As a researcher with a background in blockchain technology and decentralized finance, I’m excited about the recent announcement by PancakeSwap regarding their community reward program. Having closely followed the developments in the multi-chain DEX space, I can attest to the significant strides made by PancakeSwap since their deployment on zkSync last summer.


Starting July 5 and continuing until August 5, popular decentralized exchange (DEX) platform, PancakeSwap, has unveiled an extensive community rewards program.

In the scope of this undertaking, PancakeSwap intends to dispense approximately 2.45 million zkSync (ZK) tokens as a token of gratitude to its dedicated community members in recognition of their commitment towards the zkSync integration with PancakeSwap since July 2023. The purpose of this airdrop is twofold: it aims to acknowledge the efforts of long-term contributors while also extending rewards to recently active participants who engage positively with PancakeSwap.

As a researcher, I’ve discovered that according to the latest blog announcement, veCAKE holders and previous contributors are entitled to join the airdrop event. To be eligible, users must link their wallets to the PancakeSwap main page, then adhere to the instructions provided in the pop-up notification to successfully claim their allotted ZK tokens.

In the event that tokens go unclaimed, they will instead be designated for use within the PancakeSwap platform, facilitating forthcoming improvements and communal initiatives.

Since its launch on zkSync Era, the exchange team announced they’ve made substantial advancements. During this timeframe, they rolled out essential functionalities including Swap functionality for smooth transactions, Yield Farming for earning rewards, Prediction Markets for making predictions and betting, Fiat On-Ramp for easy fiat currency access, Position Manager for managing open positions, and Syrup Pools for liquidity provision.

Through these initiatives, the platform has managed to exceed a trading volume of $3 billion, boasting a significant TVL amounting to many millions, and a total of more than 1.9 million registered traders.

At PancakeSwap, we’re passionate about growing a vibrant community and recognizing the loyalty of our users. The ZK token distribution is a testament to our gratitude towards our dedicated supporters and active participants. Join us in seizing this chance to reap the rewards from the airdrop and collaboratively shape the destiny of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) with PancakeSwap.
