The BakerySwap DeFi protocol is built on Binance Smart Chain and operates as a decentralized exchange (DEX) powered by an automated market maker (AMM). While its main offering is the BakerySwap exchange, the ecosystem also includes an NFT marketplace and additional earning options.

Overall, the platform is designed as an all-in-one place for yield farming and staking, along with a launchpad and NFT-related activities. It was among the earliest AMMs created for Binance Smart Chain, aiming to take advantage of the network’s lower fees and quicker transaction times compared with other chains such as Ethereum. BAKE is BakerySwap’s native token, used across the different services available on the platform.

What are BakerySwap’s key features and how does it work?

BakerySwap operates much like other AMMs, such as UniSwap on Ethereum. With AMMs, smart contracts enable token swaps directly, without a middleman. Traders interact with a liquidity pool rather than relying on order books. On BakerySwap, every token pair is built using Binance’s native BNB as the base asset.

The liquidity pools on BakerySwap are created when users supply liquidity to the different pools available on the platform. As noted, BakerySwap provides multiple ways to earn, and adding liquidity is one of them. Liquidity providers receive trading fees as BakerySwap liquidity pool (BLP) tokens, which are allocated based on the share of liquidity contributed.

Those BLP tokens can then be staked to potentially earn more rewards in the form of BAKE, or they can be exchanged back into the same token that was originally deposited. The return potential depends on the liquidity pool selected, since each pool supports different token pairings. For example, the Bread liquidity pool lets users stake BAKE to earn more BAKE, while the Doughnut pool allows users to stake BAKE-BNB BLP to earn BAKE.

Users can also stake BAKE to earn NFTs. Any NFTs earned can be listed for sale on BakerySwap’s NFT supermarket. The NFT Supermarket contains a wide-ranging assortment of NFTs that can be traded, purchased, or sold. To complement the NFT Supermarket, BakerySwap also provides an NFT gallery called Bakery Gallery, which showcases a curated set of NFTs and features artists. NFTs can be purchased using BAKE.

What makes BakerySwap noteworthy?

Beyond the features above, BakerySwap has built its own crypto launchpad that enables projects to run IDOs through the platform. Participants can join an IDO by holding a specified amount of BAKE. It’s important to note, though, that the launchpad tokens can be bought using Binance Stablecoin (BUSD).
