Proposal to Reduce CAKE’s Total Supply from 750 Million to 450 Million
The PancakeSwap community, making a significant move in the world of cryptocurrency, has proposed to reduce the total supply of CAKE. According to the proposal by the AMM community, PancakeSwap’s CAKE total supply would be reduced from 750 million to 450 million. If the proposal is accepted, the total supply of the altcoin will have decreased by approximately 40%. Currently, the circulating supply of CAKE is at 386.2 million.
The price of the altcoin sharply increased following the proposal to reduce the total supply. Before the proposal, CAKE’s price was at $2.26, and it rose over 15% to reach $2.53. The outlook suggests that the altcoin has just gained momentum and the rise could continue.
As is known, PancakeSwap stands out as a leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that allows users to trade tokens, provide liquidity through farming, and earn passive income in return.
The Relationship Between Supply Limit and Price in Altcoins
Altcoins are typically characterized as decentralized digital assets with a limited supply. Having a specific supply limit, and especially keeping it low, can contribute to the asset being seen as a potential store of value because a limited supply often supports an increase in value.
Moreover, most altcoins are usually resistant to inflation. Once a certain supply limit is reached, the issuance of new tokens/coins stops, which helps prevent inflation. In traditional currencies, central banks often control the money supply, which can bring the risk of inflation or devaluation.
