch-up rather than setting the pace, they have decided to grace us with the addition of PancakeSwap’s native altcoin to their illustrious listing roadmap. Because what’s more thrilling than watching a crypto giant consider adding a token that’s been riding the DeFi rollercoaster, right? 🎢

Apparently, Coinbase’s prized clientele may soon unlock the joy of trading PancakeSwap (CAKE), the darling of the decentralized exchange (DEX) universe hailing from the mysterious BNB Chain. Truly, the dawn of a new era—so long, traditional trading, hello chaos and free-for-alls! 🥞

PancakeSwap, which has spread its gluten-free wings across multiple blockchains, is now the reigning monarch in DEX volumes. A staggering $228.03 billion in the past month alone, outpacing Uniswap’s modest $95.706 billion—impressive until you realize they’re both competing in the sport of statistical showmanship. DeFi Llama reports this brave pancake-flipper has set a recent record with a whopping $173 billion in May—because nothing says stability like breaking your own records, right? 🎉

Alas, all this bullish fanfare hasn’t yet caused CAKE’s price to sizzle: it presently trades at a paltry $2.25—down over 7% in the last 24 hours and nearly 11% across the week. Perhaps investors are more enamored with the volume than the actual value. Who can blame them? 📉

The announcement on Wednesday that CAKE might soon strut onto Coinbase’s roadmap is quite the buzz—yet the token remains on the managerial fence, waiting to see if this heralds a surge or just another techie tease. The roadmap, dating from 2022, is meant to keep everyone honest and prevent the usual frontrunning shenanigans, which everyone loves—except when they lose money, of course. 🧐

Meanwhile, Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong, the embodiment of crypto optimism, has previously declared an ambition to list as many tokens as meet their high standards. One might wonder whether CAKE will rise to this lofty expectation or fall yet again, like a souffle knocked over by the hand of fate. 🍰
