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.

PancakeSwap burns massive amounts of CAKE, pushes price higher

CAKE price added nearly 3% to its value on Monday. There are two key events that likely catalyzed the rally in the DeFi token. The first is the $35 million CAKE token burn by the DEX. PancakeSwap burned the fees collected across V3, V4, NFTs, games, Automated Market Makers (AMM) and the prediction market.

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.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.
