PancakeSwap just dropped a nuclear proposal: 69% emission cut on $CAKE
The numbers:
• Daily issuance slashed from 22,500 → 7,000 $CAKE (only 2.56M annually)
• v3 + Infinity pools: 88% to LPs, 12% to treasury
• 7k daily emissions redirected to Pantry for marketing/partnerships
Timeline: Nov 2026 - Jan 2027 if governance passes
$CAKE supply already down 11.5% in 18 months. Team targeting 20% total reduction by 2030.
The real question: Will cutting supply actually pump it?
Lower emissions = less sell pressure, but $CAKE needs real demand drivers beyond just supply squeeze. Ecosystem growth and utility will make or break this.
Watch the governance vote closely. This could be the catalyst $CAKE needs... or just another DEX trying to fix tokenomics without fixing product-market fit.
