PancakeSwap introduces SpringBoard, its own meme token launch platform

Source Cryptopolitan

PancakeSwap, the main decentralized exchange on Binance Smart Chain, will launch its own meme token launchpad, SpringBoard. Memes are already present on Binance Smart Chain, but the new platform will offer a code-free experience similar to Pump.fun. 

Until recently, PancakeSwap was a tool to bootstrap new tokens, and Binance Smart Chain was used for multiple high-profile memes. Now, PancakeSwap will carry its native platform for meme tokens, following the model of Pump.fun.  

The new platform, however, will allow anyone to create tokens without any coding experience. The new tool will be called PancakeSwap SpringBoard and will feature zero-fee tokens. The platform will use the CAKE token for building liquidity pairs. 

The platform already has 10 tokens with liquidity in BNB tokens since it launched.

The meme platform was created just as BNB Coin (BNB) began trading at a new all-time high above $780. BNB even flipped Solana to become one of the top 5 tokens based on market capitalization.

SpringBoard has an early leader, with Cava token already accruing $116K in market capitalization. The token appreciated by more than 362K%. Other new assets on the platform saw similar rapid expansions. 

SpringBoard follows the Pump.fun zero-fee model

SpringBoard will copy Pump.fun’s model. Each token will be generated for free and will trade in the bonding curve stage. Once the required liquidity is deposited, the pair will move to PancakeSwap. In addition to CAKE, token creators will be able to raise liquidity in BNB or USDT. 

The only payment will be the seeding fee, which will accrue based on a token’s available liquidity. Once a meme token graduates to the PancakeSwap DEX, a 2% fee on the liquidity will be levied, leaving 50% of the fee for SpringBoard. Tokens graduate to PancakeSwap after they appreciate to 24 BNB. 

Unlike previous launch platforms, PancakeSwap will not market or endorse the new meme tokens. Launch limitations apply to persons based in the USA and mainland China.

Previously, PancakeSwap helped raise liquidity through IDO or direct liquidity farming, also giving exposure to tokenized products. All tokens on SpringBoard must have a supply between 1M, a default of 1B tokens, and no upper limit to their supply. The bonding curve must raise a minimum of $2,000. Before graduating to PancakeSwap, new tokens will trade through the bonding curve, with a 0.001 BNB trading fee.

The new assets will come with a warning of extreme risk and volatility, including rug pulls. SpringBoard will go beyond memes, allowing the creation of community projects and even DeFi tokens. The platform’s main feature is the liquidity setup tools, using the native CAKE token. 

CAKE is currently trading at $4.08, still 90% away from its 2021 peak above $40. The token has recovered some of its positions in 2024, but still trades near its lower range. CAKE demand for new liquidity pairs may boost demand for the asset. 

Binance Smart Chain is a hub of DeFi activity  

Binance Smart Chain is already the third-largest network for memes, competing heavily with Base. The chain carries one of the top meme assets, Simon’s Cat (CAT), in addition to versions of Ethereum and Solana memes. 

The announcement of a new meme launchpad arrives after even XRPL tried out user-created tokens, though at much lower liquidity levels.

In the case of SpringBoard, the tokens have much higher liquidity from the start, as Binance Smart Chain users are skilled in token trading and sniping. For now, the new batch of BSC meme tokens do not have a specific brand, or high-profile memes, as the first users are testing out the platform.

PancakeSwap is currently expanding its activity, almost catching up with Raydium in terms of value locked. The DEX carries $2.1B in liquidity pairs, while Raydium has $2.31B. However, for PancakeSwap, those liquidity levels represent a baseline of organic growth, while Raydium has yet to consolidate its new meme token activity. 

PancakeSwap has also served as a DeFi hub. It has also accrued a lot of liquid trading pairs which it will add to the new batch of volatile meme assets.

Currently, PancakeSwap predominantly carries CAKE and BNB trading pairs, making up 50% of the volumes. An inflow of new tokens may add to the list of hundreds of legacy projects and memes created until now.

Bitcoin Slides 5% as Sellers Lean In — Can BTC Reclaim $88,000?Bitcoin has dropped back below $88,000 after rolling over from $90,500, with price still trading under the 100-hour Simple Moving Average. The sell-off found a floor at $85,151, and BTC is now consolidating near that base, but rebounds are facing pressure from a bearish trend line around $89,000. Bulls need to retake $88,000–$89,000 to ease downside risk; failure to do so keeps $85,500–$85,000 and then $83,500 in play, with $80,000 as the deeper “line in the sand.” Bitcoin (BTC) is back in damage-control mode after a sharp pullback wiped out recent gains. The price failed to reclaim the $90,000–$90,500 band, rolled over, and slid through $88,500 before briefly dipping under $87,000. Buyers did show up around $85,000, but the rebound so far looks more like stabilization than a clear trend reversal. Bitcoin dips hard, finds a bid near $85,000(h3) BTC’s latest move lower began when it couldn’t build follow-through above $90,000 and $90,500. Once that upside stalled, sellers took control and pushed price down through $88,500. The slide accelerated enough to spike below $87,000, but the market didn’t free-fall. Bulls defended the $85,000 zone, printing a low at $85,151. Since then, Bitcoin has been consolidating below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the drop from the $93,560 swing high to the $85,151 low — a clue that the bounce is still shallow and that sellers haven’t fully backed off yet. Structurally, BTC is still on the back foot: It’s trading below $88,000, and It remains below the 100-hour Simple Moving Average, keeping short-term trend pressure pointed downward. Resistance is layered, and $89,000 is the problem area(h3) If bulls try to turn this into a recovery, they’ll have to climb through multiple ceilings in quick succession. First, BTC faces resistance around $87,150, followed by a more meaningful barrier near $87,500. From there, the market’s attention snaps back to $88,000 — the level BTC just lost and now needs to reclaim. A close back above $88,000 would improve the tone, but it doesn’t solve the bigger issue: there’s a bearish trend line on the hourly BTC/USD chart (Kraken feed) with resistance near $89,000, which also lines up with the next technical hurdle. If BTC can push through $89,000 and hold, the rebound could extend toward $90,000, with follow-through targets at $91,000 and $91,500. But until price clears that $88,000–$89,000 zone, rallies are at risk of being sold rather than chased. If BTC fails to reclaim resistance, the downside path is clear(h3) The near-term bear case is simple: if Bitcoin can’t climb back above the $87,000 area and keep traction, sellers may attempt another leg lower. Support levels line up like this: Immediate support: $85,500 First major support: $85,000 Next support: $83,500 Then $82,500 in the near term Below that, the major “don’t break this” level is still $80,000. If BTC slips under $80,000, the risk of acceleration to the downside increases significantly — not because it’s magic, but because it’s the kind of psychological and structural level that tends to trigger forced de-risking. Indicators: momentum still leans bearish(h3) The intraday indicators aren’t offering much comfort yet: Hourly MACD is losing pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI remains below 50, suggesting sellers still have the upper hand on short timeframes. So while the $85,000 defense held for now, the market hasn’t flipped bullish — it’s just stopped bleeding.
