780+ Traders Pull $200M Transaction Volume

The PancakeSwap team is particularly delighted at the $200 million target, given that it comes in under two months after launching Arbitrum Perpetual V2. Moreover, the decentralized exchange highlighted the formidable army of traders, nearly one thousand of whom helped achieve the milestone.

“With over 780 active traders on perps v2, our community’s support has been incredible,” PancakeSwap remarked in the notification.

Recall that late in August, PancakeSwap expanded its offerings to include a new iteration of derivative contracts on the Ethereum Layer-two scaling solution, Arbitrum. The Crypto Basic reported that ApolloX Finance, the principal DEX for BNB Chain-based crypto derivatives, powers the Arbitrum Perpetuals v2.

In the launch month, PancakeSwap offered users what it described as the most competitive trading fees for derivatives contracts in the market. Specifically, users enjoyed a 0.05% fee rate following the August launch month.

According to the recent statement, PancakeSwap is maintaining the 0.05% fee structure. Moreover, the notification mentioned that users can earn 25% on its trading rewards program. The 25% applies to platform revenues while transacting on the Arbitrum Perpetuals v2.

Notably, PancakeSwap’s Perpetuals v2 is compatible with thirty trading pairs on the BNB network. However, only seven pairs are available on the Arbitrum Perpetuals v2.

PancakeSwap already stated in the launch notification that other pairs will be supported much later. The current tradable pairs include ETH/USD, ARB/USD, XRP/USD, BTC/USD, and DOGE/USD.
