PancakeSwap Rebrands v4 as 'Infinity' With Major Customization and Gas-Saving Upgrades

PancakeSwap, a decentralized exchange (DEX) with a total value locked (TVL) of $1.7 billion, has officially launched “PancakeSwap Infinity,” rebranding its v4 upgrade and introducing a suite of new features.

PancakeSwap Infinity – which is live on BNB Chain to start, with more chains coming soon – aims to provide more flexibility for traders and liquidity providers. It also lets developers build custom features using "hooks," such as trading fee discounts or dynamic rewards, according to a press release provided to The Defiant.

Other features include new liquidity pool types (LBAMM and CLAMM) and customizable fee structures. Significant gas optimizations have also been implemented, reducing pool creation costs by up to 99% and slashing gas fees for native swaps by 50%.

"The rebrand to Infinity reflects our vision for an open-ended future in DeFi," said Chef Kids, Head of PancakeSwap. "Infinity isn’t just a name; it represents the endless possibilities we see ahead. We want to create a platform that keeps evolving, grows with users’ needs, and always stays ahead of the curve."

CAKE, PancakeSwap’s native token, is currently trading at $2.05, up 2% since the rebrand went live, and 11% over the last two weeks, according to CoinGecko. CAKE currently boasts a market capitalization of $645 million.

The rollout of PancakeSwap Infinity follows the DEX’s best-ever quarterly performance. The DEX noted last week in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that it recorded around $205 billion in trading volume in Q1 2025, up 921% over Q1 2023.
