As of Nov. 2023, PancakeSwap achieved a net mint of -351,962 CAKE, noting that more CAKE tokens were burned than minted during the month.

PancakeSwap burns CAKE tokens in an effort to make deflation higher than emission by building deflationary mechanisms into its products. As noted on PancakeSwap’s official website, the goal is “for more CAKE to leave circulation than the amount of CAKE that’s produced.”

With the latest update, CAKE now has a hard cap of 750 million tokens. However, the developers admitted they don’t want to reduce token emission too frequently in a bid to “still incentivize people to provide liquidity.”
