Last updated 1 month ago

Was this helpful?

This FAQ page answers some of the more commonly asked questions from the PancakeSwap community.

Is PancakeSwap safe? Has PancakeSwap been Audited?

See for yourself:

  • Transparent:

    • We’re built on open-source software: our site and all our Smart Contracts are publicly visible for maximum transparency.

  • Security best practices:

    • The chefs use multisig for all contracts.

    • Our contracts’ time-lock gives you peace of mind.

How can I stake CAKE?

What is the difference between staking and farming?

Staking in Syrup Pools and farming with Yield Farming are both ways to earn more CAKE by supporting PancakeSwap.

How do I farm?

Where can I view the PancakeSwap roadmap?

How do I connect my wallet to BNB Smart Chain and PancakeSwap?

What's the best wallet for PancakeSwap?

Why is my transaction failing?

When will you open more pools?

New Pools are added to PancakeSwap frequently. There will always be an announcement before the launch of new pools.

Did Farm APR calculation change?

Previously, rewards earned by LP Token-holders generated from trading fees were not included in Farm APR calculations. APR calculations now include these rewards, and better reflect the expected APR for Farm pairs.

How do I get airdrops?

Whenever there is an official airdrop on PancakeSwap it will be announced along with the requirements.

Please remember anyone can airdrop tokens to PancakeSwap users since every transaction is public on BscScan. Be sure to do your own research when it comes to non-official airdrops. To protect your funds, we recommend you don't use a smart contract you don't understand from a source you don't trust.

How can I report a bug?

Where can I view smart contracts?

Why does it say I have no BNB balance?

How do I vote?

What is the max supply of CAKE?

What are the treasury funds used for?

The treasury funds are used to cover the expenses involved in running PancakeSwap. These expenses include salaries, audits, prizes, hosting, upkeep, bounties, etc.

Where can I check the Analytics?

You can check the analytics of PancakeSwap by click on the "Analytics" tab on the top menu or by clicking the link below.

Is PancakeSwap protected from flashloan attacks?

PancakeSwap's vault has anti-flashloan protection. PancakeSwap’s CAKE token isn’t vulnerable to flash loan attacks. Unlike vulnerable tokens, CAKE token minting is predefined, and can’t be adjusted in a single transaction. Ownership cannot be transferred outside of MasterChef contract.

PancakeSwap’s other smart contracts, like IFO and AutoPool, are protected as well; they prevent other contracts from interacting with them, reducing the scope of vector attacks.

Can I join the PancakeSwap team?

What is SYRUP?

SYRUP was a part of the staking process earlier in PancakeSwap's life. SYRUP was discontinued when a security issue was discovered and is no longer a part of PancakeSwap.
