Source Fxstreet

PancakeSwap DEX burned over 8.7 million CAKE tokens worth $35 million on Monday.
The decentralized exchange burns trading fees collected across V3 and V4, prediction market, lottery, NFTs and games.
CAKE price climbed nearly 3% on Monday to $4.039.

PancakeSwap (CAKE) announced a burn of 8,703,247 CAKE on Monday, pulling $35 million worth of DeFi tokens from circulation. The DEX’s move catalyzed gains in the asset. A key announcement by PancakeSwap regarding a collaboration with Stryke is likely another catalyst driving gains in the DEX’s native token CAKE.

The DEX announced the token burn in an official tweet on X.

The other catalyst is PancakeSwap’s introduction of CLAMM Options Trading, in collaboration with Stryke, a decentralized options exchange. PancakeSwap users can trade options, build on-chain options liquidity, earn premiums and swap fees on Arbitrum.
