This surge in activity has helped PancakeSwap to overtake Ethereum (ETH)-based Uniswap (UNI), which experienced a 50.56% decline in weekly trading activity. The trading volume has dropped to $8.611 billion despite maintaining a higher TVL of $3.93 billion.

PancakeSwap’s success could be because of multiple factors, including BNB Chain’s lower transaction fees compared to Ethereum, faster confirmation times, and the platform’s user-friendly interface. The exchange has particularly benefited from surging interest in BNB Chain-based meme coins.
