PancakeSwap Yield Farms and Syrup Pools

In this article, we will go over Pancake’s decentralized features: Yield Farming and Syrup Staking Pools! This should shed some light before going into them and how they function so you can get the best performance possible!

PancakeSwap Yield Farms #

Don’t mix up yield farming and liquidity provision on PancakeSwap!

When your original assets are used in exchange transactions, your original asset amounts increase. Yield farming involves depositing one set of tokens to produce another set of tokens.

PancakeSwap produces farms when you select the Farms tab. You’ll want to switch the toggle to Live farms so you can see what’s going on right now. There should be a long list of options populating the page, including many farms with BUSD and BNB base pairs.

Click on the Details tab to see how much each farm earns in CAKE. A number of PancakeSwap farms earn well over 200% APY, such as DUSK-BNB.

PancakeSwap will prompt you to unlock your wallet after clicking Details to detect the currencies inside and allow them to be deposited into the farm. After you have deposited, your CAKE earnings will appear on the page.

The initial farm offering (IFO) #

The IFO, or Initial Farm Offering, is a new ICO model that PancakeSwap is spearheading.

IFOs allow CAKE-BNB liquidity providers to buy a new project’s tokens. You can join one if you are already a CAKE-BNB liquidity provider — just deposit your LP tokens on the IFO page.

You’ll need CAKE-BNB LP tokens to participate in an IFO if you don’t already have them. Decide your total contribution amount, then buy 50% BNB tokens and 50% CAKE tokens equal to that amount. In order to receive your LP tokens, deposit those tokens into the CAKE-BNB liquidity pool.

As soon as the IFO is finished, you’ll receive the project’s tokens in exchange for your LP tokens.

PancakeSwap Syrup Pools #

Now that you understand how PancakeSwap and yield farming work, here comes yet another pool that is different from all the others.

In PancakeSwap Syrup Pools, you stake your CAKE tokens in exchange for a Binance Smart Chain project’s new token. It works by depositing your CAKE token into a pool to receive the project’s BEP-20 token in return.

In exchange for the shiny new token that might rise in value, the project gets liquidity bootstrapping and an immediate listing on PancakeSwap.

You can enter a Syrup Pool by clicking on Pools, finding the one that appeals to you (do your own research! ), then depositing your CAKE and receiving new tokens.

Conclusion #

PancakeSwap offers a wide variety of Community and Core Farms/Syrup Pools to be a part of. Those that are labeled “Core” are published directly from the team, and those labeled “Community” come from the the governance of the community.

Since PancakeSwap is the largest decentralized exchange on the Binance Smart-Chain, it will continue to keep adding new pools and farms for its community in the future.

It is one of the easiest and most trusted DEX to use!

Our mission here at RugDoc is to screen for hard rug code that results in 100% theft of ALL underlying funds for ALL participants.

This is the ONE part of the due diligence process that most people cannot simply do on their own as it costs thousands of dollars to hire a senior solidity developer to look over a farm for safety.

A project coin with terrible code can go up in price, and a project with good code and a good team can also go down in price.

Do NOT use our ratings to refer to your likelihood in making money if you invest in the project. They are ONLY in reference to code safety.

Everything else beyond code safety is YOUR responsibility to go do research on. We just make sure the casino you’re betting in won’t rob you before you even get to place a bet.

Our reviews for projects are organized into a few colors.

🟢 Least Risk
These projects are the least likely to hard or soft rug. Usually reserved for cornerstone projects of an ecosystem where it makes no financial sense for them to rug in any manner as they make more money just being legit.

🔵 Low Risk
These projects are usually established projects in an ecosystem that have a track record of success or have KYC’d to us or other authoritative sources in the real world. As a result, it is extremely unlikely for them to soft rug or hard rug their projects. The projects can still fail and the token price can go down, but usually more as a result of natural market forces.

⚪️ Some Risk
This is the default rating for projects with unknown teams but have code that is unlikely to have hard rug risk. Since the team is unknown and doesn’t have a track record of success, it’s entirely possible that they may try to soft rug by dumping tokens, abandoning the project, etc. Even a last minute contract swap to a malicious contract is possible. The only thing that is unlikely is a complete hard rug as long as you are 100% sure you deposit into the contract we review.

🟠 Medium Risk
Similar to Some Risk, but the underlying code itself is custom enough or complex enough that it warrants an elevated risk rating that needs deeper research. Make sure you read every point presented to make sure you’re comfortable with that before entering. Still unlikely to hard rug, but more chances of custom code behaving incorrectly and causing other issues.

🔴 High Risk
Project contains code or practices that are HIGHLY LIKELY to lead to catastrophic losses as they are right now. Make sure you read the description carefully as we will always warn what these issues are. If you see the words Hard Rug anywhere in the review, STAY FAR AWAY!

⚫️ Not Eligible
We reserve the right to not review exceedingly complex projects that would require tens of thousands of dollars of senior security analyst man hours. Typically these are projects that deal with leverage, lending, options, derivatives, and anything that is overly complex and which requires tons of peer reviews and audits from top audit companies.
